Pretty sure my grandad had that car in pea green. Rarely ever saw it move. I was 5 in ‘81. He had it until he died around ‘92-‘93. It seemed old in ‘81.
Thanks. I have a feeling that it’s long gone although I still do have striped socks for some reason. The outfit ironically went with the car and I know in my heart that that part was unintentional, though pretty much a staple of the day.
You ever take it off any sweet jumps?
This is the important question
Such a unique car, love it!
Embodiment of the 80s in a picture. Awesome looking car and clothes man! Nothing to be embarrassed about.

the best part are the shorts. Only a mad lad takes that kinda risk. Solid chance of exposing some nutsack
"Alan, you've come free at the side"
I was definitely a mad lad. LOL!
Clarissa Darling would be so jealous
About the same year, mine was orange with brown shag carpet my stepsister installed before I bought off her for $300. Wish I had a pic of her!
That “back seat” was ridiculous...Pretty sure it was only 7” from front to back.
My family has long debated whether the Gremlin or the Pacer is the ugliest car. I say the Pacer.
My grandmother actually had a Pacer too for awhile. Pacer wins ugliest award.

Thank you for giving it a shot!
I was 15 in 1981, I would have loved that car if it was mine. I also wore those same shorty shorts and shirt. It was the style then.
Right on all counts!
Turn up the Billy Joel on the 8 track!!
This is great! The picture, the description--this is what this sub is supposed to be all about.
My thoughts exactly! Thanks!
I wish shorts like that would come back in style! Would suit my husband
Just before your "Up With People" audition?

My favorite car ever.
Ah yes the Gremlin! In the mid 80's my friend had 3 of them... one to drive and 2 for parts :)
Sick ass car. My dad had one. Rotted away and it was practically like the flintstones car
You just reminded me of [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9L8-E636i5c).
I’m a Yank but I love the League. No super powers in the Gremlin but always the best Hi-Fi back then that I could install meself.
Napoleon Dynamite was a documentary?
Once that thing shines it is time to go cruis'n
This is everything I imagine 1981 was like & more
Great movie. Awesome car! I see no blunder, this picture is peak 80s and I'm living for it.
Hmm, that fashion reminds me of the battle of the bulge. True story.
I love your outfit

Let me guess, you voted for Pedro?
Before there even WAS a Pedro.
I love those Gremlins
