Gary is correct, it was '73 and '74 only for the Varsity. However Sunset Orange also returned for '77 only on the Sportabout, which was essentially a cheaper version of the Varsity.
Just curious how you determined that is a '73? I ask because some of the components (e.g. stem, derailleur) look like they are from '74, but it's hard to tell without closer pics. It certainly looks to be barely ridden!
Metacortex I am curious if Continentals were also made in orange in both 1973 and 1974. I thought when I bought my orange Continental that they were only built orange colored in 1973. I think I got that from the Lightweight Data Book. Roger

You are right, unlike the Varsity the Continental was available in Sunset Orange for '73 only. For '74 Chestnut replaced Sunset Orange on the Continental.
