I've had a pair of those one year only 72 bulbs for years sitting in a cabinet gathering dust.

Thought PowerBeams started in 70? Maybe I'm reading the chart wrong.

I agree with BCreekDave and Steve.

I have posted to this site before - I believe I have one original head light (from at least one assembly plant) in my April built 1970 Nova. It's a 7 inch POWER BEAM with a GM designation at the bottom as shown in my attached pictures. Notice the chart shows the POWER BEAM with the GUIDE designation. I have several of the GUIDE script head lights which were obviously also used. However, since I only have one (IMO factory original) 7 inch head light with the GM script I have been searching for it’s match for many years.
