I have heard both, 72 doors on early 73 cars and early 73 doors without the door bars.
It certainly could be both. The earliest 73's had 72 doors with the early cable type window regulators. And then the next group of 73's got later doors with scissor type window regulators but no impact bar in them. And then the next group of 73's got late doors with the imapact bars. My 73 has late doors with impact bars. Jim |

And then the next group of 73's got late doors with the imapact bars. ^ This is as I have understood it. My car is 00193, and is in the first group mentioned above. So far as I have been able to tell, it came with: -1972 doors with cable window regulators/rollers/rubber -1972 Targa top -1972 engine lid and rain tray -1972 headlight switch -Silver dot gauges -Aluminum doorsill thresholds + door seal hold-downs -Bright metal windshield washer nozzle covers I think that's everything 1972 that I've found so far, but I feel like I am forgetting something. The only thing that was distinctly 1973 was the side-shift transmission—probably the best "one 1973 thing" if you only get one. |
