Cliff, this is a good idea but it might be worthwhile first of all to check with Norman Kilgariff who has the Holdsworth/CB/Grubb website at: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nkilgariff/

Norman has been collecting Holdsworth numbers but I don't know if he's extended that to include the other two marques.
