Thanks to all on the list!
For the past almost year when I first got back into a gremlin this list has
been most helpful and enjoyable.
>From all of you I learned what I was doing wrong with my brakes, what people
are doing to restore and keep things going, notorious door hinges and what
to do to fix them... a whole lot of great stuff from people passionate about
AMCs. Here I thought for the longest time I was alone in a "vast sea of big
three" but that is not the case!
Thanks!!
Due to all of you I am now going to try to see just how far I can take my
'72 258 gremlin x into the world of efficiency. I know that were this a more
rare car this would be silly, I should keep it original. But this is...
MINE!
What I plan on doing is adding "anachronistic" parts, they are for AMC, just
not (necessarily) 1972. Like 4.0 heads, fuel injection, headers and a T5
overdrive.
My question is - Any Ideas what else I could be looking at to make the
"super-E" gremlin? Right now it runs great; I average about 20 mpg on the
drive to and from work, mixed speeds, this is a basic car, no auto/air/power
anything. perhaps I am being silly, cost <> benefit.
Thanks!
