73385 is the serial number, not the model number. It is a Linhof Super Technika IV from about 1961 or 62. Most of these parts are no longer available from the factory, for instance, you must replace both of the spring arms on the back as the arms made in the last 40 years have a different spring and both springs must match. You can probably find the required parts from Bob at Precision Camera in Niles IL or Rim at Nippon Camera in NY City.

Bob, thanks, would be helpful if someone can confirm whether it is possible to buy internt. I live in Paraguay.
The cost of sending a team to repair is very high as well as the equipment itself.
from already thank you very much for the valuable contribution.

Ricardo,

On your first photo: you are indeed missing a screw there, that screw is there so you would not pull out the whole back, but if the screws on the other three rods are ther I would not worry, you could take out one of those screws an go to a hard ware store, see if they have a replacement.

Cannot help you on the second photo, but isn't the closing mechanism on the door, not on the top ?

On the back: try your luck on eBay, or put out a wanted add on this forum: I know from experience that a back on of a TechIII fits perfectly on a TechIV.

or the springs can be put back behind the lever ? Make some more photographs of the back, perhaps we can help,

good luck,

Cor

To clarify the back lock. Do you have the sliding lock - the part marked 'off' in red below?

Cor, thanks for the tips.

on the screws, the rest (three) are fine. is true only have to be careful with subsequent movements.

Photo lid closure, I'll take another photo for better understanding.

On the BACK, I see taking other images for better understanding and thus can help

Thanks for your tips

Ricardo, I will look through the spares this evening.

EDIT: I looked and I have not found the arm you need. I have the sliding latch, fasteners and four corner parts to hold the rotating back, but not the part you require. So sorry.
