Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: New Member



Al,
 Welcome! Definitly a nice show piece that has the go to go with it! I really like the removable front end. I love the 70-72 gremlin. I too have a black 72 grem. Mine is a slow street car though. I am in the process of redoing the body at the moment. I have it mostly stripped down to bare metal right now. Unfortunatly a previous accident was revield while sanding the left rear quarter so I am on the hunt for one now.
 I also have a drag only 70 gremlin that I just bought. It has a stock 343 auto out of an amx. I am upgrading the fuel system, and the cooling system, and adding a roll bar, and a real dash in place of the aluminum one.
 While I don't personally agree with the choice of engine.....I am glad to see a gremlin preserved. Who's to say it couldn't go back to its roots one day? The WIBG Gremlin turns low 8.19's and it has the heartbeat of amc.
 Me, unless I win power ball tonight I will be lucky if I see the 11's
 Once again welcome aboard!

This past winter I removed all the graphics, touched up the paint in
the spots it needed, then sanded the entire body with 1500 paper and
rebuffed it. I got a silver gremlin X stripe kit and returned it to
more of a subtle look.....remember I AM old.........lol
