Tim, According to the WPC November, 1983 newsletter, there was:
46,978 2 door sedan Savoy's made in 1959 (combined production of 6 and 8 cylinders)
13,816 2 door sedan Belvedere's made in 1959 (combined production of 6 and 8 cylinders)

of course no Fury's or Sport Fury's came in the 2 door sedan configuration, Just 2 door HT

Not from the publication that I have. It had stated that it was a combination of 6 cylinders and 8 Cylinders. The original Data from Chrysler that the author had derived the info from may not have had it split out that way. Hard to say if that info exists or not.
