Some statistics on the 2017 404C cars that have been registered.

Cabriolet: 1333 = 12.8%
Coupé: 633 = 9.5%
C (type unknown): 51 - probably most of these are Cabriolets but it is hard to know for sure.

1962 Model: 657 cars made, 65 registered = 9.89%
1963 Model: 2181 cars made, 163 registered = 7.47%
1964 Model: 2252 cars made, 152 registered = 6.75%
1965 Model: 3477 cars made, 287 registered = 8.25%
1966 Model: 2903 cars made, 374 registered = 12.88%
1967 Model: 2904 cars made, 439 registered = 15.12%
1968 Model: 2427 cars made, 390 registered = 16.07%
1969 Model (post July 1968 production): 424 cars made, 147 registered = 34.67%
(please note that adding all the year-totals up results in 17,225 cars....and also the highest known Carrosserie number of a 404C is 17256, so more than 17,223 were probably made)

1402 registered cars with Injection engine = 69.51%
614 registered cars with Carburetor engine = 30.44%
(a few are unknown, cars identified by only Carrosserie Peugeot number, not VIN)

Surviving Registered Cars: 1956 = 96.98%
Scrapped Registered Cars: 61 = 3.02%

155 registered cars have the Nardi Floor gearshift lever
19 registered cars have the Jaeger sports instrument panel
16 registered cars are Right Hand Drive

Here is a photo of 4590385. It has a 1967-68 type front end - a conversion often done following a collision back in the day. Whether the car will have the original type of front end fitted at the restoration is unknown to me.
