Convertible Chevy Dually with 454
Structural rigidity? What’s that? This Chevy dually has had its roof chopped entirely off and its windsheild chopped, as well. No roll bar was added for support, so this much have ‘interesting handling. The only good news is it’s body on frame, so, in truth, it’s less of a handling problem than an overall rigidity…

Quickie: Flintmobile!
Does this “car” need any introduction? Apparently, this is based on a golf car, which means it isn’t street legal. Still, this might be the strangest thing in your retirement community! Click for eBayad McHenry, IL, USA (or northern Florida?) $4,000 with ZERO bids, reserve not met, absurd $29,995 BIN price and a bit under…

Seeking the Holy Grail? Why W8? Act now!
Act now, as the Grail has been found! We hereby present a Passat W8 wagon with manual transmission. These are rare in any condition, but this one claims under 42,000 miles and appears to be in superb condition. A low-mile, AWD, V8 wagon with manual trans? Yes, indeed – it doesn’t get much better. Even…

Hatchback + Engine Upgrade + Manual Yields Zoom-Zoom
Many may never have realized that the first generation “GG” Mazda6 offered three body styles at launch: sedan, wagon and hatchback. Today’s example is the rare hatch with V6 and manual. The Mazdaspeed 6 will always be the performance leader, but these Duratec V6-powered examples are no slouches and the Speed 6 was only offered…

2012 Camaro on 32s (DubTwelves?)
Doesn’t the title say it all? We’re just amazed this has been bid up to almost $25K. Click for eBay ad Miami, FL, USA (of course!) $24,600 with 26 bids, no reserve and half a day to go No, it’s not photoshopped. Again… These guys don’t look very happy. How about a sideways picture of…

4WD Wagon FTW!
No, Ford never built ’em like this. This is a custom job involving a 1972 Gran Torino County Squire and something else. The seller claims this has a recently rebuilt 351 Cleveland with “special cam headers and carburetor.” The one engine shot shows no carb, so we’re not sure what to think of that. Presumably,…

Beautifully Executed 1977 Hiccup
If you’ve ever wanted a 1977 Honda Civic pickup conversion, this is the one to get! The seller points out that this conversion was done with great attention to detail and that people ask all the time if it is a factory truck. From the pictures, we understand how many would make that mistake. It’s…

Why Doesn’t YOUR Automatic, V6 Accord Have Fairies?
Today’s feature is mind boggling. This is a 1992 Honda Accord with lambo-style scissor doors, 20-inch rimz and a number of other poor choices. The owner claims this car has 158K miles and seven TVs. Do you need more info? Maybe you do: The “car club” associated with this vehicle has a MySpace page! It…

Hopefully, This Car is Only Figuratively “On Fire”
Here we have a Renault Fuego Turbo with manual trans and claimed sub-58K mileage. What’s not to love? Yes, this was an odd attempt at a sports coupe by Renault and was made in the days when they were a state-owned enterprise. Like all other period Renaults, these had poor reputations for reliability and, in…

Rare Custlass 442 Salon with Four-Speed Manual
This is one seriously rare and odd beast – the ugly “Salon” version of the late 70s Cutlass in 442 trim with four-speed manual! Note: when we say “ugly”, it means we want it. The seller claims to be daily driving this oddity, which bodes well for a future owner – at least is hasn’t…
