Trouble finding a 1972 Headlamp Mount??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hi all,

Need some help locating 2 1972 headlamp mounts. LMC, ECC and Brothers only have them for earlier years, but not for 1972. Any ideas? It is part #7 in the attached picture.

Thanks,

-Fred

The only thing I have seen change from year to year is the hole in the back of the bucket. Some had a round hole & some had a square hole. Also the placement of the 3 screw tabs for the retaining ring sometimes varied. If you buy the earlier bucket & retaining ring I'm sure it will work.

If they were how would you be able to adjust the headlight?

The earlier head lamp bucket/mount does not fit the 69 to 72 models, hence the question about availibility for a 1972. Anyone?

Thank You
