Therefore I must assume that if one ordered the bucket seat interior trim code that the car received the entire "Sport" package.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it, LOL!

Lloyd, sounds like the most plausible explanation so far! Another thing that backs your theory is that no where on the 72 Order form is the 654 Custom Trim option, only in the accessory catalog. The 734 Sport option wasn't on either form or catalog. I guess I'm wondering if I'm sitting in front of my salesperson in 1972 and say "I want black bucket seats on my D37 LeMans ", he circles 761 for black buckets, what triggers that option code 734 LeMans Sport/W70 be added? And additionally, if I sat down and ordered a D37 LeMans and wanted the 334 Gto option and then said "I want black bucket seats" he would also circle 761 and apparently that would automatically trigger the 654 "Custom trim" (same price as the 734 sport option). I'm just curious who/how those different options got added to the order going to the factory? Guess we may never know.
