It became option in about 73 across other versions, so many GLS may well have had them. I like the idea of this being a Sunbeam Sceptre - colour seems early 70s dark green like my Dad's 1971 (TDU 562J) and if Sunbeam-badged it would not - logically - have the C-pillar logo of a Sceptre with an H - eg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v327/Linda32/My%20cars/S7301660.jpg . Also the pillar vents here are pre-1972 without chrome highlights.
