As a student of Constitutional Law and Pulblic Administration i am very interested in the process of Federal Regulation ...particularly as it relates to the auto industry.
Many car ppl never give much thought to how the car has changed over the years and what might have been the main influence for the change and improvment.
The Federal Mandates have great power to affect the changes that we see in our old cars and may not always realize WHY the change occoured.
why did side marker lights appear in the 68 model year.
why did headrests and shoulder belts become standard after 69 but earlier models often didnt have them
why was the Vin number re-located to the dash from the door jamb in 68
why did front drum brakes disappear after 76.
why did re-cap tires disappear
ALL FEDERAL REGULATION
while i was nosing around government documents i was directed to this interesting site.
