1971 road runner question

Post by Beepbeep! » Sat Nov 26, 2011 5:01 pm

Hello, I'm brand new here. I just traded for a 1971 road runner. 383 3 SPD manual ev2 matching numbers fender tag build sheet, absolutely no options. Basic road runner package, and that is it. Any idea on how many were built like that?

Thanks for that! I was more specifically wondering, if someone knew how many were built with no extra options. Just a bare bones road runner.

I will post some pics in a day or two, crappy weather here. I just got the car recently, I have the build sheet and fender tag, it has manual brakes, manual steering, bench seats, 383 motor, 3 spd manual shifter on the floor, heater, and that's about it. I am going to decode the fender tag and will post the info here for you guys to see! Are there a lot of users here?

There is no way to determine how many cars were built with specific options. I have quite a few road runners in my database with few or no options.

I thought I read somewhere that there were 427 Air Grabber GTX's? Maybe they just keep track of Hemis six pack and the more interesting options like rubber bumpers and back light louvers

Individual options, yes....these are known, but there is no way to know how many cars were built with a specific combination of options.
Individual option build numbers are on the Nest here:
