1970 AMC Gremlin V8 FOR SALE

 

You are looking at a first year 1970 AMC Gremlin, complete with original emblems and most of the interior. This great car was originally built by one of our beloved member Ben Moore and my dad and I purchased it from him and have been perfecting it ever since. As my father has since passed and I have brought it to a completion point I am happy with and have other projects on queue, I am offering it for sale.

 

This car is an unbelievable head turner - I get more attention at gas stations, car shows than any other car I have ever owned! This says a lot since I have been a car aficionado since before I was old enough to even drive.

 

This has been a project car for me and my dad for several years. As a result, I can say with confidence and personal knowledge that every bolt on the front and rear suspension, drive train and brakes have been loosened, tightened and have had anti seize applied. The floor and frame are solid.

 

The car is extremely fast and solid. Even the handling is pretty darn good for a 1970’s car. The car is fully functional with wipers and windows. I have the original heater box but it is not installed

All locks are keyed the same and are fully functional.

 

The car includes the following features:

 

355 small block Chevy engine (350-400 hp) in a 2,730 lb chassis.

 

Double hump/Fuelie cylinder heads with new valve springs

Comp cams magnum roller tip rockers

New CS1095R (GM 350/350 HP) camshaft and valvesprings

Edelbrock air gap intake manifold

Holley 1850 600cfm vacuum secondary carb with dual feed

K&N filter with Xstream flow top

MSD Pro billet distributor

MSD blaster coil

Accel short plugs and 8mm wires

3/4 length headers with 2.5” intermediate pipe and Purple Hornies glass packs

Holley 130 GPH mechanical fuel pump with 8an feed/6 an return with return style adj fpr

8 gallon aluminum fuel cell

Aluminum water pump

Aluminum radiator with dual speed electric fans controlled by AMC “Weather Eye” fan switch (relay protected)

Jegs built GM TH350 with 10” Jegs converter and manual valve body

Hurst quarter stick shifter

New AC Delco gold gear reduction starter

Ford 8” Rear end

New master cylinder with brake line pressure switch for brake lights that don’t default to on

Properly wired 3 wire GM alternator with functioning dash light

New ignition switch

New tires

 

But with its unique quality, comes some ‘bumps and bruises’ with its age- including the following (all seen in photos):

 

Rear driver side quarter panel and rocker panel rust

Bubbling on passenger rear quarter

Just beyond surface rust spots on the Rallye wheels

Passenger side fender rust

The headliner is out - although I do have the torn headliner for a template

 

$12,000.00 OBO
