    Post Twin-Stick: Dodge Colt Turbo

    We love the early-to-mid-80s twin-stick Dodge Colt GTS Turbo and we like these later cars, too, even though they does lack the transmission weirdness.  Each offers Mitsubishi-sourced, domestic-badged hot hatch goodness. This car appears to be in decent enough shape, except for the bashed-in hatch and faded paint.  We’d hope that a hatch wouldn’t be…

  • Rampage!  No, not the video game…

    Rampage! No, not the video game…

    We once featured a Plymouth Scamp here, but we’ve never featured its higher volume twin, the Dodge Rampage.  Maybe we were just waiting for one with the exciting Prospector Package and shitty paint. In truth, it looks like it’s largely prepped for paint and the current owner has taken care of it.  Good news is…

  • Bring a black light!  (Van content)

    Bring a black light! (Van content)

    Where to begin with this?  This van appears to have it all – ugly custom paint, textured shag carpet, wood paneling, bar, fridge, accessory AC and plaid on the seats AND headliner.  It’s also being sold by a charity, so this is for a good cause!  It truth, this vehicle may stand as proof that…

  • The fastest sedan made in America

    The fastest sedan made in America

    Well, at the time, it was, as the ads proudly proclaimed.  Most remember the original Taurus SHO and its ability to shock most vehicles sold at the time.  For model years 1991 and 1992, however, the SHO was not the quickest domestic sedan.  That honor belonged to the Dodge Spirit R/T. This beast of a…

    Gelandejetero

    Here we have a seller with a sense of humor,or at least we hope so.  Some of you may remember that the Dodge Raider was a two-door Mitsubishi Montero (Pajero to the rest of the world), but when’s the last time you saw one, or even thought of one? The seller of this beauty provides…

  • K-Car retro-rod

    K-Car retro-rod

    We’ve featured more than one 90s Thunderbird retro-rod and recently showed a 90s Camaro-based 57 Chevy wannabe.  Finally, we have a Mopar example, this one based on, of all things, a Dodge 600 convertible, which may well be the boxiest of K-cars, possibly of all cars. Of all the weirdo retro-rods we’ve features, this one…

  • Steet legal bumper car?

    Steet legal bumper car?

    We’ve featured a few MitsuDodge Colts/Mirages, but none quite like this.  Hopefully, there is nothing else quite like this. We could say a lot here, but the only relevant question is whether any owner will find someone else with whom to play. Click for eBay ad St. George, UT $1,000 with ZERO bids and reserve…

  • Take your pick:  Two Mark Cross edition LeBaron convertibles (plus a bonus Dodge 600).

    Take your pick: Two Mark Cross edition LeBaron convertibles (plus a bonus Dodge 600).

    Perhaps Chrysler envied AMC’s co-branded special editions of the seventies.  That could explain the Chrysler LeBaron Mark Cross edition.  One might even suggest that they envied AMC so much that they bought what was left of the company five years later.  These early LeBarons offer pure K-car squareness lost in the later models. Interestingly, two…

  • 1973 Dodge Colt – anything unusual here?

    1973 Dodge Colt – anything unusual here?

    Here we have a MitsuDodge Colt, one of the first of many 70s imports to be sold in the US under a domestic name. The owner swapped in a Mazda 12A rotary, which is certainly interesting.  Some other decisions made in the fix-up process are rather interesting.  The Transformers decal is obvious in the photos,…
