However, according to https://www.autoweek.com/car-life/a1924561/riding-1966-peugeot-403b/ only a couple of dozen remaining in the U.S. but I haven't been able to find how many there were originally. I thought all European cars were rare in the U.S. at the time. Possibly with the exception of Mercedes and Volvo.

You forgot Rolls-Royces, driven by ill informed people with more money than sense under the mistaken impression that they are a sort of DeLuxe Bentley. The Peugeot convertible belonged to a scruffy one-eyed tv detective called Columbo. -- Last edit: 2024-01-15 12:16:18
