I was perusing the amazing !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! yesterday and came across these hilarious 1970 Gremlin photos that I guess accompanied a road test. They seem to feature a British banker, or something.
He appears to be disappointed with the cargo capabilities.
And rather bemused by the Gremlin logo filler cap.
You can see the rest here:

Amazing. I haven't been able to find the corresponding test, so maybe these were never used which would be a shame. They look more like promo photos for an old BBC spy spoof where a butler solves international mysteries with the help of his trusty Gremlin.

I'm glad that pipe wasn't lit in the last pic.

The old NY blue with yellow plates were used from 66-73. WU is probably Westchester Co (the letters in the plates were assigned by county up until the Statue of Liberty plates IIRC), which could make it even more like a sir!
