By the book, the only model range of '73 cars that extends into the "1700" range are the RoW coupes (fitted with carburetors) where the 5th digit is a "5".

I'm curious about the fifth digit in 91133017XX, is it really a 3 or perhaps a 5. I think it really should be a 5. It is not unknown for the factory to mis-stamp the numbers. Photos would help me a lot. If you want to do it privately, then PM me for my email address.
This seems to be the most likely answer. Wow, if it is a true mis-stamping, what a find. Now the question will be, does it qualify as an S chassis or a mis-stamped T chassis? Would there be anyway to find out, like the production number under the knee pad? What about the brakes, are they S brakes?

This could get interesting.
