Remember, GGs figures came straight from Chrysler Corp.

Just out of curiousity, when and where did Galen come up with these records? I'm assuming it was before they all got thrown in the dumpster in the late 70's-early 80's?

Galen got "into" all of this in the early 80s. The IBM cards for the 1968 and newer cars have been destroyed with conflicting stories as to it being a fire or a flooded basement that ended their life.

The production figures were something that was kept seperately and MAY still exist. However Chrysler will no longer 'talk" to just anyone about them, you have to have an "in."

The V.I.N. break down for a 1969 /6 Charger are as follows:
X=Charger
P=Premium price class
29=2 door hardtop
B=225 6 cylinder engine
9=1969 model year
?=assembly plant ? is because they were built in
differnet plants
the last 6 digits are the sequence number

Let me put this another way. If Galen told me the sky was blue, I'd step outside and check for myself.

Aside from that, 442w30, I understand exactly what you're trying to get across here.
