Re: Gremlin door panel, other trim - X, Levi's, GT options; same, different?



According to my 73 Data Book Levi fabric was available on only the Gremlin in 1973. Hornets has the Gucci option and Javelins has the Pierre Cardin option.

The car is a 73, based on the front bucket seat with the plastic latch in the upper top center of the seat back, same as 73 javelin or any of the thin back bucket seats. In 74 and up, the latch was a T handle at the outer edge of the base that rotated a latch on the cushion. Less prone to problems and latch breakage than the 73. I can not be sure, but it seems that bucket seats earlier than 73 had the hard turtle back shell thick seats, and they had a smaller latch release on the side of the seat that looked like a ball with a little lever.
The 313W trim code is for 73 40 series, blue fabric and vinyl bucket seat trim. did not indicate specifically it was Levi. 73465 means it is a 73 vehicle, 40 series is gremlin/spirit, the 6 is 2 dr sedan, and the 5 means gremlin, base model. Future years, 4 =4 cyld, 7=custom.
Paint code A1 GX : A1 is snow white. GX must mean Gremlin X stripe. Usually the stripes were blue on levis cars, but they could have been others as well. What color stripe did this one have? Also, the deluxe door panel with the chrome trim was to frame out the levi fabric on the door panels. Non levi's seats just had all vinyl door panels. If I recall, Levis was available on Hornet hatchback, Javelins, and later on pacers, and cherokees. Hope this helps.
