Thanks Ripster.
The last true GTO convertible was offered in 71, but someone ordered this 72 with all the same trim and features. Same 400 Ram air, Same trans, suspension, drive train, the long nose endura front clip and all the rest, even the "slap-shifter" but I dig and embrace the LEMANS and didnt go badging it as a GTO. She's a sweet ride. here's another of the interior for fun.

*sigh*
So super sweet!
My first car was a '67 LeMans I had painted Corvette Red. The vinyl was shot, so the roof was stripped, sanded, painted black.
