    Japanese Fire Truck in the US

    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…

  • Rare In USA: Peugeot 304 Sedan

    Rare In USA: Peugeot 304 Sedan

    Okay, ALL Peugeot 304 variants are rare here, with the sedan likely the most common among them.  Still, have you ever seen one? 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!

    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

    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

    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

    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…

  • Chevy Rectum – err, Spectrum – In the Porn Capital of the World!

    Chevy Rectum – err, Spectrum – In the Porn Capital of the World!

    This Giugiaro-designed hatchback is an Isuzu Gemini (I-Mark in the US market) rebadged as a Chevy.  Isuzu sold some cool, turbocharged variants of this car, but Chevy did not get them.  While this example is badged as a “Sport”, it is just an automatic-equipped, naturally aspirated version.  Still, it’s an excuse to go to Chatsworth, even…

  • The One and Only Satin Galaxie 500 5.9 Cummins

    The One and Only Satin Galaxie 500 5.9 Cummins

    A modern, turbo-diesel inline six in a full-sized 60s sedan.  Why not? This Galaxie was featured on BangShift.com before it was painted matte black.  It features a Cummins turbo-diesel inline six with a claimed 500+ horsepower and who knows how much torque. The asking price is high, but so is the cool factor!  The matte…

  • CADILLAC FLEETWOOD MURDERED-OUT TRIPLE BLACK SPECIAL EDITION

    CADILLAC FLEETWOOD MURDERED-OUT TRIPLE BLACK SPECIAL EDITION

    Okay, so we copied the screaming seller’s headline.  Anyway, we have here a 1995 Cadillac Fleetwood, which represents the Caprice-based (D-Body), rear-wheel drive, monster generation of Fleetwood.  For good measure, this one has an aftermarket – probably dealer installed – puffy top (AKA carriage roof) with the cheesiest lettering we’ve seen in some time. Per…
