I don't think there is an actual breakdown of colors but I could be wrong. The numbers you have seem correct from my recollection. Beautiful car by the way.

Maybe the best color in 1971...

The lettering in the hood decal should be white....not red.

 

[Tayseer alhamad]

Yes you are correct I have not installed it yet, this was before the rebuild

71 Duster hood decal - red or white lettering?

 

[- Marvin -]

Yes you are correct I have not installed it yet, this was before the rebuild

I thought so, but I wanted to 'warn' You before installing the new one...

I've learned this fact some years ago.
I think, there are a lot more 'red-ones' actually outside nowadays.

 

[Tayseer alhamad]

Yes
I’m aware of that , and thanks for the note
Although the red color look good with the flat hood color I think
But not original

I love the car . Lose the steering wheel. I am sure there is someone out there with a tri-5 Chevy is looking for one. The car deserves a mopar wheel.

You read my mind on the choice. I like it

I don’t know where they would have kept record of how many V24 cars were made in this color but if anyone would know it is @V24x2. Jim keeps the registry of our V24 dusters. Numbers matching 4 speed that car holds some serious value. One just went across Mecum last week not as nice as your car for nearly $75,000 USD.

Out of factory Your Duster should have had this steering wheel (without pentastar in center):

In my opinion Your Duster is the 'best' optioned 1971 Duster 340 I've ever seen.

...but I have always preferred colors like B2 or A4 over high-impact colors.

Buying used, hard to find cars you Have no option to choose colors

I think all of these V24 cars are unique and the ones that are left are one of one or one of a few to still remain. My car is FJ6 with a black vinyl top with white stripes….tri color odd ball. It also has the floor mounted cassette with the microphone that was only available on an A body in 71. Pretty neat car.
