how many are left?

[Cobrajet]

large vehicle manufacturers do not try new models out for sales potential in miniscule numbers and then build thousands more the next year if it attracts sales. They launch new models on a large scale and hope for the best. I don't know of any hand-assembled trial level new model experiments in the big-player car industry in the past fifty years. We're talking about the age of mass production here, especially for General Motors.

How about the 1964 Pontiac GTO?

The GTO was a rebadged version of a much higher production number Tempest, with a more powerful engine. So they had the bodies anyway, try a few with more HP, low risk.
