What constitutes a "California" car?

[472 R/T SE]

Does it have the vent line that's mounted on the inner fender?

N95 was required on cars sold new in California.

But, having N95 did not preclude the car from being sold elsewhere, I know of one car with it that was ordered from & delivered to Connecticut.

My car was built at Hamtramck and sold in California, and has spent it whole life here.

I think most people associate CA cars with not having much rust, not true in some cases.  They are not much different than cars sold else where.

I think cars that were by the coast had a decent amount of rot as where cars that were in the desert part of the state like Ridgecrest or Trona are pretty much like cars here where I live, good metal but roasted interiors and paint.

My car came from trona.  I had to redo all the interior but zero rust

Charles Manson territory eh? It is nice to be able to work on a car and not have bolt heads that are frozen or shrunken from rust. Sucks when  9/16 bolt head becomes not quite a 1/2 due to rust

My car was built in LA but sold new in Las Cruces, New Mexico. I am trying to put it back like it originally was, except I don't have the original tag. The engine is a 383 (it's an R/T), and the reason I asked the question was I'm almost sure the car came with the three-nipple breather, as it has the five-nipple vent manifold in the back, and the four-nipple gas tank. So I figured it was an ECS car, and thought all ECS cars were California only.

 Sounds like you girl has all the nipples of a young (1970) California ride.
