Nope, not rare. JH29G0 - 1970 Challenger SE with 318 CID - 3,737 sold with the automatic trans.
T/Ake care,

Well.....it is a lot more rare than a normal 318 hardtop....
Rare does not always mean valuble though. Over $4,000,000 for a 71 Hemicuda convertible and yet a 4bbl 383 1970 JH23N0 Challenger is not worth much at all even though they are just as rare (only 6 made).

The reason the 383 4bbl is so rare in the hardtop is that it was an optional extra (extra cost) on the JH but came as standard with the R/T.
Why that is not the case with the convertible I am not sure. Something to do with the convertible base price maybe??

Just goes to show.
The only SE's I have ever seen were also usually R/T's. I wondered if it being a it was more unusual (rare was maybe the wrong choice of word).
I think it came from an old (1991) Unique Cars magazine.

The R/T SE was more rare. Less than 4,000 in total. All engines and transmissions. Including overseas, Canadian etc.
