The 1973 Bathurst 1000 was the 14th running of the Bathurst 1000 touring car race. This was the first race to be held under the new metricised distance of 1000 kilometres, rather than the 500 miles previously contested.
Allan Moffat and Ian Geoghegan won the event driving a Ford Falcon GT. 

The 1973 race was also notable as it was the first Bathurst race entered by 3x winner Dick Johnson. In the race, he and team mate Bob Forbes qualified 11th and ended up 5th at the chequered flag.
