Pro-touring Gremlin?

[firewood]

Anybody build one yet? Saw this diecast one, and LOL'd.



I'd bet there's a few other oddities out there...

I'd love to see a PT'd Vega, Pinto, and Checker cab (I'n crazy like that)

I have been saying for awhile now that a Gremlin would make a great PT car. They handle great. They won a couple chamionships in IMSA RS series.

[firewood]

Bump. ANYBODY? Do I have to be the one?

[JEFFTATE]

I've never seen one in person.
You should build one !!!
It'll haul butt.
They're light !!

[ProdigyCustoms]

Do it, I think one could be very cool.

I was doing an AMC Spirit about 5 years ago, right after Poison Dart. It had a 3 link, with C4 corvette front suspension and a 6 inch engine setback. A real AMC engine that made 635hp on the dyno. The plug got pulled, never got finished. A shame.

Almost had to drive one of those in high school, thank god i talked my dad out of it. Saved my money and picked up a mustang..it was baby blue...nice

[cheapthrillz]

Would be cool I think....

That rendering looks sweet but how would you get the roof/quarter window looking like that? Chop it some?????

Jeff, do you have any photos of this car?

Thanks,

I think it's more an optical illusion with the white stripe by the windows. The smoother curve of the rear side glass will be the tricky bit.

I'd like to see them, too. Even incomplete.

I've admired her car for years. I had a pacer in high school, and will build one again.
The 4.0 Jeep motor is definitely FTW!

She ain't bad herself.

Why, as a matter of fact, I am!!!!

I'm a new member, but I've visited this forum before for information. I found this thread in a google search

1975 AMC Gremlin X Levi Edition

Fairly clean body with a few dings and a small amount of rust; is now currently dismantled. The progress on my project is very slow because I'm in college right now. But Pro Touring is the goal....



Small block and 700R4 mock up





LH Motor mount, RH mount to come in the future....
(Using Alston small block mounts)




Other parts in the works: Ford 9" rear end, complete rewire, custom dashboard (the original one was cracked so badly, and any others from donor cars will most likely be the same way), Vintage Air.... you know, pro touring!

There was a gremlin at SEMA it was on air ride, the doors were suicide
I didn't get any pics

[thedude327]

Ok then,

Here's a clue.............
