[DML] DeLorean VIN list and chronology updated

["ksgrimsr" <knut.s.grimsrud@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

I have just had the updated VIN list and chronology uploaded. It is 
buried in the FAQ on the DMCNews web site, and the direct link to it 
is http://www.dmcnews.com/faq/n_chron.htm

I had intended to get the list posted some time back, but I had my 
hands full with the concours which delayed me a bit on this front. 
Since the list was actually generated a while back, it might not 
include a couple of the most recently submitted entries. Such 
entries will be included in the next published list.

As usual, I had a whole bunch of entries with conflicting 
information, and in most cases I just took an educated guess about 
which data from the various conflicting entries might be correct. I 
am now carefully tracking the sources and dates for the information 
submitted (previsouly I largely just threw everything together 
without carefully tracking it all), so if I have guessed wrong for 
any entries, please submit a correction and I will fix and track 
them properly.

The VIN list now represents around 4400 vehicles which is a pretty 
good sampling. Some years back I used to do some statistics on the 
samples in order to estimate the total production run, but this is 
no longer feasible since the samples in the database are not all 
uncorrelated, which messes up the statistical methods I used to use.

I hope you enjoy the list and some of the build mix and location 
summaries I derived from it.

     Knut
