After the Pilot cars came the real Production cars. These are the real cars built on the production line and destined for the regular consumers to purchase. We have the complete list of VIN only for the Talladega. As for the Spoiler, Spoiler II, Color Code Car and GT 500 we have no available list of the first or last cars built. We know that all of the Talladega Family of cars were built in batches buyt outside of the Talladega no good records have yet been located regarding the additional information on the other cars.
