Ha! Someone else who admits to owning a Gremlin. Mine was a ‘73. Most appropriately named car of all time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I loved my 71 Gremlin. I did. The engine was strong and if you got past the weirdness of it - it actually was a good product.

Except the back hatch back window was held on by two cheap clamps. One day while driving down the road - one of those clamps failed - the other couldn’t hold the window by itself and - BANG!

Busted glass all over the road.
