My dad ordered a 72 Lemans Sport when i was a kid.It was Adriatic Blue,black bucket seats,console,guages with clock,tinted glass,Formula steering wheel,400 -4bbl,no ac.It came with dark blue wheels,dog dishes,and blackwalls.I remember waxing those splitters every time he would clean the car. They were the absolutely coolest pipes ever.None of my friends could believe it came that way. In 73 he put a set of Rocket wheels on it.It was bad a$$.I wanted that car so bad but he sold it in 74 to buy a 74 Lemans Sport.I was heart broken. I had a chance to buy the car in the early 80,s,as the elderly man that bought it let his grandson drive it,and he swiped the side of the highway concrete divider. At the time i did not do bodywork,and took my body man with me to look at it,and he said it was too bad. Now years later,doing my own body work,i could have fixed that car easily.What a shame.So,i have always had a soft spot for those 72 LeMans,s.But they gotta have those side splitters!
