Re: [Chrysler300] 300G California emissions package

["Langendorfer" <langendorfer@xxxx>]

Folks:

I did a science project on exhaust pollution and emissions control in
automobiles in Junior High (remember when it was called that?) on Long
Island in 8th or 9th grade, circa 1964. I sent letters and received personal
feedback from Chrysler, Ford, and GM (very nice personally typed and signed
responses to a kid, BTW - not sure that would happen now). If I recall
correctly, the National PCV requirement was in 1963 and California predated
it by 2 years, i.e. 1961 (or an option for non-CA cars as noted here).

This doesn't help with defining the configuration for a G, but perhaps the
timeline (as well as some Club Member trivia!).
