Just wanted to send a shot of my "new" 1972. Just bought it and am starting a street resto. It's a driver, #'s are right, Steel Cities Gray, Black Leather Deluxe Interior, base 350, 4-spd, AC, PS, PB, Stereo. Runs great and gets about 20 mpg @ 70 mph with a 3.36 rear end.
Working on my Corvettes helps me with technical writing for Mid Aemrica Motorwork's catalogs and websites.

That is a great looking '72 you have there. Last of the chrome bumpers and a very good color choice. There were a lot of Steel Cities Gray out of the plant (2,346) but you just don't see very many on the road or at shows. That would be my choice of color for that year.
Enjoy The Ride

Welcome to the site Steve, your wealth of knowledge will come in handy round here, not that there isn't enough already 
I'm never short on questions when working on my 78 Pacer.

We don't know everything, but we may have experienced a similar situation and be able to save someone some "knuckle-skin" !!!
Have a Great Weekend !!!
