There may have been more than 100 built, becaus years later ther was an ad in either Hemmings or Cars and Parts advertising 100 of the vehicles for sale stating that they were in a warehouse. I personally remember seeing this ad. It covered a full page.

Welcome Ed.
I suppose there must have been a sale of original Renault engines then as well....although it could also be that not all 100 cars mentioned in the ad were already fully converted before the project faltered.
