Sportbak – Enough Said.
Yes, folks, it’s the infamous Nissan Pulsar Sportbak. The idea here was that the car could be used three ways – as a ‘mini wagon'(shown), a hatchback using a different hatch or open air with no hatch at all and the t-tops found on most, if not all, of these cars. Yes, this one comes…

4WD, Manual Hatchback!
Though this look like a B12 Sentra “Sport Coupe” from some angles, it’s a 1988 Subie GL hatchback, which means you get 4WD as part of the mix. This would arguably be the ultimate winter beater in a snow state, but it would be a shame to encourage it to rust away. This seems to…

Super Trooper?
Troopers are rarely seen these days, but they’ve always been cool and quite capable off road. This two-door with manual trans steps things up a notch! This looks like a great vehicle and I’m not sure that 200K+ miles is much for an Isuzu truck. Click for Craigslist ad South Bay, CA $2,400 Sporty two-door!…

Welcome the 80s with a 242GT!
This isn’t our first Volvo 242GT, but these are absolutely worth posting! No, they don’t offer a lot of power, but they offer cool rarity and their own brand of sporty on top of the already awesome brick. Any concerns you have over power and handling can easily be addressed by a visit to IPD’s…

If not already, the 1985 Honda Accord should be on your shopping list; so why not go “all-out” and pick up this spiffy Limousine conversion?

From Humble Roots Came Something Interesting
Is there any car more humble than a Dodge Shadow? I’m sure you can come up with one, but you get the point. Most Shadows fell into the category of “basic transportation”, but some interesting, turbocharged engines were available here, just like on all other K-car derivative. A Mitsubishi V6 even snuck in late in…

Dodge Dakota Town Car
…why not add a camper shell? The result reminds us of early limousines. Perhaps the bed is extremely luxurious? We’re fans of the Dakota convertible here at Oddimotive, but this is the first camper shell we’ve seen on one. The seller claims it runs strong, even at 300K+ miles. It’s been towed behind an RV,…
