Dennis,

I asked this question of John Sawruk (RIP) a few years back. He checked with his sources and the answer was no, none were ever sold to the public with the "K" cam. I may even have that email someplace...

I can also remember reading somewhere that none of the '73's ever got out with the "K" cam but I don't think I could put my hands on it. Anyone else have any info?
