As the 1970s progressed, Buick and Pontiac would rename its X-body model lines (shifting nameplates from the A-body intermediates). For 1974, Pontiac downsized the GTO to the X-body (for its final model year before 2004). For 1975, Buick reintroduced the Skylark to replace the two-door and hatchback Apollo, replacing the Apollo entirely for 1976.
The aluminum V8 was replaced by conventional cast-iron block V8s of 300 cubic inches for the Buick Special/Skylark and 330 inches for the Oldsmobile F-85/Cutlass, while Pontiac carried over its 326 cubic-inch V8 to the '64 Tempest/LeMans line while switching the base engine from the four-cylinder to a 215 cubic-inch inline six-cylinder.
