Lower body first on the tag, then upper. The same number twice is a solid car. Three dashes mean a colour ordered outside the chart, so the tag does not name it.
We do not hold an interior table for 1972. Ours run 1974 to 1981. We have how the TR field works and not the table of numbers, so we do not print a colour.
You found the colour. The car is the rest of it.
Buildbook keeps parts, receipts, photographs, hours and who did the work, as one Build Book that stays with the car. Free to keep, and it takes a minute to start.
Read the whole tag
Paint is one field of six. Paste the tag and the decoder reads the style, the body plant, the body number, the interior, the paint and the build date, or says plainly that it does not hold the table.
