Title: 1972 R Code Sportroof
Post by: Corey Bowcutt on August 03, 2020, 05:55:09 PM: A buddy of mine contacted me about a 72 R code Mustang Sportroof for sale relatively cheap. I really know nothing about this year of Mustang so having a hard time establishing what it is worth. I started trying to decipher the VIN plate. I was able to decipher everything except the trim code. Trim code is listed as AW. In all the stuff I find on the internet I do not see this code. The W is clearly white but does anyone know what the A means?

Standard interior with white vinyl with black appointments

As a side note - In other styles of interior white doesn't equal "A" in 72

No, there was an August 3rd, 1972 built R code on epay last year, 2F05R2289xx. Sold cheap but was incomplete and needed a lot of work.

When you say "sold cheap" do you recall how much?
