The new 1967 model year american cars came out in September of 1966 and the Cobra was available October 1966. When it was delivered they said it was being registered as a 1966 because there would be no California legal 1967 model year 427 Cobras. This is because California had just put into effect a smog and safety law that was picked up at the federal level in 1968. The only concession to smog and safety is a PVC valve. The 428 engine has low hydrocarbon emissions but higher than desirable oxides of Nitrogen because at that time smog was "smoke and fog", they did not understand about oxides of Nitrogen Order Form.gif. 1.3 Meg file
