Six-Door 1979 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight Armbruster Stageway Limo
Do you want a unique family hauler without too much cargo space? How about an Olds Eighty-Eight with six doors? Sure, it probably hauled families to funerals, but at least it’s not an actual hearse. As a bonus, this sale includes a 1970s child seat/death trap!

Shifty Panther: 1996 Mercury Grand Marquis with Manual Swap
The Panther platform had a very long life, mostly underneath taxis, police cars and grandparental transport.

StudeBlazer: Studebaker Lark on Blazer K5 Frame
We love old Chevy Blazers, so we briefly shed a tear when we find one has been sacrificed; but it’s a relief when the end result is awesomely odd. In this case, someone decided a 1962 Studebaker Lark two-door post would make a good off-roader. We tend to agree.

Renault Alliance Coupe 2-Fer Avec Special Editions
We have featured Renault Alliances before, but never two as part of one sale. Today’s feature includes a Motor Trend Car of the Year Edition and a GTA parts car. Why is the more desirable car the parts car? One word: rust.
