Hello, I have a 72 gremlin with the V8 and I have found that it was originally painted BIG BAD BLUE. As this color was not an option for 72 I'd like to find out more of why this may have been painted this color. The doors were not on the car and the dash was gone when I got the car so I have no records/tags to work with here. But I did check with the paint chips and it does match a 1970 BBB. It also seems to have had several options .... power disk brakes for example. No roof rack or roof wing thou. I have put a new floor in and it is now 100% steel. Will start repainting this spring BIG BAD GREEN but I'm working with only the uni-body at this point no glass or anything. I want it done right. I've had 7 of these cars so I can put them back together in my sleep. My first car was a Gremlin that I drove for 9 years and 200,000 miles. -- Matt Woodstrup Windy City Rambler/AMC Editor mwoodstrup@xxxx
