How many 68 HEMI chargers were built?

A good friend of the family has a nice collection of Mopars including two HEMI chargers. One is a 70 and the other a 68
When I saw the cars last summer for the first time I couldn't believe my eyes . The 68 is turquoise with white vynil roof and white interior. ALL numbers match motor, trans, rear etc original untouched car. As far as I know they made 49 HEMI chargers in 68, am I right on that??
The 70 is an original HEMI car as well but the drivetrain is not numbers matching.
Just curious from those in the know how many were made??
Oh it's a 727 car and not a stick.
Thanks in advance for any help

      In 1968 I believe there were 475 Hemi Chargers built and in 1970 there were 112 built.

I only heared of two LL1 coloured 68 Hemis.
One of them belonged to Troy. Had the colour combo you described
