Agreed, maybe some cars were bought early '79 and registered as such..still...compliance plate would still say '78

I too thought production ceased in 1978......

some cars would have been complianced in 1979 and
as such would possibly have had 1979 on their
compliance plate, even though we all know that they
stopped making them in 1978, whether it is 79 or 78 it
doesn't make a difference the car would have been the
same :roll:
