Default Truck Question - production #'s

I know this isn't exactly the right board to ask this question, but I'm hoping one of you is either a closet truck enthusiast ( )or might know someone who is who might be able to help me.

Does anyone know where I can find out the production numbers for 1973 to 1982 Chevrolet Pickup trucks with Dual fuel tanks or the percentages of overall production of trucks with Dual tanks.

(I've checked w/ SEMA with no luck)

Theresa, you should call GM and ask for someone in the recall department as their was a massive recall on the trucks with dual tanks after the staged 20/20 segment. That should get you in the ballpark.

Go here:http://www-tech.mit.edu/V113/N3/gm.03w.html

It sez "Of the 8 million trucks built between 73 and 1987 with this option, approximately 4.7 million were still on the road as of 1993. If you figure losing between 6-8% per year for what ever reason and you'd get close. Of course, these trucks are getting "Hot" again and folks are buying and restoring them.

Hope this is of some help.
