# of 356 B S-90 Cabs ?

#1 Post by Garry Wolf »

Hello fellow 356'ers. I am trying to find out how many 1963-B Super 90 Cabriolets were manufactured? Is there any way to find this out? So far, I have not been able to determine this. If anyone knows where to find this information, please get back to me.

Thank you very much.

Garry,

I don't think I have ever seen published information addressing your question. And others have asked the same and similar questions.

One way to put an upper bound on the number is to look at the total number of S90 engines made.

A reasonable refinement is to look at the ratio of coupes to cabriolets and apply that to the engine total. The last refinement I can think of is to recognize the idea that cabriolets were more expensive than coupes, so it seems likely that the more deluxe body style would more often have the top engine.

Real data would be nice!
