    Wow

    The car looks fantastic Lloyd!

    I have never seen that color before on any 1972 GM intermediate, neat :TU:

    Thanks again, Glen.

    The color is rather unique. I'm generally not one to harp on the "one of one" deal as far as rarity because of a certain color combination, but I would nearly lay money on this car being the only Shadow Gold WW5 GTO built.

    IIRC, the only other '72 Pontiacs I've seen in this color were a Grand Prix and a Luxury LeMans.

    It would be interesting to know what the other GM divisions called this color - it looks MUCH more like a silver-gray than a gold. The color code is "55".

    Just for fun, here's a shot of the instrument cluster.

    Day late & a dollar short

    ready for the next group purchase, if and when it comes :Do No:

    Need four more . . .

    Hey Glen:

    I'm ready for four more G60x15 Polyglas GT's.

    And . . . here's why.

    Another '72 GTO! 455HO, M22, A/C, P/S, PDB, Y99 suspension w/ G60's, gauges w/ in-dash clock, underhood lamp, trunk lamp, footwell courtesy lamps, heated rear glass defrost, etc. Color is Sundance Orange, with Dark Saddle buckets.

    First owner added the hood tach (quite useless IMO) and the Judge spoiler. Both were offered as "dealer installed" options on a '72. I bought the car from the second owner, who had owned the car since 1987.

    It's originally a Rally II car, and I already have a set of the correct small-center 15" Rally II wheels, just need four G60's to mount on 'em. Any idea when you might be able to put together another GP?

    TIA.
