Correct World Champion badges 1973/4 Europa special

(1/3) > >>

Just about to order new "World Champion..." side badging and noticed I have the 5 year badges on my '73/74. Should I not have the 6 year badges as the car was built 6/73?   

BDA:
You actually should have the 5 year badge (1963, 1965, 1968, 1970, and 1972). Lotus won the championship in 1973 but that was after your car was built.

 I am not sure they are that controlled with the lotus manta of using all stock up first.  In beaulieu there is a JPS no 52 special with the 4 year badge. I don’t know the build date but it’s a 72/73 registration.

 After I posted I thought, why not just look up the 1973 F1 championship.  Crowned in October that year, but... could have been wishful thinking, LOL! Thanks

Bainford:
My car was also built 6/73, and it has the five year badges.
