Concerning AM in cars, I believe AM-only radios were available in some vehicles well into the '80's and maybe into the early '90's.

Didn't the Government mandate that all radios, that retailed over $20.00, be equipped to receive FM broadcasts, sometime in the mid-to-later '80's?
IIRC, Chrysler quit building AM only radios in 1984. Ford, a little later.
