[AMC-list] AMC's with catalytic converters

[Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jeff, maybe you are thinking 1974? According to the 75 TSM:
"Catalytic converters are used on all California cars, Nationwide cars equipped with V-8 engines, and Nationwide 10-80 Series [Matador/Ambassador] cars equipped with six-cylinder engines and manual transmissions. Remaining Nationwide cars do not require a converter."

I thought 75 WAS the first year for the converters on AMCs.
