good grief. Tell us, precisely what isn't factual there?
The "World Registry" has become an obsolete work. Noone cares any more, and what in it made it the sole source? It's a collection of random facts. And it's relevance is asymptotically approaching zero. Since it now includes only originals, and since the pay grade of all of the original owners is way above anything what that book includes, it's market is those interested academically in one or more of the cars. It's a coffee table book at best. Eliminating the replicas cut the potential customer base in more than half and alienated the owners that were in the book so they won't buy one at all, probably not even the previous version. Brilliant going out of business strategy. I almost bought one until I saw what it had and then went to a public location and photographed some relevant pages and saved myself a whole bunch of money. Is it printed in stock in a warehouse or is now print on demand? Or will it be printed at all?
