Zombie Apocalypse Honda Civic
Here was have a 2004 Honda Civic EX with some interesting mod choices. Was it modified for night rallies? We say no, as the roof rack makes no sense. So, we must assume this was inspired by the Hyundai Elantra Coupe Zombie Survival Machine. Too bad the tire/wheel choice won’t make for good off-roading. Underneath…

Shortened Corvair Hot Rod
The title pretty much says it all! Yes, this is a hot rod/rat rod built on a Corvair platform and which has been greatly shortened. What’s left of the car shouldn’t weigh much; so the Corvair flat six should move this pretty well. Click for Craigslist ad Dana Point, CA, USA $8,500 Most would assume…

Rare Datsun 1200 Two-Door Wagon
Nissan positioned this V320 as a small van, and it is closely related to its trucks of the time; but we see it as a small wagon. Either way, it’s damn cool and has massive potential. This example needs a lot of help, both cosmetically and mechanically, but the good news is that it appears…

Mini Cooper Airplane Car
Let’s get this out of the way: this doesn’t fly. It’s just a novelty, but it’s an unusual one. Apparently, this was used by Delta Airlines for some sort of promotion. The Delta decals/logos have been removed; so it’s now just a white Mini with fiberglass airplane bits. Want attention? This might be for you……

A Former Family Chariot? 1989 Colt Vista AWD w/Manual Trans
Here’s a forgotten Swiss Army knife of a car: The Mitsubishi Chariot, which was sold in the US as the Dodge Colt Vista and Eagle Vista Wagon. We see this as a do-anything vanlet, which would be a great addition to any fleet. Well, it would be truly great if it ran… The late 80s…

Advertising Prop: Surf City Belly Up Van
Needless to say, advertising is all about getting attention. Sometimes, that yields genuinely odd vehicles, like this Ford van body mounted upside down on a Ford Ranger pickup. The base vehicle here is a 195K miles, four cylinder-powered Ranger with 5-speed manual trans – probably a pretty basic model. The ad proudly lists a new…

Kristi KT3 Snowcat with Needs
Today’s feature is a rare Kristi KT3 Snowcat in non-running, but essentially complete, condition. These cool little critters were made in the 1950s and 60s and featured Volkswagen engines, as well as hydraulic leveling systems. The Kristi company built these in Denver, Colorado, which makes sense. This one found its way south to New Mexico,…

Tron/Transformers Chevrolet Spark (?)
We’re oddly drawn to the Chevy Spark, though we often wish the Sonic’s turbo I4 would end up in it in order to make a really goofy little pocket rocket. Why is this here? Well, it’s because the photo below grabbed our attention. The seller seems to have applied what he or she calls “Tron…

S14 240SX Pickup Conversion
Here’s one we’ve never seen. Not only was this S14 240SX converted into a pickup, but it has a serious lift and massive, off-road tires. The seller claims this can do highway speeds and that everything works except the power windows. Normally, we’d worry about driveline bits, but this car is easy to update with…

Poorly Done F50 Replica with Crack Pipe Price
We assume there’s a Fiero under all the fiberglass, but we’re not 100% sure? Are you? The seller doesn’t provide much useful information, aside from indicating this has a six cylinder “turbo engine”; but the ad does mention Ferrari several times in only a few sentences. Isn’t that all you need to know for $60K?…
