I believe that approximately 100 of the 260 street "427"s were actually 428's. Most of the production from CSX 3201 to CSX 3300 were 428 powered as well as a few of the early 3300 series. According to the latest Shelby registry, less than 24 of those cars retain their original 428 engines, perhaps as few as 12 of them, since the registry doesn't have data to answer the question one way or the other on 12 of those cars.

Only a few of those 100 cars are "missing in action".
