... is stamped on top of driver’s frame rail near engine. From what I could find, last 6 are vin, z is plant, second 2 should mean 1972 but the first 2 should be model but 2 is not listed anywhere. Am I reading this right?

Frame is long, 5 lug and leaf spring rear.

Striking error. Can't erase. Guy hit 2 twice.

Of course '72 was the year GM added an extra letter to the full VIN, so maybe he got carried away. IDK.
