Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Gremlin- animal



If you really wanted to go you might get in touch with them. You might be surprised they might have an AMC division already or if a bunch are going they might start one. Then again they might ask you what the hell is an AMC. You won't know to you ask. If you were really into winning trophies around here you would have to be enter as a Mopar or something. That is the main reason you seldom see me at shows that have an entry fee. While I know mine is no jewel still if I am laying out $20 I do want a chance at something. Most of them have prizes for Fords, Mustangs, Vetts etc but never AMC. The only way you can win anything is to win best of show. I don't really blame them. The most AMC cars I have ever seen at a show around here is 6 and I can name each one of them. They are the same 6 AMC cars I have been seeing for the last 10 years. I do know one thing in the last 10 years our cars have gotten a lot more respect. I remember 10 years ago when I started taking Gremie to shows every once in a while I would pull up to the entrance of a show and get ask where was my show car or was told the spectator lot was on the other side. Each time that happen though there was some one a little higher on the evolutionary ladder that said it was a Gremlin let him in. Never get told that anymore. More times than not now I get thanked for bringing  the Gremmie to the show. Anyway I say give them a call. If they will let you in go for it if they don't hell with them. The main thing is have fun and enjoy our cars.

Guess we'll have to try an AMC invasion at the all Mopar show here in Minnesota.

They didn't argue. I know Phil keeps trying to get me to take mine to out of state Mopar shows. He says that he gets calls from them asking him to get AMC's to come. I have mixed feelings. I think my Gremlin is an AMC not a Mopar but legally they own the rights and rather we like it or not we are a part of their history.

Well I went to the show tonight. Every one welcome me. One of the guys who was putting it on even called his wife to tell her she had to come to see the Gremlin. Made me feel real good. For the most part the show was like I thought except there were more cars than I thought. The Cougar club was putting it on and both Mustang Clubs were there. The southern Indiana club has white flags on their antennas while the Louisville one has blue flags. The Mustangs and Cougars accounted for about 50% or better of the cars that were there. I won a nice T-Shirt for a door prize. They had three trophies. One for Ford, One for GM and one for Mopar.  I told my buddy that left me out unless more than one or two AMC's show up at these things I will never win anything. We were shooting the bull and the guy's wife said they are wanting you up at the sign in tent. I shut up for a minute and they were yelling for the guy who owned the Gremlin. Since Gremmie got a lot of attention I thought maybe they were going to give me some leftover door prize or something. I got there and they guy said it is our understanding that Mopar bought AMC out. I said you are right. They said we would like to give you the best of Mopar trophy if that is alright with you. I said sure it it is. GREMMIE WON A TROPHY.  I have waited 10 years. I always thought it would be neat to have one so when these other guys set them out in front of their cars I could too. Don't get me wrong I think Ia Coca. however you spell his named screwed AMC when he bought them out but of it takes being thrown in with Mopar to get a little respect so be it. So a car show I had doubts about going to turn out to be one the best I ever been too.  Gremmie won a trophy. Can you tell I am happy.
