    Production numbers
    « on: February 28, 2011 - 08:43:27 PM »
    Anyone know how I can find out how many 71 R/T challengers were made in plum crazy?  Is there a site to find out production numbers for any challenger?

    There weren't any records kept of how many cars were made of each color.  Purple is a popular color.

    They lumped all 1971 Challengers together, so it is not possible to know the percentage of just the R/T models in purple.

    Very cool, Barry.  Hard to imagine that Top Banana was the least popular color!

    It was not available initially, so that may be part of the reason?
