For Sale: 1974 AMC Gremlin in Grand Rapids, Michigan

1974 AMC Gremlin - Beautiful Survivor - Orignial 232ci I6 - 3 Speed Manual Transmission - Original A/C Car - 91k Miles - Repainted Sierra Orange Exterior - Black Interior Pop culture has made Gremlin a fun moniker, especially when it comes to the AMC economy cars. The AMC was a bit of an odd looking car, and came complete with a funny little character which seemed to help take away negative connotations of a Gremlin. It's an odd name for a car that AMC advertised as a solution to inflation, economical, and a car that AMC believed would help relieve the fuel shortage, or at least the amount of fuel Gremlin owners would use compared to other makes and models. The vehicle you see here is a 1974 AMC Gremlin finished in Sierra Orange over a black interior, with a 232ci Inline 6 under the hood. The car currently shows approximately 91,292 miles on the mechanical odometer. Despite having a funny name, this Gremlin was well cared for, and clearly a special car to someone. The car is highly original, other than a complete repaint in the original color of Sierra Orange. The paint is glossy and in very nice condition as it envelops the Gremlin's interesting shape. A black graphic which runs along the side of the car and swoops up the c-pillar of the car gives a little contrast to all the orange. Chrome trim throughout is in very nice condition, showing a little age and wear on the roof rack and door handles. Painted steel wheels with beauty rings and hubcaps are wrapped in white letter BFGoodrich tires. The interior is an exercise in simplicity with a simple steering wheel, a simple radio, a few knobs, and a bench front seat that at first glance looks as though it would be two bucket seats. You'll notice that there is a little discoloration on the side trim in a few small spots, and that the driver's side seat back has a seat cover on it. The dashboard, door panels, and carpeting are in very nice condition, and with a close look at the dashboard you can see the optional air conditioning unit that is trimmed with faux wood panels. Pretty fancy for a mid-'70's economy car! Under the hood is a 232ci Inline-6 engine that is mated to a 3-speed manual transmission. The engine bay is tidy, with the main focus when peering under the hood being the blue painted engine. The underside of the car shows dirt and surface corrosion as you would expect from a very well cared for and highly original '74 Gremlin. We hope that such an iconic well cared for car like this Gremlin will bring smiles to the faces of anyone that comes in contact with it. A negative connotation of Gremlin is not what this car represents. Please call if interested or e-mail with specific questions. Thanks for looking.
