New models always came out late in the yr so yes the 74 models would have been available late 73 sometime.

Try Roy Dale for parts. He did say he had a heap of XL parts for those models at one point. https://japbikespares.com.au/

Frame plate says it's a 5/73 build date.  :)
I think I have found the donor bike needed for the rebuild.
