If I remember correctly, the total number of Beaumonts built was around 74,000 or so. That was also from Ken's old site. I hated to see that site dissapear. There was some good info on there.

I never bothered to get the documents when I had it. The two guys who bought it each have an SD, one 66 and one 67. They are Beaumont guys so they may have got the papers for it by now.

Looks like its safe to say there were over 17,000 69 Beau's made. How many were exported ?  Is that were we get 120000 ? Around 5000 exported.

with the charts posted from before it looks like 3 or 4 cars on average a day for export,but they were 67 cars,dont see to many 69 s exported,think the chile cars are probally not included in those numbers as they were assembled in arica.

its just a mystery?
