  • Jute? 2004 Volkswagen Jetta Ute

    Jute? 2004 Volkswagen Jetta Ute

    Our billions of fans know how much we love custom utes, and it does seem that VWs lend themselves to this sort of modification. In this case, a 2004 Jetta GLS was chopped and have some sporty bits and air suspension added for good measure. Really, this trucklet looks pretty awesome! The mods are pretty…

    Can You Canoe? 1985 Grumman Kubvan

    It’s true that Grumman has made much more than canoes, but this Eagle Scout knows this aerospace company most directly for its aluminum boats. Well, boats and LLV mail trucks. What the heck is a Kubvan? The interwebs say it was an earlier version of what became the LLV (Long-Life Vehicle), used by the United…

  • 1975 Mini 6-Wheel Pickup

    1975 Mini 6-Wheel Pickup

    We’ve featured quite a few pickup conversions (sometimes called Utes as a nod to Ozzies) over the years, but this is one of the most interesting. Not only was this Mini gifted a bed, it was extended substantially and gained two wheels in the process. Dually, you ask? No! An entire axle was added. We…

    Toyota “Solarup”

    This is just the type of vehicle to wake Oddimotive up from a slumber that’s been a bit too long. Here we have a Solara Convertible – the more reliable alternative to a Chrysler Sebring Convertible – which has had part of a Ford Explorer Sport Trac grafted onto its rear. We went with Solarup…

  • Bittersweet Opel

    Bittersweet Opel

    1985 Bitter is the incarnation of one man’s seemingly very reasonable dream: Supercar styling with reliable and common underpinnings. Erich Bitter, a former race driver, was the man with the vision and what we have here is an exotic body and luxury interior wrapped around an Opel Senator executive sedan. The Senator was the largest…

    Microcar 3-Fer!

    We’re big fans of multi-car deals and, needless to say, we like them even more when oddities are involved. In this case, we have a 3-fer where all three qualify as microcars, but we’re really here for the ACOMA Super Comtesse. The ACOMA is not just obscure, it’s Lane Motor Museum obscure! What’s not to…

    Mad Gramps: Mad Max-Themed 2002 Buick

    Did the world need the unholy combination of 2002 Buick Regal and Mad Max mods with a motorcycle thrown on top like a cherry? I guess the seller will find out, but we strongly support this as a pickup conversion! It’s not clear to us whether this is based on the supercharged Regal GS, or…
