sd455hota,
Never even thought about the fact that base Birds, Esprits, and Formulas all were available in Adriatic Blue and that it wouldn't take a special valance for a T/A painted that color.
On the trim rings, all factory literature states that they were standard on Trans Ams in '72, but I suppose the owner could have told the dealer not to install them prior to delivery. The trim rings and center caps were usually shipped in the trunk and then installed by the dealer. I've seen pictures of an original low mileage '73 SD Trans Am without trim rings on untouched Rally II's and I assumed that's what that owner did.
