There was 1.3 base,L 71 only (optional bench seat also on 4dr saloon) manual only.

1.6 base,L (optional bench seat 71 only also on 4dr saloon) all years.

1.6 L decor facelift (74 only).

1.6/2.0 XL all years

2000E facelift only (74 onwards).

 

No factory GT or GXL versions ( note that all E's the trim plate says GXL). These are build dates not registration dates.

Ford LeMans green (was avl on pre-facelift mk3's) was sapphire blue originally. Has all GT bits (seats are MK3 Granada leather all round heated fronts great for my back) been my daily for nearly 20 years shared over last 5ish with falcon Ute.

Covered in tree sap etc at moment.

I have a 2000L 1973 saloon and it was my intention as part of it's restoration to rig up the similar Granada seats you mention in the same way also to yours, now the car does require a fair restoration and is not on any to do list of mine any time soon. I do like the base models.
