The 1972 Caprice received a facelift with a revised grille that was lower in height than the ’71 model flanked by a new bumper with increased protection one year ahead of the Federal mandate. This was done by a bumper within the bumper design. Heavy gauge beams reinforced the bumper and attached to the frame. The rear bumper also featured this design and now had the triple taillights now mounted in the bumper.
New to the Caprice lineup was this pillared four-door sedan. All models also featured a revised “Astro Ventilation” system utilizing vents in the doorjambs that replaced the troublesome 1971 version that used vents in the trunk lid and turned out to be a major source of complaints to Chevy (and other GM divisions) dealers from customers.
