There's a reason for certain details in regard to car fetishism and LA
culture. There's a difference between a '69 Camaro Z28 and a '72. Body
styling is one. Catalytic converter is another. A '71 Mustang is a
different animal from a '66. Call it a Shelby Cobra, Mach 1,  or a
Boss 302 and it's something else again. Technically, all Ford
Mustangs.

Dodge Dart Slant 6 or 340V8? Is it the '63 with the pushbutton automatic?
