Why is there a smog pump on it?

I believe that 1966 some had emissions, I think California....


found this snipit

Santa Cruz and Monterey counties combined to form the Monterey County Unified Air Pollution Control District.

1967 The California Air Resources Board was created from the merging of the California Motor Vehicle Pollution Control Board and the Bureau of Air Sanitation and its Laboratory. The Mulford-Carrell Air Resources Act was signed into law by Governor Ronald Reagan.

Federal Air Quality Act of 1967 was enacted. It established a framework for defining "air quality control regions" based on meteorological and topographical factors of air pollution. It allowed the State of California a waiver to set and enforce its own emissions standards for new vehicles based on California's unique need for more stringent controls.


1966 Auto tailpipe emission standards for HC and CO were adopted by the California Motor Vehicle Pollution Control Board. First of their kind in the nation.

There are drawings that show the A.I.R. pump in the Assembly manual, I did a double take the first time I saw those, and then said to myself "must be California".

I personally thought it might be underpriced if it's what they claim it to be.

I have a 66 that had the California motor as well, I could see where the smog stuff was, it had been removed already though.
