Donald,

Well then that answers my question regarding the dare of introduction. Anyone ever seen or have a SR rear der. dated 73 or 74? I'm sure they exist if Donald is correct. 1975 is the earliest I've ever seen (although I don't look around much). Curious if anyone has an earlier one in hand, can't be too many survivers at this point, no?
