That rear bumper is found on Roundies from about mid '71 to late '73.  Called the long style, compared to the shorter sides found on the earlier Roundies and Euro cars. 

 

I agree with Koupe, those look like 13" MiniLites to me.

I think those are known as the 2.5 mile per hour bumpers late 72-73 as they moved to those good looking 1974 5 mile per hour impack bumpers

That bumper is also mounted with "short" brackets that came on the '71 and '72's.  '73 uses the same bumper but is mounted about 2" out from the sheet metal in the back.

Yep, April 1971-ish through July-ish 1973 on U.S. models.  Only the mounting brackets distinguish the U.S. 1973 rear bumpers from the "late 1971" and the 1972 rear bumpers.  The German nomenclature would label ALL of these cars as "Modell 71".

This is a minor point, but those wheels look bigger than 13"

I love the trim on that car. Love it. 

 

Love all the trim on that car. And it's careful placement....
