I suspect this is CS41T2C291915. The build sheet photo is fuzzy but it looks right. Compare the engine bay photos from the 2016 Barrett-Jackson auction and the recent ad.

I don't know what the first two words mean, but the turquoise color-shift seems to be just that: a color shift due to the photographer's camera settings or the post-processing. To wit, note the color of the valve covers in the new ad -- turquoise, which is incorrect for 1972 -- and the pie tin decal, which looks red instead of orange. The seats also looks turquoise in the Swedish pics, a color choice that was not available in 1972.

As an aside, the paint is GB7 (not B5) -- below is the tag saved from the 2017 eBay auction (this beautiful NYB went through several pairs of hands before heading to Sweden).

PS: Having looked some more, there is no doubt in my mind that this is CS41T2C291915 -- here is a view of the engine bay when she was sold on eBay (FCBO thread here), this time in NH rather than CT. Note the silly "TNT" pie tin:

"Endast 831 mil" means "only 8310" in plain English... the Swedes have an odd way of booking their mileage. They count them by tens. "Mil" does not mean miles, but denotes the "tens" instead. So a car which has "10 000 mil" on it's odometer is a hundred thousand km or mile car, depending on which kind of odometer it has. - Nice New Yorker. Too bad it's a Sedan.
