1972 GTO Poverty Caps #488630
I met 74 SD455 Formula yesterday at the Indian Uprising in St. Charles, IL yesterday. I learned that I have the incorrect Caps on my car. I thought I did my homework on this and was tough to hear but none the less I appreciate his honesty and listening to why I thought I had the correct ones. Looks like I will be looking for a very nice set soon if anyone has any or leads to any.
Thanks, Jody Traylor

Do you know what the correct ones look like as I have a set of the ones that were for a 73 car that has the offset arrow head in the center of a cap that looks like baby moons. If these are correct for you I have what you need & they are great.

I appreciate your help. I can not lie, I was not real happy...LOL......but at the same time I know that I do not know everything so I started trying to research it again at the show. I emailed Lloyd today and from afar it is hard to tell as I was talking to him when I was doing the car about going to poverty caps and he did not notice either but with some better close up pictures he agreed with you that I did not have the right ones. It was nice to meet you and glad I was able to see your HO and the Formula SD. Cool stuff. Jody

Pat, Biggest difference is around the center of the cap, later ones are tapered '72 caps aren't they have more of a step? Pretty hard to tell without them being side-by-side!

I told Jody what after the show car looked great! He said the caps were wrong. I said who cares...

I know I am probably getting a little anal.....now that I know it stays at the front of my mind to make right. I will wait for the right set to come along.
Thanks, Jody
