Price: US $1.00
Up for grabs is my daily driver 1977 AMC Gremlin with 88k showing but may be 188k. I have a child now and have decided to focus on a more family friendly driver with AC and that accomidates a child seat better. This car sat behind a dealership in Shawnee with a bad clutch since 1983 and then I purchased it about four years ago. Since owning Ive put over 40k miles on it. Ive replaced the clutch and cable, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, calipers, brake hoses, rotors, master cylinder, new exhaust, fuel pump, carb rebuild, wheels and tires, and had the fuel tank cleaned and sender replaced. You can drive it anywhere as is or it would be great for a concours restore. There are things that I never replaced like the windshield and rear rubber glass seal. All carpet and front seats are pretty worn out. The dash is toast but I have a good one to be painted and installed. Also have two good taillights and door handles to be installed as the pass outside handle is inop right now. There is an AC compressor and condensor under the hood but there is no inside unit. Thats the way it was when I got it. The tires have lots of life left and the wheels and centercaps are from a Dart I think. There is absolutely no rust on the floorboards (check pics). There are some rust spots along the edges of the rear fenders (check pics). Small rust spots under the taillights (check pics). All rust is pictured so no surprises. Has the 2.0 liter VW/Audi engine which is kind of a rare treat. It is not the AMC 2.0 liter. It runs great when its warmed up. I dropped and lost a small linkage rod that connected the choke so now it stays open all the time. Really only affects it when cold. It has 88500 on it now but I still drive it and I will be taking it to Tulsa this weekend so it will have another 300 on it or so by auction end. Clean and clear title in my name with up to date tag. In summary, Obviously not a low mileage survivor showpiece but an honest daily driver thats great to drive or even better to restore. Prepare to spend plenty of time at gas stations listening to stories and answering questions. BEST. . CAR. . EVER. . Thanx for looking. Look at the pics and ask questions. International welcome.
