Well Buxtonguy,

Don't feel like the lone stranger.  Never heard of them either.  Went digging on the web, found there home but no joy.  Apparently, the '73 on Armslist is a singleton.  I couldn't find any information on it, nor who manufactured it nor when.  Very good possibility it's an expensive paper weight.
