Poor spelling aside, that is not a bad looking car.

^^What I love best about that ad is he has the pictures on his computer but had to take a picture of the computer monitor in order to be able to post them?

Re: the Pacer, 103,000 miles is still not bad on a car that old. Probably be a good one to restore if you're into those. I've never thought the Pacers and Gremlins were as ugly as most people do. I think they're kind of cool to see in good condition on the street nowadays. I wouldn't want one for me but I do kind of like them in a nostalgic kind of way.

Greg, train wrecks are kinda cool to see but wouldn't want to be in one either.

I figured the odo read 03771 so a 1 would make it 103771.

The Gremlin X with a V8 and a 4 speed were nothing to sneeze at. A friend of mine in Rochester, NY bought a new one in 73. That little car could move! He bought the Levies Gremlin X with blue paint and white stripes.

You don't see them very often, and I've seen none around here.

This 73 is fairly stock..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzRHyJe1Ynk

Here's A 74 X[?] on YouTube that is or was for sale.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_K9SVX6TjE Not sure I trust the owner or the guy selling it. LOL
