Certainly in 1971 the 1600A could come with dual carbs, as well as with
automatic transmission.  It has rubber mats, no waist trim, painted
vent-wings and other economies.   I think the single carbed version was
always identified by an M-number, M3.  The M-code indicates that pre-66 Type
34s could be single carbed.

Do I recall the even more basic version with swing axle and 1500 engine was
just called the "1600"?
