Dang, that's a good question. I started looking for an answer on the web. There are guys who claim they have number 511 or 53 or whatever of the 515 but they don't say how they authenticate that.

I saw his web page. Fan dang tastic looking car and excellent detail shots. Great write up too. But his blog doesn't say where to find it either. Must be a secret HO club thing.

Contact Karl Sarpolis (karlskorner@msn.com), he is the H/OCA 1968 H/O advisor. He can tell you by your VIN the Demmer # and I think the selling dealership. The Demmer number will not be the 'production' number, but it will be close. From what I understand, Demmer assigned the numbers as the received the cars, parked them out back and then pulled them in to make the modifications. So if you have something like Demmer # 400, then it's probably within 10 cars either way of production.
