  • Fulfill Your Land Yacht Fantasies!

    Fulfill Your Land Yacht Fantasies!

    When I look at this car, I hear 70s porn music and picture a pimp walking up to it.  The seller seems to agree, based on this quote: “This is a great Huggy Bear Cruiser.” This is a claimed 42K miles original and the condition supports that claim.  The seller also claims it is one…

  • Perfect Pulsar for LeMons or ChumpCar

    Perfect Pulsar for LeMons or ChumpCar

    Despite FWD and no real chance of winning, this rough Nissan Pulsar seems like a perfect LeMons or ChumpCar vehicle for someone not taking him or herself too seriously. At the $500 asking price, this qualifies for any beater racing series and is a manual, non-T-Top car.  The seller, who didn’t take the time to…

  • Quickie: Baja Beetle Project

    Quickie: Baja Beetle Project

    Here we have a Baja Beetle listed as a project but without many specifics.  Sadly, those extra wheels are just laying there – this is not a six-wheeler (unlike the Festiva pickup we recently posted). Despite providing almost no useful information, the text in this add raises questions: 1) What the hell does “panchostein” mean??…

  • Low Mileage Kia Micro Van with a Catch

    Low Mileage Kia Micro Van with a Catch

    This Kia Micro Van is a rare site outside (South) Korea.  It’s a cool oddity, but there’s one major catch – it might not be possible to certify this for road use in the US. Do you have a farm?  If so, this could be the vehicle for you!  The seller claims 10.8K kilometers and,…

  • A Corolla for Restoration?

    A Corolla for Restoration?

    A rusty, rough Corolla is usually just a good candidate for scrap metal and engine donation, but this one is a rare convertible, done by a company called Griffith and likely sold at the Toyota dealer at the time.  Does that mean it’s worth restoring? The good news here is 67K miles, but that can…

  • Not Just Any Suzuki X90

    Not Just Any Suzuki X90

    Any Suzuki X90 is an Oddimobile and, arguably, a WTF car.  This one ramps it up a couple notches with pink exterior paint. If an X90 just isn’t weird enough for you, how about a pink one? This seems to be a RWD version, as the seller never mentions 4WD and no transfer case shifter…

  • WTF Custom Hot Rod with Mitsubishi Four Cylinder

    WTF Custom Hot Rod with Mitsubishi Four Cylinder

    Odd, homemade design plus Mitsu four cylinder and manual tranny?  Sure! This supposedly has bits from an XJ6 and from whatever Mitsubishi sacrificed an engine to the cause.  The top came from a Geo Metro (convertible?). Someone spent a lot of time on this and is not likely to see a return on his or…

  • Fly in/Drive Home: Citroen Mehari

    Fly in/Drive Home: Citroen Mehari

    Okay, of you’re in the US, driving home from the Netherlands might be ‘interesting’.  Still, this super-cool Citroen Mehari is worth a look. We featured one of these back in 2013 and we still love them!  The seller provides only a little into, but these are remarkably simple and the photos show a car in…

  • 6-Wheel Festiva Pickup!

    6-Wheel Festiva Pickup!

    From time to time, we see shitboxes – often Ford Festivas – chopped and made into pickups.  The front-wheel drive setup and rear suspension seem to lend themselves to this.  This is the first six-wheeler Festiva we have ever seen, however. The seller points out that this is one of a kind and the ad…

  • Short Type 2: Project car or Objet d’Art?

    Short Type 2: Project car or Objet d’Art?

    Here we have a shortened VW Bus, much like that sold be Gas Monkey Garage at Scottsdale this year, but in rather worse condition. This bus has no engine, trans or title and is claimed to be rusted out.  This is likely going to be an art object at this point, but would sure be…
