I think they stopped right handed black plexi trc around the end of 1975
but continued the left handed ones maybe until the end of the black trim era ??

Didn't Burgs of that period have white trim? Are you sure it's the original TRC?

one never know what is original when buying used in 1983, so have no clue. i'm sure all of our detail picking was not as important then.
