I can't help you with the V24 option, but only 3.6% were painted in FC7 (Plum Crazy), production numbers show 12,886 for 1971 340 Duster.
That would give you a total of 464 Purple 340 Duster's.
How many with the hood callout?

He's saying 10% of 12,886 with V24, I believe. Somewhere in the 1,300 car range, for V24.
Factory documentation is slim for those years.

There is a breakdown for auto and manual trans cars, I don't have access to those at the moment.
Breaking it down to color, trans and option, would be a calculated guess at best, and not a definite number.

There are just too many variables.
How many with white stripes, how many with bucket seats, how many with deck lid spoiler?
The list goes on and on....
Even some manual trans numbers are not broken down to 3 speeds and 4 speeds.
Keep plugging, you will eventually find out bits of info. at a time.

Indeed it is a rare one, post pics when you get a chance.
I'm actually surprised on the low numbers in that color, 'cuz I personally think the Duster looks great in purple.
In a nutshell, it could be possible (but not likely) that all the purple Duster's had the V24 callout and a 4 speed trans., but there is no way I have found yet to get an actual number, breakdown.
Keep asking, others have there area of knowledge, that could shed more light.

I know of a real '71 340 4 spd Duster plum crazy and the V24 hood. It is pretty rusty and sitting in the weeds. 340 is long gone but still has the 4 spd. and 3.91 rear. I have been trying to buy it for a couple years now.
