The cat became standard on all Midgets sometime late in '77. Prior to that
'75-'77 could come either with or without a cat depending on whether it was
a California or federal car. I found this info in the VB catalog. The
curios thing is this note at the bottom of the page:
Catalytic Converter is legal for road use in 49 states and Canada.
Replacement converter is not legal for sale or use in California.
