One Pic Wonder: 1985 Honda Accord Limousine
Yes, indeed, it’s a 1980s Accord limo! We’re curious about the interior, but the seller has denied us photos. Apparently, a company in Canoga Park, CA converted several of these, though we don’t know why. This one appears to have many needs; so it will be a special someone who decides to buy this and…

Dodge Caliber “Show Car” with Lambo Doors and SEMA Histroy
The Caliber just wasn’t odd enough, so someone decided to paint one “chameleon green” and add 22-inch wheels and lambo doors. In fact, someone did this for Lear corporation and it was shown as the 2006 SEMA show. As is often the case with such a car, this is all show (love it or hate…

Beyond the Typical Fiero Custom
This uses some Fiero bits, but is a mostly custom three-wheeler with a mid-mounted GM 350. What’s not to love? The seller claims this was built as a daily driver, but it wasn’t. It went 2,500 miles on the Hot Rod Power Tour in 2010 and now has 4,000 miles. Hmm. Regardless, if this thing…

Donkilicious Buick Centurion
Apparently, this Buick Centurion once belonged to Darren McFadden, the Doak Walker award-winning running back now with the Dallas Cowboys. Perhaps it’s for sale because the colors don’t work for his current team. Of course, these aren’t Raiders or Razorback colors, either; so that may not be it. Regardless, this features 32-inch wheels, donkilicious lift…

Save this Falcon Ranchero Project!
Falcon Rancheros are just plain cool! Although the Mustang was based on an updated 1964 Falcon, many parts still fit, which means you can do just about anything with one of these little trucklets. These didn’t come with a V8 until 1963, but they easily accept one. The owner of this one has done some…

One Pic Wonder: “Ran When Parked” Alfetta GT Project
It’s not clear how current the single pic included with this ad is; but the car sure looked good at the time. The seller claims this one was sidelined due to a failed u-joint; but now the car hasn’t run in twenty years or so. Given that, it’ll have a few more needs; but may…

Mercury Cyclone 351/4-speed
The Mercury Cyclone was different things in different years, having started as a variant of the compact Comet. This 1970 model, however, was a stand-alone, mid-sized model, although Cyclone would be rolled into the Montego lineup later. Cyclone typically meant performance, and this example, while not a CJ, fits that mold. This Cyclone GT was…

PT Cruiser Body on Tube Frame
If you’ve been really close to buying a PT Cruiser but were held back due to cylinder count and FWD, this is the car for you! While the exterior says PT Cruiser here, it’s actually a tube frame with Mustang II front end (a common hot rod trick), a Ford Ranger rear end and a…

A Bond-Mobile that not a Movie Car or a Bug
Yes, Bond Cars made something before the Reliant Robin-based Bug. This Equipe is based primarily on Triumph Herald parts, but with a unique fiberglass body that is rather attractive. The seller provides good pics here, but not much info. It seems the car was saved from the scrap yard and the engine doesn’t start. Given…

When Is a Thing not a Thing?
First off, a Thing is a real thing; but there’s not much Thing left in this thing. This is a tube frame buggy that happens to wear a VW Thing body. We think it’s awesome. $29K isn’t cheap, but the work looks great and this should be a lot of fun if you have a…
