Chevrolet did not retain any records on combinations of options. This means it is impossible to know how many of any particular series and body style came with any combination of options such as how many El Caminos were built with a 4-speed and/or a specific optional engine or how many El Caminos came with a radio.

* Figures based on Len Williamson's Tailfins & Bowtie publication.
** The L35 engine was also available in non-SS396 optioned Chevelles
as a special '
police package ' that also required power disc brakes. It's believed
323 non-SS396 optioned Chevelles were built. This figure is arrived
at by subtracting the number of RPO Z25 (SS 396 Equipment) options sold
from the total of the three 396 engine options.
RPO L35 = 59,786
RPO L34 = 17,358
RPO L78 = 9,486
================
Total = 86,630
RPO Z25 = 86,307
================
323 396 engines sold not accounted for via RPO Z25
