I so, so wanted one of these as a kid. My dad had idiotic Volkswagens, and I wanted a Gremlin. Looks like the original owner, btw.
Somewhere in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina, August 1973. That's my cousin in his 1971 AMC Gremlin X. We made the trip from Chicago to Atlanta to the Smokies, to Nashville and back in a week. The car was fun and had a three speed manual on the floor. Fun times! Minolta SRT-102, Kodak Ektachrome slide.

Factory 304 V8, Chrysler 904 trans, Hedman headers, flowmaster exhaust, Edelbrock manifild & carb. Sounds great, runs fast!
A rather neglected looking AMC Gremlin in an industrial area. The car its self looked quite solid and rust free so might be saved still.
1974 Amc Gremlin, this little jewel is a genuine little old lady car, last driven in the mid 80's. Original 82 thousand miles with factory air and yes, the bumper sticker you see does say "librarians are novel lovers. Location not disclosed at owners request.

The AMC Gremlin is a subcompact car that was made by the American Motors Corporation (AMC) for nine model years. Compared to the Gremlin's competition, AMC reduced development and manufacturing costs by adapting the compact Hornet platform with a new and distinctive abbreviated tail, producing what was described at its introduction as the first domestic-built American subcompact car
The car was introduced on April Fools' Day 1970, six months ahead of subcompacts from Ford and GM. It was created to compete with imported cars from Japan and Germany; and although its appearance received some criticism, the Gremlin had an important advantage with its low price.

This month's LUGNuts challenge is all about cars with an official LEGO Theme. I went with a Blacktron Gremlin. Because Blacktron.
A while ago I had the pleasure of working with Leanne McGuire who was doing a gremlin themed shoot for her collage.
It was great to work with her and her friends.

The boys' mom had to work yesterday and my oldest had spent the night at a friend's, so it was just my youngest son and I. It was raining a lot, so we spent most of this Saturday at the house. During a break in the heaviest showers, we did go for a walk in the Arboretum, a couple blocks away, tucked into the shady valley, below.
On the edge of the Arboretum, we spotted this 1969 Chevrolet pick-up truck that's always parked here. My dad used to have a truck similar to this one, except his was a GMC. It was the classic sea foam green. He'd take us "weed surfing" in the big, meadowy field behind our house. That's where he'd tie our winter sleds to the back of the truck's bumper and carefully pull us kids around in the tall, summer grass. Nobody died. No serious head injuries. No tick bites. It's pretty remarkable, haha!
After looping around in the Arboretum for a few miles, we stopped at the Oxbow Bakery in Montlake. I got a couple slices of peanut butter cheesecake, to take home. My son chose a few slices of pizza.
6/99 - 2/17/2011. My precious boy. Adopted in November 1999 as a crazy 6-month old, he retained that crazy personality until he died. Always at my side, a big gray lovemuffin headwarmer (thanks for that phrase, Liz), always willing to share everything with me, especially if it was mine to begin with! I took him to the vet's last summer when his appetite changed. All tests came back negative, but there was some part of me that knew something was wrong. Finally, in January, back to the vet's for a cough, and a devastating diagnosis: cancer. 11 wonderful years with him; I had hoped for many more. I miss him so much. RIP, Gremmie.
