They built a total of 1226 1971 Challenger hard top and convertibles combined with a 340.
The white book did not break down numbers between the vert and hardtop?
894 automatics
291 4 sp
41 3sp

Seems like most of the convertibles in 71 were 340s... thanks

Oh OK I see now

Whitey · Oct 1, 2019

No way to tell I guess ... i’d have to estimate it being fairly low

Another way to look at this; Challenger color selections for 1971.
If your exterior color is gold Y8 (what it appears to be in the pic) about 5% of total production was that color. You could "guestimate" about 4.9 % of total production had that color. 4.9% of 1226 is about 60 cars came in that color.
Calculate 4.9 with your specific drive train.
What also makes your car rare is the AC in a convertible and the power windows which will reduce the number made with that combination
