Picture from sales brochure

The model -73 looks the same. The windscreen is no longer flat. There is a new "modern" dashboard. The taillights gets much bigger.
The defroster is very bad on the -73 model but from -74 this is corrected.
In -75 the front indicators was moved to the bumper with modifed brackets (not on the US-model). Rack and pinion steering was introduced. The rear window was slightly enlarged and the chrome trim was made redundant.
The arrow points to the strenghtening sills that are fitted on the body (not the chassis).
