5k: In The Jeans: 1973 AMC Gremlin Levi's Edition


In 1973 AMC  released a Levi's option interior for the Gremlin which was actually made from spun nylon instead of cotton due to NHTSA fire regulations.  The Levi's interior didn't do much to change the fact that the Gremlin was an abominable little compact but it is good for a few laughs.  Find this 1973 AMC Gremlin Levi's Edition for sale in Costa Mesa, CA for $4,050 reserve-not-met.


The seller states he bought it from the original owner and it is a one owner vehicle.  Huh?  Apparently the new Common Core math standards are already achieving the desired results.  Regardless, this Gremlin does look minty clean aside from a few interior issues.




This Levi's seat looks like the cushion has added on a few lbs and the seams are splitting.  No more Big Macs for you Mr Seat Cushion.  More Jazzercise, fewer carbs.  The Gremlin itself is 6-cylinder powered mated to an automatic and should be mind numbingly slow.


See a better way sit on Levi's even while you aren't wearing pants.  tips@dailyturismo.com
