Was it possible to order a rallye hood on a JH23G car in 71?

My 71 Challenger JH23G1B105597 that I have had for approx 44 years now was all original when I purchased it off the original owner back in the 70's, it had a Sport hood (Rallye/R/T style) all the upper SE style door/fender/hood belt mlds as well, plus other oddball options for a 318 car....it underwent a 1971 T/A transformational "cloning" in late 79 and has been that way to this day..... fender tag/window sticker and any other docs were tossed decades ago.....

the "rallye hood" was NEVER an orderable OPTION on the Challenger 1970-'74 -
it was STANDARD on R/T, RALLYE, 340 & 360 equipped cars

there are 340 cars wit flat hoods (factory mistake or some other snafu?)

I don't know if this adds anything but I wanted a flat hood on the 71 Challenger I ordered new with a 340. No option other than the rallye hood.

I actually ordered it with a T/A hood but that got canceled along with (if I remember correctly) elastomeric bumpers and manual six way seats.
