Beautiful car. Enjoy driving it.
So where did you find this amazing looking car? We love car stories.....almost as much as we love pics...
(just FYI) The W29 was an appearance and handling package. But you've got a mix of W29 hood and W30 side striping. The W30 would have had the OAI hood, cutout bumpers and dual exhausts. 72's never had the rear deck spoiler, but I like it. Looks like an A/C car.
Just info - I love the look of the car. IMO it looks just fine with SSIIIs on it too.
Put some pics into your site album so we can see the details of your new beauty, please??? Or- post them here.....

Thanks All,
Well i found the car in wisconson.
the original color is flame orange which code 65 which i would change back.
i beleive it had a white int also because it has a white headliner is there a way to tell by the data plate A52 maybe or b80?
It was a 350 4 speed with a bench seat by the looks of the tunnel and the letter and i ran the vin in the decoder.
The previous ownwer took the rally pack out and also the ss1 and i had to buy back the sport wheel he took off too!

947=white interior, and as you know with A52 means a bench seat. 65 = flame orange paint, A=white vinyl top (one source that I have calls out for double letters for the top colors, AA for example), B80=exterior drip scalp mouldings. I cannot make out the build date on the left, it looks like 99B? 9B would be 9 for September, and B would be the second week of the month. I would assume that it is O9B, which is correct for the above definition for the build date.

Especially with that white headliner.
It looks to me like it is 99b

Then the motor is an 396021 casting with f block "e" heads
