October tradition to post this freak. He now has a ref sheet. Took me like a year or two to finally get around to making him one LOL?? He needed time to cook in my brain. Like yknow like, rotate around in a mental microwave until ready, that kinda thing. Heres his extra info I wrote on disc and a few other things below the cut if you wanna read that or whatever since I yap too much

This guy is pretty much more than a Pixar Cars OC or a LM to me. I want to make him real. Though without the weird symbiote stuff of course! He's the reason why I want to study automechanics as a hobby. I have pretty much everything prepared and ready for when I eventually get a 74'. Websites with the service manual archived, I follow various AMC enthusiast and collector social medias, and a trade school I'm looking into as a last resort for learning. I even talk to people irl and online about it. Even some of my family who have experience w mechanics(My uncle owned a Pacer once and loved it and has a pretty positive view on AMC. Didn't speak to him for awhile and he yapped to me for an hour on the phone about mechanics and AMC's). I had the coolest convo with someone a couple days ago. Dude approached us while I was helping my dad w putting groceries in our car, he was living on borrowed time. Worked as a mechanic, told him all about this since I figured he'd understand. The most unexpected thing happened, he told me he a Gremlin with a supercharger, the 304 CID v8, and loved it and said it was a beast. He wished me luck getting my own. Bet he was no doubt, pretty surprised that someone who looks physically 16 is talking about a 50 year old car that he probably drove back in the 70's and 80's and understood what he was talking about. Funnily enough it was the same store parking lot I saw a red AMC AMX parked in once! People like that are the reason why I want to make him a reality and work on older vehicles like him, it feels right, and its on my bucket list. I have gotten nothing but support and other mechanics online willing to assist me, and sometimes the "You have strange taste, why though? That is a ugly car". But still its funny anyway, and thats the point, no? There is def something unique about these cars, they are a eyecatcher.

I bet you won’t see an #AMCGremlin cutaway anywhere else this week (thanks @brownsalvage). This car has donated much of it’s left side to somebody else’s project, but it shows off the compromises made to make the Gremlin happen. - The big news at AMC in 1967 were the Javelin and short-wheelbase AMX, but just a few months earlier #AMC styling VP Dick Teague and designer Bob Nixon had begun working on restoring AMC’s economy car focus. Ford and GM were working on new “subcompacts” and AMC had taken it’s eye off the ball. VW sales were twice what AMC’s overall sales were. A plan was underway to replace the Rambler with what would become the Hornet, but AMC needed an even smaller car to survive. - As a way of conserving cash the AMX treatment was applied to the still-cooking Hornet platform. Teague’s initial sketch for the Gremlin was done on an air sickness bag while flying on a business trip in the fall of 1966. Thus was born the short, Kamm-tailed #AMC Gremlin, previewed as the sleek AMX-GT in 1968. The AMX-GT was sporty, but the production Gremlin’s mission was economy. - It was only 3 inches (8cm) longer than a Beetle, but half a foot wider. Small and light by domestic standards - from the B-pillar forward it was a Hornet, and the Hornet’s componentry made it 700+ lbs. heavier than a Beetle. At first it came only with a pair of straight sixes from the Hornet. - The sawed-off Kamm tail wasn’t a hatch - access to the rear was through the flip-up backlight. At first, this was optional, and the cheapest Grems had no rear access at all (that lasted only 6 months). Offered with only cosmetic changes, other than the addition of the 304 V8 in 1972, for nine years, it earned a mediocre rep for “Economy,” mainly because its heft and configuration. There actually was a good amount of cargo space, but the design made it hard to use. It had lots of space in front, but as a truncated platform indicates, not much in the back. By the time of the VW Rabbit, it was wildly outclassed. - The Grem was better as a miniature muscle car - once the V8 was added, it made for a peppy car that was easy to modify. And yes, people do restore them, which is where that bodyside went. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs8gTHTASDN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lp2iwtjj1njo
