Greetings, fellow listers!

The handbrake boot on a 76 is completely different that a 73 or 74 (at least
the ones I've seen)  My 74 has no armrest and a rubber boot.  None of the
documentation I've seen shows a stock armrest in a 74.  Perhaps from the
after market.  IMHO.

I'll second that. I think that's what my '76 has on it. Standard fitting.
You can see it best on this photo:

Mine has one like that as well.  I think it was a factory thing. IMO
