My 1973 may be a unicorn..

I have a 1973 xr7 351 cj Q code 4 speed with factory air… Have you guys ever seen one?





There used to be one for sale here in NH back in 2011 that was a Q code 4 speed XR7 w/ air and sunroof. I don’t know where it ended up.

Here is the thread from MC.net when it was posted for sale.

Don’t know, but it has to be in a small club at a minimum. Try phoning Kevin Marti to see if he can figure the answer out.

It certainly was ordered so someone could swim upstream against the tide!

I like the color change with those wheels. Very sharp looking.

I am sure that it is one of one with ‘Air Conditioning - Manual’ :laughing:
Designated “Retail”, so that means it was special ordered by the buyer.

Look what I got in the mail today… I’m so happy :stuck_out_tongue:

You should have Kevin provide a new report that tells how many of the 260 351-4V Q code cars came with a/C. My guess is 130.

Very cool! Mine is 1 of 1 because of bumper guards. I get a big kick out off that.

Whatever the rarity status, it’s a wonderful car and equipped with the right stuff for '73

The Q-codes are potent as-delivered and there’s WAY more upside potential to be had.

Congrats on a great car!

On BAT this AM, there is a red 73 XR7 4 speed vert with air for sale. Pretty cool combo!

Please send the link…

Here it is:

Thanks… Pretty cool but it’s a lot of body that has been done. I would have to see it in person.

Great looking car for sure ! Nice to see another phat cat out there prowling around and with a Q code :smoke:
