[Jeep2012]

They say there were two used in Bullitt.

That was already covered in post #14 of this thread.

Kinda…. He said there was a surviving Bullitt charger which is untrue. 2 cars triple black from factory and destroyed on set.

Well, perhaps the jury is out on that. There are claims of one of the cars still existing. And it was originally yellow. The driver, Bill Hickman, states that despite claims of two there were actually three Chargers used in the film.

I would imagine theres way more now than were ever produced originally.

The trans in my Chally is from a 440 triple black ‘69

Unless every car is known there is no way to answer this question with any real accuracy

 

[RemCharger]

Known surviving cars often represent 10% of production . So if there were 8 easy ones that popped up here, that's 80. Now given there's 17,*** produced....it's probably a 1000 if you split up the available colors. Let's be generous and say 500 had different color interiors.
So I'll say 500.

Here's one, better have deep pockets

I have asked the question in forums. I was told five. I asked Galin at a car show he said that he knows six. I have been doing research and found seven. I have vin tags for six. Only one I cannot find is the burnt Hemi 3x black Charger. I found the owner and he said he would get me pics but he has not. Crazy part no two are the same.

I have asked the same question and someone directed me to your post. I was trying to find out how many 1968 Black Hemi Chargers were produced. Without vinyl top/stripe delete in my case. Do you still think there were only 7 in black made total?

I'm going to do something a lot of people are unwilling or incapable of doing. Being honest.

There is absolutely no way to know the answer to your question as:

1) The underlying factory data does not exist
2) You can't combine or delete options to come up with a new number. That level of detail was never tracked by the factory.
3) The presumption that all existing examples of a car are 'known' on which to base any answer is incorrect.
4) You cannot make up math and twist logic to come up with a valid number

Voodoo math equations (this times this times this = ) is only guessing at an answer. There is no basis in fact by doing this.

People want finite answers when none exist.

There is no way to know. Make up your own number. A guess of seven is as valid of any answer anyone else can come up with but it's only a guess.

 

[sawdoff]

I'm guessing these numbers do not apply to your car. Thread is on triple black cars.

Judging by the wiper motor, it's an early car. Just for curiosity, what's the build date?

How many 68 Charger R/T's in triple black made?​

Not enough!!

Not true,the Blue Charger R/T was destroyed,the Yellow close up/camera Charger R/T survived and was found in Arizona and restored. Both cars were repainted black for the film.

This was the black 68 Hemi Charger R/T automatic car from Texas owned by a gentleman named Allen from Texas,that I mentioned in your thread.

I know a guy in Ohio who ordered his new from same dealership my car was from Pottmeyer Auto Sales Marietta Ohio. He sent me dealer bumper decals and key fob that are from that car and there on mine now. He told he would order a new car every year and told them to put decals in car not install them. But he kept the Charger instead of trading it in since his favorite.
What a nice guy.
