Looking for a classic economy car? Dont miss this one at MotoeXotica Classic Cars, a 1976 AMC Gremlin. This car was made in Kenosha, Wisconsin and delivered to Charlesworth Pontiac-AMC/Jeep, Inc. on Highway 71 South in Springdale, Arkansas. Its first owner took delivery on December 17, 1976 and he owned the car until early 80’s and then sold the Gremlin to a friend who then owned the car until 2016, the car remained in the Springdale Arkansas area since new until we acquired the vehicle. We have never seen such a correct Gremlin with so much documentation, this would be a great entry level classic car to invest and hold on to long term!
This Gremlin left Kenosha with the following optional equipment whitewall tires, interior appointment package, tinted glass all windows, AM pushbutton radio and a heavy-duty cooling system.
The factory correct Sunshine Yellow exterior is in near-excellent overall condition, including the blacked-out headlight and taillight bezels, but there is a minor mark near the passenger-side front marker light. The cars trim is in good condition, too. The glass panels are in overall good order but the windshield bears some blemishes from previous windshield wipers. This Gremlin rolls on 195/75R14 whitewall tires at all four corners, surrounding factory wheels. The cars body panels are straight and solid and theres a metal rack atop the roof for extra storage. The cargo area is in good condition and includes a full-sized spare tire. The bumpers are in very good order, the engine bay is tidy and the battery looks new.
Under the hood is AMCs 232 CID straight six-cylinder engine, backed by a Borg-Warner three-speed manual transmission with floor shift.
Inside, the cars tan interior looks good. The split-folding front seat and fold-down rear seat are in very good condition, the complementing tan carpet is in good order while the matching tan headliner looks great. The tan instrument panel looks good and the original two-spoke steering wheels add to the cars economy vibe. The inner door panels are in very good order.

About AMC
AMC was created on 14 january 1954 when Nash-Kelvinator Corporation & Hudson Motor Car Company merged, soon becoming one of the four major manufacturers in the market and finally the last independent car manufacturer in the United States. At the beginning company specialized in small cars and slowly moved to the medium-sized category.
AMC acquired the loss-making Jeep division from Kaiser-Frazer in 1970 and turned the Jeep brand into anew growth.
In the late 70's AMC expanded its range of four-wheel drive passenger car with AMC Eagle, which soon proved to be very popular, especially among young people. Helped by the fact that The AMC Eagles were the only four-wheel-drive passenger cars produced in the U.S. at the time.
1987 the Chrysler Corporation acquired the entire share equity of American Motors Corporation.
The following year, Chrysler ended all the AMC passenger car production, but the victorious Jeep brand. Here are some of their most significant models:
Rambler: The Rambler was introduced in 1950 and was the first car to be sold under the AMC brand. It was a compact car designed for economy and practicality, and it quickly became popular due to its low price and fuel efficiency.
AMC Javelin: The Javelin was a sporty, two-door coupe that was introduced in 1968. It was designed to compete with the Ford Mustang and the Chevrolet Camaro and was praised for its unique styling and powerful V8 engine.
AMC Gremlin: The Gremlin was a subcompact car that was introduced in 1970. It was known for its quirky styling, compact size, and fuel efficiency, and it was one of the first American-made cars to be designed with fuel economy in mind.
AMC Pacer: The Pacer was a unique, compact car that was introduced in 1975. It was known for its large windows and bubble-like design, which made it stand out from other cars on the road. Although it was not a commercial success, it remains a popular collector's car today.
AMC Eagle: The Eagle was a four-wheel-drive crossover that was introduced in 1980. It was one of the first vehicles to combine the features of an SUV with a passenger car, and it was praised for its off-road capabilities and versatility.
