1975 Model Year Cars - Must run on Regular with a cat.

I searched "1975" to see if anyone has a thread just for cars in 1975, none showed up so I'll start one. I only want cars from 1975 and ones that run on Regular Unleaded fuel with a catalytic converter installed.

Here's one I made:

I'm not exactly happy with it although that's more because I don't like inline 4s than anything else, I mean for this car to compete with the Corvette and to beat it on both the track and strip purely due to it's lightness. This particular variant is the most powerful making the same 165 horsepower as the base Corvette of the same year, there will be lesser versions running lower boast with better efficiency although I'm not sure if I'll be showing them.

Does anyone know why my engine's reliability is so low BTW?

I'm guessing it's to do with the boast as in previous builds you'd get a warning if you run more than 10 PSI with carbs, but that warning isn't showing anymore so it could be something else. If for some reason you do want to see the other variants once they're made, let me know and it will increase the chances of me showing them.

By typing in the maroon or whatever colour they are boxes on the top, the leftmost one is the platform name and next to it is the model name. The other two on the right side are the same thing but for the engine and it should be noted how you have to select a few things before you try naming a car or engine or it will just erase what you typed as soon as you select something.

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for that (though I don't know which forum this would fit in better, lol).

That said... I'll throw a design together in the next day or two (I like community challenges, when I notice them!) Gets my creativity flowing. :)

The 1975 Kard Razor Eco Sport

I've finally built my car for this thread! Being a performance based company, KMW couldn't accept anything mediocre! This car is pushing 231 HP, with a 0-62 time of only 6.5 second, and a top speed of nearly 150 MPH! On top of that, it gets nearly 20 MPG! This car is proof that for the right price, true sports cars could exist even in a time of high gas prices and crippling emissions regulations.
