Quickie: 1993 Centurion Ford Bronco Dually
Talk about a tease! Here we have one of the rare Centurion four-door Bronco conversions, apparently set up as a dually. Sadly, that’s about all we know about it… The ad does indicate that the truck has an automatic trans (no surprise) and gas engine. To get any more info, you have to call Charlie.…

Isuzu Bellel Three-Fer: 60s Japanese Diesel Sedan Goodness
The Isuzu Bellel (which, the interwebs state, references fifty bells – the meaning of Isuzu) was Isuzu’s first in-house design, but was inspired by the Hillman/Sunbeam Imp Minx, which Isuzu previously built under license. These are rear-wheel drive sedans and were originally offered with diesel or gasoline engines. Today’s feature includes not one, not two,…

Bond Minicar 250 G
No, the infamous Reliant Robin was not the only three-wheeled, British microcar. About 25 years before the Robin, there was the Bond Minicar. Today’s feature car is the best of that breed – at least in terms of being a complete car – the Mark G. It also represents the end of a nearly twenty-year…

Panther Motors Scoot Coupe P150 Trike
The Panther Motors Scoot Coupe is pitched as a side-by-side scooter and is allegedly street legal, at least somewhere. We think it looks pretty damned fun. This is a trike, but it at least has the twin wheels in the front. One can hope this means it goes around corners. Despite the three-wheeled nature of…

Cowavanagon, Dude!
We don’t need to add much here – this is a 1990 Vanagon converted into some sort of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles party van. The concept is bizarre, but we love certain quotes from the run-on description: “In addition to this auction I am including a replica Leonardo suit from the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja…

Studebaker Business Coupe on Ford Explorer Frame
Why not? According to the seller, everything here works. The next owner will need to decide whether to keep the rat rod concept going or repaint. We think it should probably stay this way, but it’d be tempting to seal up that hood, if possible. Apparently, this carries a clean Studebaker title; so this may…

Rat Rod 1967 VW Beetle
The brown is strong with this one. Here we have a heavily rat rodded ’67 Beetle with luggage rack, rear fender skirts and many a personal touch. This is truly an oddity and we’re definitely drawn to it! The engine is a 1641 and was rebuilt within the 4K miles, per the seller. The exterior…

Non-Fiero Lamborghini Replica
The seller claims this is an all-custom, tube-frame car with a carbon fiber cockpit tub. Presumably, the body is from a Fiero kit, but we’re not sure. What we do know is this sounds like a lot of work for something that doesn’t work; so a Fiero might have been a great idea. What we…

FREE Abandoned Vanagon Pickup Conversion Project
Well, it’s free if you never want to register it. Should you choose to do so in California, you’ll owe $665 in back registration fees. Still, this looks like a parts van to us, but some ambitious individual might try to finish it as a truck… We love the ad text (below), as the seller…

Kenmeri from Bahrain: 1974 Nissan Skyline 240K GT
The C110 Skyline was known as the Kenmeri due to the ad campaign which launched it and featured decidedly non-Japanese actors. This started life as a right-hand drive 240K GT but is now left-hand drive and features an L28 in place of the L24. The work on this car appears to have been done to…
