Nope. The only "records" are of year, model, engine and trans and even then they are in most cases scheduled build numbers, not actual production numbers albeit they would be very close to the production numbers. Only way you'll find out what JS23N cars had what options is to have all JS23N cars ever built in one huge field and go through them, putting them into groups with their associated options. There is no way of knowing, unfortunately. If you do a search on "column shift" cars you may bring up some good topics. I asked 3 or 4 years back on this site about JS23U0 cars with column shift AND bucket seats. Not many of them around, only found 1 or 2 if that. Plenty with column and bench and more with the 383 option. Best of luck.

Hi mate, nice to see you over here. Yup, very happy indeed. Back to your question, yup, sucks but we can't do much except for what you're doing. The "older" generation MoPar owners have been around many shows so getting feedback on what they have seen or even owned is about as good as we can get when it comes to option breakdowns. Some of the very rare cars like sunroof cars are broken down but I think it's still a case of "1 of # known to be built".

True, but you might find out how many R/T's total or Challenger's as a whole were built with column shift, this would be in percentage form; i.e. 5.9% or the like. Start with those numbers first - then proceed if possible. Nick
