Why Doesn’t YOUR Automatic, V6 Accord Have Fairies?
Today’s feature is mind boggling. This is a 1992 Honda Accord with lambo-style scissor doors, 20-inch rimz and a number of other poor choices. The owner claims this car has 158K miles and seven TVs. Do you need more info? Maybe you do: The “car club” associated with this vehicle has a MySpace page! It…

HHR SS Panel, but not one you want…
Here we have a Chevy HHR SS Panel, which, in and of itself, is an intriguing vehicle. This one, however, has hydraulics and 20-inch spinners, along with a flame job with burning money. You’ll have to decide whether that is desirable in your world. In stock form, the HHR SS could hit 60mph in about…

Confused Van Project
Is this a Ford? Yes. Is it a Dodge? Yep. It seems this is a 1962 Ford Van body on a Dodge frame of some sort. Based on track width, this might be on a shortened military chassis. Regardless, the dually van look is, well, interesting. Click for Craigslist ad Lake Forest, CA (Oddimotive HQ!)…

WTT Means What the Truck?!
This really defines the WTF label here on Oddimotive. So, there’s a Chevy S-10 in there, which is evident in the greenhouse, but not its location vs. other typically fixed points in the vehicle structure. Note that this is NOT a six-wheeler – that is a side-mounted spare, in the style of 1920s and 30s…

Cowboy Pride?
This could be the worst idea for an Oklahoma State fan – a chopped 1984 Cadillac with a 1990 front clip on correct white and orange. Note the wire wheels – likely Daytons – and you’ll realize this was someone’s 1990s dream. The seller provides a decent description of this car, but I don’t understand…

A Hooptie I-Mark Turbo? Yes, really.
It’s not like Isuzu I-Marks come along every day in 2014, not to mention turbos. It’s too bad that this is the one that came along, but how could I not post it? Based on the ad text, the seller did not have anything to do with the modifications. Given the car is in Lompoc,…

From the Hooptie Files: 93 Cadillac Fleetwood
We remember when hoopties rolling on Daytons were common sights. We assume the drivers and the cars eventually tired of this abuse and that’s why they went out of style. Every now and then, however, one pops us. This is a prime example and gets bonus points for being built on the Cadillac Fleetwood, which…

Reader sighting: Slammed Exploder
One hand on the wheel, child in front seat, two-door Explorer (which makes it a SPORT!) bagged and dropped – what could possibly go wrong?

Holy Crap
This speaks for itself (click for more). Click for Craigslist ad $21,000 OBO Ventura, CA Hideous, eh? Well, just wait… Yes, it gets worse – lambo doors, f’d up hood, etc. Good Lord Is that a coaxial speaker in the rear center? What on earth does that do, acoustically speaking? Ad text: Iam selling my…
