I doubt the columns will hold but as you can see from the 'Official'
numbers there were 25 Cokes and 5 Gads built. That was for the contest. I
have found 5 more GadAbouts that were built for the bottlers' use. I have
26 Cokes listed presently and 10 GadAbouts.
As for PB's Vs EL II's, the EL II's win the high production numbers prize
every year.
