TC,
I didn't mean for you to tear apart your car.
Looks like you've got a future transaction with Clyde for a new cowl seal.
The early 1972 model year production sequence might also explain the use of the 1971 body code of 14177 instead of the 1972 body code of 1HV77.
Someone didn't get the 'memo' until after the '72 models began production. I wonder where that transition/migration begins.
