Oh, I almost forgot: and they will soar in value enabling you to sell yours at Barrett-Jackson & Goldstein in 40 years for at least $4 million.

OK, I'm making the carhop part up.

Thats Funny!! Good One!!!

I couldn't kill that Gremlin - my work car for about 6 years, straight 6 with a 22 gallon gas tank mostly red with a white hood and driver door not much worked right (a Gremlin thing living up to it's name)... People got the heck out of my way when saw me coming and for good reason - it was that ugly, but it was FREE from my DAD and in a way It was a fun car...Randy Anderson

Hey Hey Hey...... I brought a brand new Gremlin off the show room floor back in 1974. It was a Green Gremlin X striaght 6 with auto. I try to buy the Black one with a V-8 and 3 speed but they wanted to take it to the Auto show in town that was 2 weeks away and I needed a car.

On some pics it shows up better than others--but if you look at the Bold Moves episode on the Shelby GT it is obvous on the prototype.

www.fordboldmoves.com it is episode 9

The Gremlin's trasmission went at about 170,000 miles, back in those days cars were throw aways and this one was free, so I said bye-bye.... I miss that clunker and it's 22 gallon forget about me gas tank - with the broken gas gauge ( thus the name )... Randy
