1971 Challenger production numbers
« on: January 26, 2012 - 06:36:47 AM »
Hi, I'm restoring a 1971 dodge challenger 340 RT and would like to find out as much information regarding production numbers as possible. I've search the web and cannot find anything on how many 340 RT's were built. If possible even narrow it down to how many automatic as well. If anybody here can guide me in the right direction I would appreciate it. Some particulars on my car are

340 RT
GY8 (Gold metalic paint)
Black vinyl top
Black Stripes
column automatic
green interior

The cars currently been restored and will be ready this spring. I'm planning on taking it to Vegas and would like this information for my display sign.

Thanks

1971 Dodge Challenger R/T 340 Automatic = 731 (313 4-speed and 34 3-speed, so a total of 1079 R/T 340)

Any numbers on non R/T 340 cars?

I'm going to assume the 731 is both console and column mounted auto shifter...

Column auto has got to be much rarer.

And with that color combination, I wouldn't be surprised if it's not a 1-of-1...
