Body Styles: ( compare years )

Hardtop Sport Coupe The GTO became an option on the Pontiac LeMans again. The GTO wasn't changed too much for 1972. Most notable changes included; recessed front grilles, minor front parking light changes, functional fender vents behind the front wheels, and exhuast splitters that exit out the sides just behind the rear wheels. The 1972 GTO could be ordered in two different body styles - the hardtop and the very rare sport coupe. The factory did not build any convertible GTOs in 1972. The 1972 GTO's set of standard options included; bucket seats, special exterior trim (hood, front bumper, and front fenders), 250hp 400ci engine (optional 455ci engines), dual exhausts with side splitters, and 3-speed manual transmission with Hurst floor mounted shifter.

Says Larry Parks (deuceguy.@city-net.com) - "I have not had a car in 15 years and would like to get back into the game. I can't tell you how many cars used to just follow me home. However I've been out of this for a long time and times have changed."
