One thing I always wondered was if the 1972 Mercury Comet LDO came with the "Sport Lights" (or Grabber lights) that the 1972 Ford Maverick LDO came with. According to what I can see in this auction, they did not: http://www.ebay.com/itm/321476345398?forcerRptr=true&item=321476345398&viewitem=
I had a 72 LDO Comet that had the amber lenses that were turn signals, not sport lamps. It was all original from what I know.
3J - Bright Blue Poly Yes....interesting combination. I think the blue/silver LDO interior would have been a better choice.
