My dad had a dark green with white top 72 custom 10 lwb when it was new like this, (no slot mags, though). It was a 307 auto, PS PB, no AC, I still remember that hot vinyl seat and camper shell! He used it as a daily driver but traded it around 1977 for a 74 or 75 black with red interior Silverado with a 454 when he got a nice bass boat. It was a cool truck but he still missed his 72 (and the fuel sipping 307). He said that the 307 was one of the best all around engines he ever had.
