British Black Gold
Ahh…the Lotus Europa. Never has such a great car been so amazingly ugly. Add in the black and gold John Player Special color scheme and you have one of the coolest, weirdest things ever. Unfortunately, this car’s owner had some health issues, so the car has sat unused since 2007 and was not prepped for…

Silvia with her Top Off: S15 Varietta Roller
Though the S13 and S14 Nissan Sylvias were popular in the US, where they were known as 240SX, the S15 verision, produced from 1999 to 2002, never made it to the US. Nissan did offer a soft-top convertible version of the S13 for a couple years, with that car converted at ASC in California. Few…

“The car smells like weed and Cool Water cologne.. oowee!”
Yes, this is Snoop Dogg’s “Snoop Deville”, which started life as a 1974 Coupe Deville. It has the requisite 90s lowrider bits, but the interior is remarkably subtle. The theme here is green. The celebrity factor accounts for most of the asking price here, as this would otherwise just be a ’74 Caddy lowrider, probably…

This is a Mitsubishi Micro Cab fire truck which found its way to the US. These are imported for farm and industrial use, but are not road legal in the States. Notably, the Micro Cab is a competitor for the VERY oddly names Mazda Scrum! The seller says the driver’s side (right side in this…

This apparently humble little sedan features an all-alloy engine equipped with a single overhead cam and also features four-wheel independent suspension. This and the 504 launched the “angry eyebrows” look which would…

Six-Wheeled 1968 Cadillac!
Rarely do we see such a bizarre vehicle with so little explanation. But, does it really need any? This is a strange combination of a shorty, in terms of its cockpit and a stretch, in terms of its hood. Once that work was done, how could one not have gone added and made it a…

Chopped 924 Turbo
Usually, we here the term chopped in relation to old school hot rods or perhaps mini trucks; but today’s feature is a chopped and “overly body kitted” 1979 Porsche 924 Turbo. The seller recently spent about $2,700 on leakdown and compression tests, plus some rewiring to get this running. We suspect that may prove to…

Most Dangerous Vehicle Ever:Chopped Reliant Robin with no Rollover Protection
What could be the most dangerous car ever? How about a Reliant Robin with absolutely no rollover protection? Yes, some genius chopped the top of this rollover-prone three-wheeler and added no roll bar. The seller claims this was ‘professionally chopped’, if there is such a thing, and that the windshield frame is reinforced. We’re not…

The Other Super Coupe
Most enthusiasts are aware of the 1989-1995 Ford Thunderbird Super Coupe and most know that it was a torque monster that, despite its relative large size, delivered impressive engine performance and handling. What many don’t know is that Plymouth offered a Volare Super Coupe for 1978 – as if the Volare wasn’t super enough in…
