per john hull's book there were 158 1989 avantis built, starting with #400, thru #557. bob johnson has ken kidwell's blown '89 as #563!  we all know the avanti numbers aren't etched in stone; could there be a documented breakdown between the number of coupes built vs converts? educated guesses welcome also.

Only if someone retained the original Youngstown production records for that period of time.

Stranger things have happened!:)

looking at the aoai roster and pictures it appears that the kidwell car was entered twice, once as #536 and then as #563, the last two numbers apparently transposed. a great looking car but probably shouldn't be there twice!

Thank you!  Until confirmed otherwise, I will assume that it is 536.  I have noticed other Avantis entered twice.
