I should know this one, the door handle is a very good clue......

yeah the door handle will definatly tell you who made it. I think they used that handle on pretty much everything.

I KNOW I should know it, a friend of mine somewhere along the way had a car with that type of door handle. I think it's AMC.

Is it possibly a Javelin or an AMX?

**TheSilentChamber** · 10-11-2005, 12:46 AM

Yeah, its an AMC.

**TheSilentChamber** · 10-11-2005, 12:52 AM

I can think of about six differnt models that used that door handle in a 15 year span. Jeeps used it for a long time after that also. There also very expensive now for a good set, the alloy used in it didnt age so well, I'v seen good ones sell for over $100 a pair. I luckly have three sets sitting in my shop for future use if need be.

Yeah, its pretty easy to guess when you name the entire AMC lineup

. Its a 77 AMC Gremlin X.

YEP!! A buddy of mine had a 1978 Gremlin in high school. I KNEW I opened a car door with a handle like that many a drunken night in my past!!

This is one of the damn fucking funniest thing I have read in weeks. Nice threadjacking guys. Sweet cars to boot! And a trip down memory lane.

I bought this little POS when I was 16...still got the thing. 1987 Honda Civic GL, slow as crap with 92hp to the flywheel, though the 5 speed makes it a little fun to drive. 300 000 kms and still running great, except the muffler fell off so it's kinda noisy.

And it needs a throwout bearing..
And a thorough cleaning.
And I have to rip it apart to check all my stereo wiring, 'cause it stopped working.
