Data restored from a 1981 survey show that a majority of Iowans believed cars made in the United States were of the best quality and favored restricting the number of cars foreign manufacturers could sell in the United States. These data come from Iowa Poll #248, a random sample survey of 1011 Iowans from April of 1981, which has been restored as part of a larger project to recover lost data from past Iowa polls.
