anyone know how many 1971 Twisters were produced?

I have a 1971 twister duster. Ga4 gray with black stripes. Twisters are identified by a51 on the fender tag. Twisters were made in '72 as well. I heard some were made in 1973 as well. 1971 twisters were the only twisters made with the sharktooth grille. The raylles that you got didn't come with trim rings.

Two engines were available. The /6 and 318. A bit of the 318 cars were 3 speed manual. Heard that a few slipped out with the 340.
Another cool feature was many of them had the salt and pepper seat inserts.

There are no known production numbers for twisters. In the 15 years that I have owned mine, I have seen 3 of them.
