What spare came in a 1972 Trans Am?If you have Rallys or Honeycomb rims was the spare the same? Could you have the dealer install a space saver? If yes, what color was the rim and inflator? Also need to confirm paint color of jack stand and jack?

Dennis, thanks for the info, I think I'll be safe and load in a full size spare. I have a couple backups for the judges. I have a complete set that is suppose to be orginal T/A, late 1970 to late 1971. It has a gray base, gray jack mechanism and the bottle is red. I also have another set that has an aluminum rim space saver, with a blue bottle. The base on that one is light blue and the jack mechanism is is black. I guess they'll be up for sale.

Forgot about the rest ...
The base will be a light blue. The "poll" part of the jack is gold cad plating. I have seen the ratcheting mechanism in light gray or light blue. The inflator bottle for the spacesaver is normally blue. 1971 Trans Am 455 HO - Cameo white 1973 Trans Am 455 - Buccaneer red 1984 Trans Am 305 - Royal blue

Check the sticker on the decklid. It will show either a full size or space saver tire. If the sticker is gone you may be able to find out by the build sheet.
My '71 T/A came with a fullsize Polyglass GT F60 on a JW code Rally II rim. I'd say your '72 T/A probably came with a fullsize spare too. 1971 Trans Am 455 HO - Cameo white 1973 Trans Am 455 - Buccaneer red 1984 Trans Am 305 - Royal blue
