1967 Datsun Roadster 7-fer
We’ve featured several two-fers and a few three-fers, but this is our first seven-fer. It’s also located about one hour east of my home town AND involved brown! The buyer of this lot gets seven roadsters, including two nice, complete cars, two closer to parts car status and three in between. A bunch of additional…

Shortened Shoebox: Shortbox?
Shoebox is a term often used to refer to the 1949 through 1950 Fords – particularly the sedans. Today’s feature started life as a 1949 Sedan and is now a shortened roadster. That’s not necessarily a good thing. The seller states that this Ford was shortened, and that’s an understatement. It was not only radically…

359: The Porsche that Never Was
The seller is this oddity says it’s a rare Porsche 359. Considering that’s not a Porsche, that means this is some sort of kit car – in this case with some Speedster and some 959 styling cues. We assume this is based on a VW, as the seller says it’s a 1971 model and it…

One-Off (?) Porsche 928 Spyder
Apparently, someone made a race car out of a 928 and someone else tried to make a production car based on its general design. That’s where spyderwerks comes in, but it’s not clear how many of these might have actually been built nor exactly when this came to be. The end result of whatever happened…

Seller: “I Don’t What This Is, But I Know What It’s Worth”
The seller here has no idea what this is, but that he or she knows it’s worth more than offers received to date. How did the seller end up with a mystery, you ask? “I bought the property the vehicle came with it in the backyard.” What do you think this is? The seller rambles,…

WTF S2K
Briefly, I was surprised that we’ve never featured a Honda S2000; but then I thought about it and there usually nothing odd about them. They’re just great, pure sports cars. This one, however, first had a hideous body kit installed and then was wrecked. A quick interwebs search showed what the body kit looked like…

Rarely Seen Triumph TR8
I saw one of these on the road not too long ago, so was glad to see this ad come along. Triumph launched the TR7 in 1974 as the successor to the now-iconic TR6. This was a major change, including a move from purely 60s styling to then-modern, 70s wedge styling. This car has, at…

Gaudy, Modified E-Type for ONLY $100K+
Supposedly, this started life as a 1967 E-Type, which means it was a highly desirable Series 1 car. Unfortunately, none of the characteristics that make it a Series I (covered lamps with original-style front and rear lights and spinners on the knock-off hubs) remain unscathed, as this car has been extensively modified. As matter of…
