Is this really true? I had no idea that the majority of '72 TA's were Blue.

My brothers '72 is a White on Blue, 4 speed, with AC.

Unlike pmdclassics, I haven't seen that many Lucerne Blue TA's let alone 72's.
I think that they are so rare that they were collected/restored more than the white ones. Probably drove less also.

I've owned a number of 72 T/As and looked at many more. I would estimate the white cars account for about 2/3 of the production. I own one 4-spd now, and it's white. I've owned two other 4-spds in the past, one blue one and one white one.

I see a numbers matching 71 Lucy blue T/A went pretty cheap on Ebay this morning, I think for about $23k. It looked very nice and had the parchment interior. Does anyone know anything about that one?

In my immediate area there are 2 blue 72 T/A's and 2 cameo 71 T/A's. Last spring I spoke with a guy from one of the southern states and he had 3 Lucy blue T/A's and decided to paint one white. I also purchased what I thought was a white 72 T/A a few years back sight unseen. When I checked over the car it was code 26! Not only that the non matching numbers 455 was suppose to be fresh and it would not run, the oil looked like MUD. Needless to say this particular Classic auto dealer got the car back.
