cheers,Mike
Not much difference really:-
72 car has bigger seats, different grille, 2.0 litre engine, fuel injection, bigger exhaust, three silencers, horrible dashboard, even more horrid steering wheel, disc brakes all round, sometimes dangerous wheels, rear wing vents, heated rear window, horrible gearknob, dipping interior mirror, not so good gearbox, different colours, and a few hundred small differences.
Not much different really.
