    It's supposed to be but that is why I posted the part number. It came with a 72 GS I bought a few years ago, it was in with some spare parts. I know for sure it's not a 70 bezel.

    John is right it's a 71. I should have researched it before posting. I'm glad I included a picture.

    Ive been learning plenty about these 72 bezels :)

    There are 2 kinds of bezels for 72 ....1st design and 2nd design (later)
    And they both share the same part #

    the 2nd designs have a 3/8 inch outer lip on the top and side edge .
    the 1st designs are just flat ....but looking at them straight on they look alike

    I have a NOS 72 LH for $200 shipped but since I have never owned a 72 I cannot tell you whether it is an early or late style.

    the 72's are year specific ...

    there are 2 types with same part #...1st design (early) and the 2nd later design

    they both fit .


    the 2nd design have an edge/lip that surrounds the bezel and on
    the backside have some more pot metal bridged from one bucket
    to the other ..they are heavier and stronger than the 1 st design but
    supposedly you cannot tell the difference when hood is closed

    Jim ....mailman came ....thanks much

    its the later types ...which are the better ones


    now I have both sides ..1 is the 1st design the other is 2nd design :grin:


    they will work but I think when the hood is open its noticeable :Do No:


    so now I need a RH side NOS 2nd style/later version


    anybody ???
