Identifying a '73:
1973 and 1974 Toronados appear very similar, and differ only in details. The 1973 had a reflector strip between the backup lamps, which was replaced by a silver strip for 1974. 1974 models also had TORONADO spelled out in block letters stretched out to the full width of the grille, while 1973 models had a more compact emblem above the grille on the driver's side.
