Eureka Highboy ambulances

In my recent endeavor of missing out on the 57 in Ca, lead me to a question of how many of these cars were made. I know the one in Ca was a mess but I have never seen another other than Neils 59 and Mr. Mcdonalds 64. So my question is does anyone know of any production numbers on them?

57-1 (probably crushed)
58-?
59-1
60-?
61-?
62-?
63-?
64-1

I saw a real basket case of a '62 many years ago outside of Milwaukee. I seem to remember that the fellow who owned it was a lawyer. I may have a very old print picture of it. If I can find it, I'll scan and post. Tom

Here are a few more Eureka hightops from my photo collection. The '61 looks like it's in a junkyard so it may still be there.

No production figures are listed in the Eureka book. Seems like just a handful each year.

The '59 that was formerly owned by Neil Parish was sold overseas some years ago. And it was immortalized in an episode of "The Simpsons".

After seeing that red and white 60 I remember one being for sale several years ago but it was over seas.
