I think it was in '73 that Volvo added the door impact bars (and a roll bar?). I think the fuel tank also moved forward, and the simplest factory change would have been to add more brackets... And in '73 the cars were factory prepared for aircon, whatever that might mean. But it's still amazing that a 2L performs similar to a 3L with identical pistons and what not!
