I wonder why the center of the universe isn't posting lately??? Hope he's OK.
I think he was scolded by a mod for turning posts like this into discussions about his cars. Probably be best not to try to bait him. BTW, this is one of the most interesting cars I've ever heard talked about here on Moparts. I hope to get to see it sometime here in the Chicago area! My best wishes toward its restoration! I'll go back to lurking now......

What's on your passenger side dash insert? 72 GTX's also got the GTX badge there.

I did not know that. I parted out a largely unmolested but very rusty 72 RR/GTX that had the GTX insert. I guess someone could've changed it early on though.

That's interesting since my 72 RR/GTX also has the GTX emblem on the dash insert. I always thought someone had changed it at some point in the past but maybe the plant used up the dash emblems that were left?

Could have been an early VS late thing. When was your car built? From what I've seen on original cars they mostly came with the road runner on the dash...but I don't know 72s as well as 71s
Sorry, I don't know the build date off hand and the car is in storage.
Mike.

I looked in all 3 of my 72 parts books today and none of them show a GTX nameplate for the dash.

that book could of been already printed before they even thought of making your car. like alot of things in manufacturing, i would suspect it would be a supply and demand type thing more then anything else.
