These record-keeping problems seem to be more prevalent for cars that were built in relatively small quantities by coachbuilders such as Vignale, Zagato, ISO, etc.
But, methinks you already knew that.

No arguement here, I only posted an opinion, based on what I am lead to believe by people who have credability. No one is ever 100% correct.
