How many 69 RR convertible 4 speeds left?

I'm not sure about 70 verts, but the 69 numbers for verts are:
2128 total verts built
2118 had 383's
10 had Hemi's (6 were 4-speeds and 4 were automatics)

Of the 2118 that were 383's, about 40% were 4-speeds, and 60% automatics.
I often see different production number totals for 69RR verts. I think this is because many people look at the total production for the US only, not the overall total.
I often seen the 69 vert total in the high 1800's, but I think people are not counting the ones that were exported. The agreed upon overall total seems undisputed at 2128 for 1969.
 
2128 was the number I was always told,some of the older source books (Mighty Mopars for example) list only 69 model year for convertible production,but now it is well know that 70 had a convertible too. When I bought mine in 85 I was wary because I had never seen a Road Runner convertible before only GTX's. I took the vin number to our local C-P dealership (Par-K motors) and had the parts manager decode it.
 
The number I always use to hear for 69 4 speeds was 701,that number seems to be inaccurate. Numbers are nice,but they are a selling point in my opinion,so I never worried that much about them. I have owned my car 29 years now,I plan on giving to my son.

1111 "383 automatics" + 769 "383 four-speeds" = 1880 total 383 cars
+ 10 Hemi cars = 1890 total verts for 69???

I find that the total production numbers are 2128. Where are the remaining 238 RR verts? Must be the verts that were exported to Canada, Australia, etc.?

Dad sold his green convert 4 speed to buy the red auto Alex. I am the only 4 speed around except my old b5 car in Royal Oak.
 
Im currently restoring a 383 4 speed convertible. Close to being finished, im just trying to figure out if the cylinders for the top can be bled. I flushed the old fluid out and replaced with dextron type A atf, but the right side lags when its on the way up for the first 5 or 6 inches than it catches up. The left side is as strong as can be and im afraid of bending the top haha
 
I purchased a blue '69 back in '83 for $300. It was sitting on an abandoned farm in NE Nebraska. The owner saw my '69 sitting in my driveway and stopped to offer it to me. Buy friends and I drove an hour to take a look. The top had not been latched and the drivers door window was half open. It had a white bucket interior, 383 4-speed, 8-track player and because of the rusted trunk and floor pans, it was parked on my parents farm for over a decade hoping to someday have enough gash to restore it. I then moved to LA and then Texas. I sold it to a buddy/classmate for $1800 with the caveat that I would have first dibs if he ever sold it. I finally had a chance to see it a year ago. It had a rotisserie restoration with a canary yellow paint job and every part is sitting in boxes on the floor around it until he gets the time to reassemble it.
