 :iagree:Yep, that would be one to do some investigating to just see how rare it may be, sure seems to have the options that would make it a very low production # car. Invest in it for sure, you got a sweet ride there!

Hi,  Thats some car your Dad ordered,I,m glad you ended up with it.
I do have a few stats for your car so here goes.
These numbers are for 1971 challenger convertible only.

Of all the 71 challenger converts built.

7.2  %  came equipped with the wide nose chrome.
4.9  %  came with 340 engines
0.7  %  came with 340 / 4 sd
8.2  %  came equipped with the wire wheel hub caps
45.2 %  came eqipped with the body side moulding ( your picture looks like it has this)
I don,t know how many came in gold -sorry  ( if it were a 1970 I could )

Could tell you more if I had more info on your car,,sheet/tag (don,t need to know your V I N number)

So if you want to know more,get in touch.    Shes a keeper       426
as long as its a mopar
