Default Re: $5 Million Dollar HEMI CUDA Convertible!!

I was talking about 1971 Hemicudas, and F8 was not available in 1971.

However, in 1970, F8 was not the most popular color for the Charger R/T. Check out http://host219.ipowerweb.com/~1970ch.../RT_Codes.html and you'll see there are at least two other colors that were built in greater numbers.

Also, you'll see from that site that approximately 1452 Charger R/T SEs were built. If you apply (statistically incorrectly, might I add) the 1.2% of Hemi production to that, it comes to 17 or so, so I guess we know the number "14" doesn't come from that incorrect math.

14 are registered in Galens Registry. There is a possibility Chrysler built more. Doubtful though. Galens numbers don't imply production numbers in many cases. Just vehicles registered.

2 known 70 Hemi-Challengers with factory T/A hoods listed in his regsistry. Are there more? Maybe. In 25 years he's only found 2. Mine and a Triple Black drag car. It was parted out 20 years ago. Their were so called rumors of the factory running out of Shakers in late 70 and replacing the N96 Shaker hood with N94 T/A hoods. More myth then fact.
