Here is a link to an ad for the 71 GSS. Sorry for the entire ad being posted, the picture wouldn't clip for me.

72 6 Pack Chargers definately qualify for Factory Freaks.

So far I want every car shown in this thread.

I just joined this board, and have been going through all the old posts. I guess it's the Other Muscle section I need to hang out in. Great article on the 72 Charger 440 Six Pack. I nearly fell over when I saw this article a couple months ago. You never know what's out there. For years people said my 71 Bee 440 Six Pack 4-speed was a freak (back in the 70's), but they did make several (30 4-speeds to be exact). But back in the 70's, production numbers were hard to come by, and we never saw another one like mine until the late 1980's.

The 72 in the article above is a TRUE factory freak!

Not sure why a Six Pack Bee would be considered a freak.

Now, a 440 Magnum Bee? THAT's a FREAK!

Why would the 440 Magnum be any more or less of a freak than the 6-pack? 26 440 Magnums were built and 30 6 Pack 4spd Bee's were built. I would say thats apples to apples.

Because it's a 1972. Official production of the Six Pack/Six Barrel engines ended in 71. But Chrysler initially advertised the motor as available in the 72 model year but then killed it prior to official release, though several early pilot, preproduction cars made it out of the gates and into private hands.

I think he was referring to a 71 Bee, Steve.

Wouldn't the difference be that the Six Pack was &quot;officially&quot; available, the four barrel engine was not?
