I had a similar incident with Vicroads and Vic police trying to tell me my car needs pollution gear. Police officer canaried me. They didn't know what they were on about as my car is a 5th or 6th month 74 XB. Pollution didn't start until Jul 1975! I had to fight with them. I got sent to "FORD" to clear up the debate. The service manager @ Ford laughed and said it's all legal take it back. I also provided pivtures from factory (original) XB GT's 74 and 75 models to assist with pollution gear varification.
48hours later and all sorted. I've kept all the paperwork in the car. So the next brain dead, know it all police officer, that tries the same trick will be proven wrong on the spot and **** off and leave me alone. Nothing worse than being pulled over just because you own a modified car.
My car went through a r/w and the pits @ Dandenong, Vicroads 3mths earlier to this predicament. So it was 100% legal ppollution wise.
