That is correct. There were several cars, Dodge and Plymoth B-bodies, that have been documented. The reason that they "snuck out" is that the engine was not emissions certified for 1972 and it's existance as a production vehicle was something of a legal violation. They were built during initial drivetrain testing/pilot vehicle production and then sold off as used cars or crushed.

"V" would be the correct code for a 440 Six Pack. "U" would be a 440 Magnum 4 barrel.

Yep , Sam said he was going to look at a 72 440+6 GTX, code would be V for 6 pac.

To date 2 ralley chargers and 2 roadrunners have been documented ,but no 72 GTX , U code for 440 4 bbl and V code for six pack.

You have got to have a look at the car though.,
Half the fun in the car hobby is the car chase,

good luck Sam. pacecar
