I understand your doubtfullness, but, since he was
talking about Le Barons as opposed to Crowns, as to
the low production numbers of the Le Baron
So if only 19 of the 2194 LeBarons came with dual air
in 1967, that would be only ~0.866%. Considering that
95.1% of all '67 Imperials had air conditioning
(statistic found in the Standard Catalog of Chrysler,
which is also not infallable), less than 1% of
LeBarons having dual air is a really wild statistic.
Also considering that as "top of the line" cars, the
LeBarons usually had MORE options than Crowns, I would
expect the percentage of LeBarons with dual air to be
higher.
So, I'm sure the writer researched the facts to
print.
Well . . . ever notice how often magazines and
newspapers have to print retractions about supposedly
well-researched "facts" their writers have printed?
;o)
All the above is, of course, speculation on my part.
I'd just like to see something from the factory that
documents this statistic. I've seen/heard WAY too
many wild "facts" quoted about these cars over the
years that were total fabrications--so it's tough to
swallow this one without questioning it.
