1974 AMC Gremlin X 1:24 Motormax Fresh Cherries

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

The AMC Gremlin (also American Motors Gremlin) is a subcompact automobile introduced in 1970, manufactured and marketed in a single, two-door body style (1970–1978) by American Motors Corporation (AMC), as well as in Mexico (1974–1978) by AMC's Vehículos Automotores Mexicanos (VAM) subsidiary.

Using a shortened Hornet platform and bodywork with a pronounced kammback tail, the Gremlin was classified as an economy car and competed with the Chevrolet Vega and Ford Pinto, as well as imported cars including the Volkswagen Beetle and Toyota Corolla. The small domestic automaker marketed the Gremlin as "the first American-built import."

The Gremlin reached a total production of 671,475 over a single generation—and was superseded by a restyled and revised variant, the AMC Spirit.

1974:

The Arab Oil Embargo of October 1973 came just as the 1974 model year began. AMC improved the Gremlin's back seat. A deeper front fascia made the car appear longer. A larger front bumper was mounted on self-restoring telescoping gas and oil cylinders. Unlike most other designs, the Gremlin did not use a filler panel between the bumper and body. A stronger rear bumper was set lower—front and rear passenger car bumpers were now required by NHTSA to have uniform heights, take angle impacts, and sustain 5-mile-per-hour (8 km/h) impacts with no damage. The rear fascia was modified slightly to blend with the design changes. The Gremlin X stripe pattern was given a "hockey stick" look for 1974: the stripes followed the window line as it tapered aft, and swept up now to include four diagonal lines on the wide C-pillar. A new typeface for nameplates was used by AMC for 1974, including on the Gremlin. With the car's 1974 model year extended into November to delay the need to install catalytic converters required by United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 2004 regulations starting with 1975 models, AMC sold 171,128 1974 Gremlins, an increase of nearly 40% over 1973 and 130% over 1971.

This was long after the retirement of the Ford Pinto that suffered from stories about exploding gas tanks, as well as the Chevrolet Vega with its rusting bodies and durability problems with its aluminum engine.

1974 Volkswagen Type 181 Kurierwagen N4020 Beige Safari México Hot Wheels Malaysia

From Fandom:

The Volkswagen Type 181 "Kurierwagen" (German for "Messenger Car"), popularly known in the United Kingdom as the Trekker (Type 182 in all right-hand drive markets), in the United States as the Thing, and in Mexico as the Safari, was a small military vehicle produced by Volkswagen from 1969 to 1983, although civilian sales stopped in 1980. It was based in part on Volkswagen's Beetle Type I, and was a continuation and improvement over the Kübelwagen, which had been used by the German military during World War II. Like the Beetle upon which it was based, the Volkswagen Type 181 it is rear-engined with an air-cooled engine.

In 2016, the tooling for the Type 181 was changed while the Volkswagen 5-Pack was being produced. In the middle of the production run, the Type 181's bumpers were made to be part of the base; due to that, it is possible to find two variants of the pack, where the Type 181 has either metal or plastic bumpers.
