In the upper right hand corner, it says there were 154 cars in DSO 72-0406, but there were 155 cars ordered by the CHP in 1985. So the missing car was likely the pilot car for the new model year.

Where did the 155 number come from?

Ok....found something.

For '89, 201827 is completely separate from the batch beginning with 211169.

Again, not sure how this turned into a discussion about CHP pilots.

That way, they can keep with their policy of only giving the actual paper copy of the invoice to the owner of the vehicle and we could see what one of the invoices says. They might have better luck finding a sample if they're looking for any of a possible 400, instead of just one.
I just sent an email to Kevin at Marti Auto to ask him about this. Stay tuned!

Jim, we now know your car served in Sonora, CA, as confirmed by your assignment card which surfaced this summer. With that part of California being mountainous/snowy, I wonder if the CHP welded that bracket on to make it easier to pull your car out of a ditch? Just a guess...
