Drift While Carrying Sheets of Plywood!
Here we have a super-rare, manual transmission Toyota Previa! Sadly, the manual precludes it being of the supercharged and/or all-wheel-drive variety, but a mid-engine, manual trans minivan is cool in an of itself. As the seller states: GOOD for Carrying goods, or Drifting!! Condition looks rather dodgy, so we recommend offering $500 or less. You’ll probably be…

Munga means Mehrzweck UNiversal Geländewagen mit Allradantrieb
Which, in turn, means “multi-purpose universal cross-country car with all-wheel drive”, at least if we trust Wikipedia. This 1960 DKW Munga is super-rare in the US. Be the only one in your zip code! The seller provides almost no information, except that an extra chassis is included in the sale (?!). At a $1,200 asking…

Eckler’s 1969 Corvette Shooting Brake
Here we have an incomplete 1969 Corvette Sport Wagon shooting brake project. According to the seller, this is a relatively low mileage Vette. A previous owner started the project in the 70s and passed away before it was completed. The car then went into storage for 30 years or so. There were a few kits…

1987 Nissan MEGA MAX with Video
The 1987 Nissan Mega Max appears to be a regional special edition consisting of ground effects, exhaust tips, wheels and a badge. Here’s the Southern CA dealer association video for this “special edition”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=04KtjXBxHbs Aesthetically, this car is in poor condition, but the seller claims it passed smog recently; so it may be good mechanically.…

Blasphemy or Interesting? Rodded Porsche 928
Porsche purists have long struggled with the 928, as it was once planned to be the replacement for the 911. Obviously, that didn’t work out, but it seems to have threatened many an old-school 911, based on mockery of this car’s front-mounted, vee configuration, water-cooled engine. Things have started to turn around a bit the…

K-Car + Wagon + Turbo + Wood Grain + Brown
This is a thing of (strange) beauty. The seller says this needs cosmetic work and we agree. What he or she doesn’t mention is the fact that the engine is out of the car, though one could infer that based on the note that a rebuilt engine is included. This is at the LeMons $500…

A Duster Worth Saving
Although the muscle car era had peaked as of about 1971, there were interesting offerings around for several years afterward. This 360/4-speed Duster is among them and is worth saving despite apparent terrible condition. The Duster was Plymouth’s semi-sporty compact offering and was closely related to the Dodge Dart. Much like the Chevy Nova and…

Oddimotive Advertising Idea?
Could this be your marketing concept, or should it be ours? Frankly, the truck itself is a bit too normal for us, but we like the idea. Supposedly, the interior is in ‘fair’ condition and the truck itself has 150K miles. That should be nothing on a diesel, though the almost-thirty years of history could…

Triumph GT6 Was 70s Customization Victim
Just a couple weeks ago, we featured our first Triumph GT6. Actually, we featured our first two in a single ad. Little did we know one so good would come along so soon after that post. This one did not survive the 70s without some delightfully tasteless modifications. This overly customized beast sat in a…

What Better Vehicle to Haul your Cadillac Land Yacht?
Here we have what we hope is a one-of-a-kind Cadillac car hauler. That is, in and of itself, awesome, but we also like any ad that states “comes with spare Eldorado.” “Ran when parked.” Those are famous last words. There are no interior pictures, but the seller says it needs work. Click for Craigslist ad…
