American Motor Corporation (AMC) Gremlin

Overview

Produced: 1970-1978, 600000 produced.
Types:

The Gremlin was to the American students what the Citroen 2CV was for the French.  The car was introduced on the first of April in 1970 but not as a joke.  This was one of AMC's best-selling cars.  The Gremlin had both six cylinder and V-8 engines available.  The V-8 engines were 5 litres and delivered 152 brake horsepower.  The car was in reality an AMC Hornet that was chopped off behind the front doors. 

The gremlin also had a 2 litre version released in 1977 and the engine came from audi and porche (out of the 924).  The car was brought out with the new body in 1977.
