From the mid 80s, I have had and been eaten up with RT/SE and struggled with the desire of knowing production numbers like the next guy.  Agree we apparently will never really know.  Tan Top, has an excellent point, based on observation and know low 4spd count on RTs anyway, the SE would be the luxury option.  SE's cars (w/ no RT) over time seem to be maybe fewer then RTSE actually, so I lean toward the higher number of maybe as much as 75% of SE where also RTs, continuing to wag at it, so say percentage of RT as 4spd.  How about a range, urban legand as said - RTSE 4spd range maybe 400-800car as part of  :drool5:2200-3000 RTSEs.  Wait, if you removed all the green, gold and red cars, how many then? :shruggy:  Or move specifically last four month w/ F6

i have posted pics up a long while ago. i took over 2 years off from the car. i took it apart and it was supposed to be painted but loooong story short it still has the same paint and im building a 440 and putting it back together. it was a trpile green car from the factory. now its a bright yellow color/black interior/black vinyl roof. i dont have any pics on this computer but ill get some on here soon and post it up.

The number for 4 speeds in an RTSE are almost a third.  I did have an article on it about 15 or 20 years ago.  1300ish..... Mines the real deal 4 speed RTSE with 4:10's out of the box.
No, it ain't a Hemi.....thank God!

Did the author of the article have factory documentation to back up that number or was it just another 'guestimate'?

It is not possible to cross reference two options and come up with a credible number of cars produced because you have to assume facts not in evidence. The numbers just don't work that way.

Darn, so close.  What are you selling it for and what could you basically tell us about it?

I hadn't given it a lot of thought yet (selling), but a guy was asking me what it would take for me to sell it last weekend.  I gave him a number, and he said he'd think about it (but I'm sure I won't hear from him).  I already have another car ('70 B7 GTX) and just dont have as much time as I used to for two cars, so the Charger would be the one to go.  Not that I need to sell it, but I'm sure there are others out there that could enjoy it more than I can these days.  Anyhow. a Western car all it's life.  Trunk pan replaced, all other metal is original (with original undercoating still there). Has the original tranny but the block looks to be a warrenty (no numbers, but all date codes are correct). Everything was redone/rebuilt to stock specs, including the exhaust. It's no trailer queen, but a nice local show car. Have two buildsheets, and a picture of the car early in it's life.  The fender tag is a repro from the buildsheets.  I've had it for about 3 years, and bought it mostly as it is now from a guy in Gold Country here in Cali.  I did some finishing work on it, and found any missing pieces.  Everything works, and the only missing item is the power steering cooler and the original carb (I found a NOS 4640 Carter AVS which is a suitable replacement, and also correctly date coded). If anyone really wants to know more, PM me.

I had one and sold it to a member on this site. When i was searching figures. I found there were approx. 632 made with a four speed R/T S/E. Not sure if that figure is right or not.

Whatever the initial production was, they had a better survival rate than their baseline brothers.

There is no way to know how many were produced.

You can know how many R/Ts came with the SE option.
You can know how many R/T's came with a four speed.
You cannot know how many R/Ts came with a combination of two options whether it's A/C and an AM radio or the SE option and a four speed.
