Hi All,
I've read a few posts here that talk about my car being possibly one of only two ever made. I just want to see if someone can tell me where they're getting those numbers. I've heard everything from 2 to 10. I also was wondering if someone would be willing to help me out with the numbers I pulled off it. Thanks in advance, and hope everyone is doing well.

Hi,
I remember seeing this car for sale a while back.....I'm not sure of production numbers but definitely one of Mopars best body styles. I think its a neat and unique automobile you have there. Definitely get some pics up to share.

Sweet! Thanks for the link! I didn't know the history of the engine.

Ha, I'm knocking this out. Gotta love the Internet. And I'm not crazy talking to myself here ... I just figured this could help someone else along the way.

PT225 R 2238000

PT = Trenton, MI Plant

225 = cu. inch

R = Some say regular gas, another says Ontario plant?

2238 = based on 10,000-day Chrysler Julian calendar (Wednesday, September 13, 1967)
http://maxwedge.com/articles/10k.php

000 = I'm actually missing a number, but this is the number engine block built that day (mine is some number under 10 ... I'll have to look again someday to get that last digit!)
