rt, se, 4spd production numbers

[sparkybr74mr]

Does anybody have any idea how many 70 r/t, se, 4spd's were produced. I know how many r/t, 4 speeds were produced, but I am curious as to how many were se models too. sparky

Quote from Dodge Don in your other topic.....

There were supposedly approximately 1300 of the 1970 Charger RT 4spd 440 cars built.

Actually 1,443 70 Charger R/T 440 4-speed cars....not including export cars (Canada and rest of world)

Yep I knew it was somewhere around that number. Did they count the RT/SE cars as part of that bunch or is there an approximate number for them with a 4speed?

Yes the SE cars were part of the total. Unfortunately the Chrysler sales figures didn't break out it further. When it comes to various option combinations all we have to go on is what is registered/documented in the 70 Charger database.

Follow the bouncing ball.......

What we do know is that there were:

There were 9,370 (non export) 70 R/T Chargers made

Of those, 8,574 were 440-4bbl cars

Of the 9,370 there were 1452 70 R/T SE cars made (15.5%)

So assuming all things being equal.....8,574 440-4bbl cars at 15.5% = approximately 1,329 440-4bbl SE cars made



We also know that there 1443 70 R/T came with the 4 speed (represents 15.4% of all 70 R/Ts)

So again, assuming all things being equal....1,329 440-4bbl SE cars at 15.4% = approximately 205 440-4bbl SE 4-speed cars made


Not an exact science but rather an approximation assuming 440-4bbl cars were ordered with SE or 4-speed at the same rate as Hemi or Six Pack equipped cars.
