Default 1971 455 HO Lemans Sport convertible

Does anyone know how many '71 455 HO Lemans Sport convertibles were produced with the 4 speed transmission?

Thanks

I had one with the 400/4 speed and IT was rare! Mine was factory Starlight Black...even more rare. Ron

Only 17 total 71 HO Lemans Sport ragtops were built so I would imagine a 4 speed to be one of nine? Talk about rare!

From Dan Jensen's '71-'72 455HO A-body list, out of a total of 17 '71 455HO LeMans Sport 'verts, 11 were M/T equipped.

Unfortunately, it's not broken down into the M13 (3-speed) or M22 (4-speed) cars.

That's one RARE beast!

Pics, please!

And we are to guess that he's a recluse who does not want anyone to know he has such a car in order to keep the information top secret and if a picture was to be taken it wouldn't develop since this car and its owner take on the characteristics of Dracula who cannot be photographed??? lol

Let's pony-up the info and pictures!
