Last day of being a Gremlin owner

[ecurbpope@xxxx]

Dear fellow Gremies,

I hope I'm not counting my chickens before they hatch but a guy is on his way 
from Erie PA to Chicago to buy my 1970 Gremlin. 

I have been sitting in the garage with it since I got back from church this 
morning. I have owned it for almost thirtyfour years. I can't begin to tell you 
the memories in that car.

I just wanted to say good by to the Gremlin Group. I will sign off for sure 
later tonite. I appreciated running into you folks on the internet about three 
years ago. Until then , I thought I was the Alamo for Gremlins. I didn't know 
anyone else that owned one. Your conversations have taught me much about a car 
I have had a really great time in. 

I bought the car two months after they came out in April of 1970. I was 18 
and got drafted for Nam straight out of highschool. I'm going on 52 in October 
so I can say the car has been a part of my life. I have owned two other 1971's 
but I always hung on to my original 1970.

I'm selling it to a guy who has four other Gremlins but didn't have a Two 
Passenger like mine. There were only 850 made in 1970 and you'lle be hard pressed 
to find one. 
I'm giving the buyer every stitch of Gremlin stuff I own. I'm only keeping 
one small keepsake. 

God bless all of you and your tanks always be full.
