Re: 71 or 72?
Yes, the pictures he showed in post #10, accompanied by info on matching numbers after his inspection, do show it is in fact a '72. My original post asking about the mirror mounting was #5 and yours, only focusing on the VIN-plate, was post #8. I didn't intend to offend you, just keeping the info straight to better help Tug87 (and others) learn. No comment on the 'intact' rivets vs replaced
I also want to say that '71 and '72 both had the same two reds available, 513-Flame Red and 514 Red. I felt awkward enough posting #13 already and getting into color in this case wasn't the priority for determining year. It's all good. He worked it out.
Sorry if I offended anyone. Just trying to help keep the facts straight for better future reference
