Gremlins in a Gremlin is just about as far back as I can go with the Pesky Greml Wayback Machine. This cartoon was done with old fashion pen and ink with just a little help with the grey from Microsoft Paint. The image can be found in the AMC Gremlin Illustration Gallery.
Here is something that is a little different than what usually shows up here on the pages of the Pesky Gremlins website. The picture isn’t what you should look at. Take a good look at the frame, which was built to appear as if it were put together by one of our gremlins.
The frame was assembled by Ned Serleth, whose MGA is depicted in the picture. The picture itself was done as a collaboration for a story that Ned had written for an automotive magazine. Unfortunately, the article was not published.
Ned writes, “The gremlin frame came first from the scrap pile, then the angles were eyeballed, and finally the welder burned a few holes but left enough material to hold it together.” The rough welds and rust really complete the gremlin appearance.
