I don't understand why no one takes the time to show the date code and stamps on BAT. It would be interesting to see the date stamp on the Japanese KPH speedo and the date stamp on the steering wheel. So easy to do but everyone just pontificates on what may be the truth.

BAT buyers:
1 - are obsessed with low mileage and tend to "believe"
2 - trust speedometers even without evidence (date stamps, etc.)
3 - pontificate without using available sources (MFI Carrera book, etc.)
ok did as you said. "The initial 3-spoke sport wheel was used for 1974 and half of the 1975 model year, and featured a hub-centric design and thick-grip wheel", "Starting January 22, 1975, to comply with new regulations for the German and Australian markets the 380 mm three-spoke sport wheel changed to a new offset design." Being that the car in question is serial number 347 its very safe to say it was produced before this cutoff. Did I read any of that incorrectly?
