AMC Gremlin Heavy Knit Quarter-Zip Sweatshirt
Built for fans of the compact car that refused to blend in, this heavy knit quarter-zip sweatshirt honors the AMC Gremlin and its unmistakable 1970s presence. AMC introduced the Gremlin in 1970 using a shortened Hornet platform, then developed the nameplate through X, Custom, and GT packages, including a V8 option. Its story continued through Canadian assembly, VAM production in Mexico, and the later AMC Spirit connection. A strong layer for cool-day drives, garage time, and classic-car gatherings.
The AMC Gremlin was American Motors Corporation's subcompact economy car, introduced on April 1, 1970, and sold in the United States through 1978 in a single two-door body style. AMC design chief Dick Teague and stylist Bob Nixon developed the idea from a shortened version of AMC's compact Hornet, giving the car its distinctive truncated, kammback-like rear. AMC marketed it as "the first American-built import" while competing with domestic rivals such as the Ford Pinto and Chevrolet Vega, plus imports including the Volkswagen Beetle and Toyota Corolla. The Gremlin was built in the United States and Canada, while AMC's Vehículos Automotores Mexicanos subsidiary manufactured versions in Mexico from 1974 to 1983. The model evolved through X, Custom, and GT packages and offered four-, six-, and V8-cylinder engines at different points. After 671,475 Gremlins were produced, AMC replaced it for 1979 with the restyled AMC Spirit, which continued through 1983. In Mexico, VAM retained the Gremlin name for its Spirit-based sedan through 1983.
