'72 was sort of a unique year for the GTO.

(1) It was the last year of the '70-'72 body style, which all had similar rear tail lights. Was also the last year before the drastic, & unpopular, body style change in '73.

(2) The Judge option had been dropped. And the GTO was just an option on a Lemans.

(3) The '72 T-41 front cap was a little different than the '71. The grills were a bit different & there were fender vents, behind the wheel well openings.

(4) It was the last year of the round port 455HO engine.

The most well known '72 GTO drag car is probably the Sonny Ray SS car. Sonny set records & won nat events with it. And David Rampy won his 1st nat event with it, at the '83 Cajun Nats. But, this thread is for GTO Stockers.

I've already posted a pic of an Axemaker '72 GTO. But, I've read there were 2 of 'em. This pic I have shows a solid brown color. I suppose it could be the same car. Not sure.

Gary Wood ran one. I think he & his wife Charlene both drove it.

Todd Hoven ran one for a while. Won a nat event & won class at Indy. I think Troy Vogel has it now.

There were probably quite a few '72 Lemans Stockers, thru the years. Since they can run the same engines as a '72 GTO, I'll include them, here. The one I'm most familiar with belonged to Larry Maxwell. It's now driven by Stephanie Pike.
