One-Pic Pony: Poor Ad for Interesting, Wooden Crosley
Here we have a 1947 Crosley – something we love in any body type – with a homemade, wooden body. Unfortunately, the seller has included only one image, which means we can’t even see the front. Needless to say, we’re intrigued, but also worried about the mass of this beast. Click for eBay ad Perrysburg,…

Crofton Bug Project with many Needs
This isn’t our first Crofton Bug; but the other feature was in much better condition. This one supposedly ran recently, but it has a lot of cosmetic needs. These cool micro-Jeeps are based on the Crosley Farm-o-Road and use Crosley engines. These were only made for five years or so (roughly 1958 to the early…

A Crosley Incomplete Project Two-Fer
This two-fer will result in one working car, at best, and even that will take some time. Hopefully, the right buyer comes along to make something really nice out of these. They deserve it! This two-fer includes one 1950 Hot Shot and one 1951 Super Shot. These were very closely related; so most parts are…

Crosley-Based, Homemade 1958 Pickup
Are you tired of driving around looking like everyone else? If so, a homebrew, Crosley-based truck might be just the ticket! This is rumored to have everything necessary to be street legal, and there is an old inspection sticker on one window; so there could be hope. That being said, the single-cylinder lawnmower engine isn’t…

A Jeep is just too large
The Crofton Bug was a mini-Jeep based on the prior Crosley Farm-O-Road and featuring a Crosley engine. These only offered two-wheel drive, but had dual transmissions to gear them down for slippery conditions. One recently crossed the block at auction and Hemmings has a very recent (pre-auction) article on that one. This is a running,…

Pre-War (Barely) Crosley
We’ve posted a few Crosleys over the years, but this is the first time we’ve seen a pre-war Crosley for sale. The Crosley was designed to be the most affordable four-wheeled transportation available, and it shows. What that means today is these are cool little microcars for weekend drives (though perhaps not on the freeway).…

Microcar and Wagon Rolled into One!
Microcars are just plain cool. Some day, I’ll squeeze one into the garage – it’s just a question of when and what. Something like this little Crosley Station Wagon could do nicely. This example, however, might be a bit more of a project than I want. That being said, this appears to be a fully…

Cool Little Crosley
I suppose all Crosleys are small. Oh well, you get the point. In truth, this Super Deluxe borders on luxurious compared to the Crosley sports cars. Like 79.45775% of the ads out there, this one mentions the car being a “barn find.” This could be legit, though, as this one appears to have been stored…
