Missing front plate, plenty of visible rust - I think it's nearing the end :p

No. And not a 1973, as listed either. It's a 1971 in orangemetallic with cobbled 1972+ headlights (just four screws and a plug, but the frame does not fit. Except "made for J"-frame between November 1971 and July 1972).
And yes, it looks not mint condition-ish.

...it is a rusty beauty...!!! I prefer it to a brand new S.U.V. of any make.
Yes, Ingo, the colour looked to me a bit to bright to ne Hellas but in 1973 there weren't other golden hues for the K70. I didn't notice the fact it a was a '71.

Oh, there were some. Despite the 1971 and 1972 "goldmetallic" -idiotically the same name, but a slightly different colour-code- also the 1973 "mayametallic".

When you look for a K 70, try to catch one in Italy. Sometimes you find one, and then always for a good price (because unknown and without a local fan-scene) and always in a better condition than in Middle Europe.
