Gas rationing in the 80s? I think you're off a decade. I lived in SoCal in the 80s and there was no rationing. During the Oil embargo in 73 there was the odd/even rationing, but that didn't continue into the 80s.

California (and several other states) also implemented even/odd rationing in response to the 1979 oil crisis.
