Because your car is a 73 it might still have 1302 (three bolt) struts, or it might have newer 1303 (two bolt) ones. The way to check is to look at where the strut joins up to the rest of the suspension, err balljoint, whetever at the bottom where wheel is.
If it has three bolts in a triangle pattern it is 1302, if two bolts, one higher than the other it is 1303. The 1302 is also longer in shape than a 1303.

Sorry if you already knew this. By the way I don't have any🙂

I recently wrecked two l'bugs and have the front ends aside. The cars were in good nick and the one I drove felt good in the front end. The bits are under my feet and need to go. Going cheap. Cheers Andrew Old Toongabbie.
