Does anyone know how many Gambler Silver Crown cars where built.

GILLUM1,
THE 1ST I'M 99.9% SURE WAS THE #86 HILL & KEARNEY SPCL, IT WAS THE CAR THAT HAD THE COCK-PIT ADJUSTABLE HYDRAULIC WEIGHT JACKS, MIKE PETERS, KEN SCHRADER & BILL VUKOVICH I KNOW DROVE IT. BILL DESTROYED IT IN A HEART STOPPING CRASH AT THE USAC/NCRA RACE IN OKC. I'M 90% SURE THAT CAR WAS NOT FIXED. THERE WAS A SECOND H&K GAMBLER BUT I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT BECAME OF IT.
MARK ALDERSON ALSO HAD A GAMBLER SILVER CROWN CAR THAT HE RAN FOR AT LEAST A COUPLE OF YEARS, ALSO FAIRLY SURE THAT MAURI AMERLING HAD ONE THAT DAVE BLANEY RAN AT A FEW SHOWS.
THERE WASN'T ALOT OF THEM BUILT MAYBE 6-8 TOTAL IF THAT MANY. OF COURSE THIS DOESN'T COUNT THE 100" NCRA CHAMP CARS THAT RAN THE USAC/NCRA EVENTS AND THERE WERE A FEW OF THEM.
HOPE THIS HELPS
DAVID
