This will be a fun project...

Pretty unique motor mounts!

Sanderson make's some block-hugger shorty headers that might work for you - or you might want to look at some Ram's Horn style Corvette exhaust manifolds..

I can understand why people will scratch their head, but I see a unique looking car that will make people smile just like you said, also lightweight with a V8 is another big reason.

I live in Houston and I spotted the car one day during bumper to bumper traffic on a fairly large street. It was at a mechanic's place set back almost 100 yards from the street, there is no way I could have seen it driving normal speed down that street, and I had been looking for a Gremlin for about 2-3 years before that because I knew they were hard to find. So I lucked out in that regard.


And I'm glad someone else thinks the motor mounts look good, that will make my dad happy. I was a little skeptical at first...

This is TOO cool. My best friends mom had a Gremlin X when I was growing up.

Hey all these small cars can be cool with the right treatment, don't listen to any haters you come across. Just check out my Pinto rendering in the Multimedia section.
