I have updated the 73a page, The casting variations have all been included but I have not attempted to add the trim variations because the 73a is a pretty scarce model in general so there are very few refuellers for me to examine, Thanks to all of those that sent me casting info.

After reading this post I checked out my 73a. It looks like a code 11, but it looks like it never had any silver trim. Here are some pictures.

Nick,
From looking at the picture of the real one, maybe the factory figured it was going to be too much trouble to mold those tiny lights on top of the front bumper.
