This is an update to the January 14, 2025 posting of the Registry. Yellow highlights are "new" information. We now have real info on 81 cars, about 17 percent of the 485 produced. Again, I have a list of about 280 VINs, but it's only VINs from a 300 Club list, no other information. Amazingly, our random Registry detective work has found 19 cars that are NOT in the 300 Club list. 
Since the last posting exactly six months ago--with the great help of more than a few of you--we have nine new Hursts listed. Several of these were "found" in the postings above since last January, and it took me a while to find corroborating info such as DS and VON data, etc. We also have new data on 194408, where all I had before was "Located in Bradenton, FL. Well.....the car turns up at the recent BBTR event and we now the Door Sticker date and the VON. Our Euro correspondent also provided a new finding, 228779 and the VON, but unfortunately no Door Sticker. We can safely assume it's a June car....until @69CoronetRT spanks me for assuming ANYTHING with these damn Hursts.
Long ago I saw a Hurst at a car show in the Tidewater VA area. A few months ago I remembered that a friend was taking pics back then and I asked him to send them to me. In those pics was a "show placard" at the front bumper that had the owner's name. The search was on--long story--but I found the car's owner, made a call (many calls), and arranged for my Tidewater friend to visit the car with his camera in hand. I'll soon make a post about that AMAZING time capsule find, 199992.
Again, I've done the best I could with the image below. I know it's fuzzy and I hate it, too. It starts as a very clear Excel file, copied and pasted to Paint, and saved as a PNG file that is compatible with uploading here. That's what I have been doing thus far, and is exactly what the Interweb says to do. If anyone has a better method that doesn't require me to attend Stanford for a remedial IT degree or buy some program that I would have no other use for, I'm all ears. Make it easy on me, please.
