Ford to label 1978 models as 1977 cars
Ford Motor Co plans to start building 1978 models this week and label them as 1977 cars to avoid looming emissions rules. The tactic could aid buyers who purchase late 1977 cars by avoiding $200 to $300 price hikes while potentially lowering future trade in value. The EPA deems the move legal and says the cars need not meet tougher 1978 antipollution standards. Congress delayed the standards but faces a final compromise likely by August.
