They both have Huret dropouts.

The 1973 Grand Jubile bikes had a cheap stamped steel fork crown plus some other frame differences. Some had Campy dropouts. In 1974 they switched to Wagner crowns with a chevron V on top.

Also in 1974 Reynolds changed decals and added a small gold block at the bottom with the Reynolds address inside.

When Moto switched from Huret Jubilee derailleurs to Suntour Cyclone derailleurs about the end of 1975 they also changed to Suntour dropouts.
