V8X on Challenger?

[Super Blue 72]

I'm a bit confused now 
 This is right out of the  Challenger & Barracuda Restoration Guide 1967-1974
Unless I am reading this wrong 
V8X is right above V8R
 

Is that the book by Paul Herd?  If so, I've noticed some little mistakes here and there also.  But look at the side exhaust on that AAR Cuda in the pic.

Is that one factory?  The angle and the tips look wrong.    Looks almost as if there are no mufflers?

look on the bottom of the page

The AAR pictured is one of the pilot cars. (pre-production)

The 1970 dealer data book and the trim selector have mistakes too. They were usually printed up before they had all the details nailed down 100%.

There is another error on this page, can you spot it?

I see it lists the 340 performance package as available with the R/T. The 340 was not in the R/T lineup until '71 right?

[Alaskan_TA]

Actually, the N/A is "not available" so that part is right.

You are right about the 340 availabilty for 1971 though.

On the stripe page the yellow (gold) bumble bee stripe is missing; V9Y       (and some other colors)

[Alaskan_TA]

There are a few V9_ stripes not listed there that are known to exist now. 


What else? 

[KFD]

The Magenta and Sublime florescent stripes?

the Challenger with the faked tag is on Ebay again

That's probably where they got that code from to make the tag.

I'll take a stab.  The bumbkebee stripe was available on a base Challanger with the A66 340 Package.  In fact, it was standard but could be deleted.   

[Alaskan_TA]

Nope. I was reffering to an error in the text actually.

Hey Barry,  Did you mean the bit in the text about V88 ?

[2TAGS]

I might need another hint.  If it's spelling I'm screwed.   

[2TAGS]

I'm with hemiiken.  Why would there be a V88 code for a stripe delete when the stripes were optional?   Would it show on the tag?
