Early style choke knobs and throttle knobs are rounded, later ones are "square" headed.

Smaller brake booster on the early girl.

Are you sure it's a smaller brake booster? I thought the master cylinder was oriented differently (front and rear) lines were switched. Didn't think they were smaller.

The windscreen wiper arms have smaller  size rivets and the rivets are on the bottom of the arms not the tops (or visa versa). Also the rear view mirror arm is different too.

I'm pretty sure mate; the brake booster I have on build #418 is different to the car I bought off you (HS30 102895). When I was doing the brake upgrade, I recall checking to see if the booster from the 73 would fit and from memory, it didn't. Going back quite a while so I can't remember exactly but they are definitely different sizes that I have... could be that someone put a smaller booster on the series 1 I have, not sure? Hanging to start the restoration on HS30 102895, not far off now!
