Unleaded WAS: What's this 360 worth?
I think that you are mistaken, Bill. General Motors, for one, shipped all
their new 1975 cars with cats to comply with the 1970 Clean Air Act and I
don't imagine that AMC got special dispensation. See:

GM introduces the catalytic converter, a technology it developed in
the 1960s. All 1975 model cars sold in the U.S. and Canada are
equipped with these catalytic converters to comply with provisions of
the Federal Clean Air Act.

My 1975 Motor's auto manual gives a rather detailed description of
catalytic converters. Just for giggles, the "detune" specs for California
engines start in 1972.
This timeline puts the introduction of catalytic converters and unleaded
gas at 1975:

Re: Unleaded WAS: What's this 360 worth?
Yup, I was talking utility vehicles, and pick ups, as when I bought
my '78 Bronco, the one I looked at in Utah was made to run on regular
leaded gas, but it didn't have FM stereo, so I bought California.

Re: What's this 360 worth?
California still will not allow out of state vehicles to be
registered. A quote from the California Department of Motor Vehicles:
"What should a California resident look for when buying a new vehicle
from another state? Individuals are prohibited from importing,
purchasing, or leasing a new vehicle from another state, unless the
vehicle was manufactured for sale in California, and the Environmental
Protection Agency label certifies the vehicle has California smog
equipment. California considers a new vehicle to be any vehicle with
less than 7,500 miles on the odometer at the time of purchase." From:
