Off the top of my head,some of the 72 #'s are just transposed from 71....AND... 4112 stick 78 Trans ams for 78 is NOT the gospel....according to John Witzke
Agree 100% IIRC some of the early 1st editions were misprinted and had duplicate yr coverage of some yrs, at same time other yrs info was missing...publisher offered free exchange replacement. Wouldn't be good if someone paid $650+ for one of of those!

Exactly. IIRC The original intention was to have a pocket reference guide for use "in the field" to verify OEM equipment, etc. when it was originally published in the '90s there was no such thing as portable "tablets" smartphones, etc.
