Seeking the Holy Grail? Why W8? Act now!
Act now, as the Grail has been found! We hereby present a Passat W8 wagon with manual transmission. These are rare in any condition, but this one claims under 42,000 miles and appears to be in superb condition. A low-mile, AWD, V8 wagon with manual trans? Yes, indeed – it doesn’t get much better. Even…

4WD Wagon FTW!
No, Ford never built ’em like this. This is a custom job involving a 1972 Gran Torino County Squire and something else. The seller claims this has a recently rebuilt 351 Cleveland with “special cam headers and carburetor.” The one engine shot shows no carb, so we’re not sure what to think of that. Presumably,…

Accord Wagon Manual!
Don’t get too excited, this rare beast isn’t exactly stock. This was a display car for an audio shop that no longer exists. So, beyond the obvious exterior mods, it has a crazy multimedia system with ten subwoofers, claimed 3300 watts and multiple screens. It’s also fitted with air suspension, upgraded brakes, intake and exhaust.…

Mercury Cougar Wagon – Yes, Really!
Most people know the Mercury Cougar as a version of the Ford Mustang (1967-1973) or the Ford Thunderbird (1974-1997), although youngsters may only remember the hatchback Cougar, based on the Mondeo platform. What many forget is that the 1977 through 1979 model year Cougar offered a full lineup with two-door, four-door sedan and wagon all…

The Real GLC was a Mazda, not a Mercedes
Mercedes decided that GLC was such a great name that they are stealing it from Mazda! It was, after all, a Great Little Car! Today’s feature car is not just any GLC – it’s a wagon version with manual trans. Basically, this is a 33-year-old Mazda with 140K miles, which means it may only barely…

Manual, 4WD Sentra Wagon!
Yes, this wagon has a selectable transfer case, so it has four-wheel drive, rather than all-wheel drive. At the end of the day, it’s an Oddimotive dream, either way, as it has also been turbocharged! This is an original AWD Sentra wagon, but the engine was swapped for a 1991-1994 GA16DE 1.6L and then a…

Hemi Wagon With Manual Trans – Not What You Think
No, it’s not a late model Dodge Magnum, it’s a 1956 DeSoto Wagon. This features the “Firedome” engine, which was DeSoto’s version of the corporate Chrysler Hemi. Given it’s a 1956 model, this should be a 330 CID (5.4L) version with about 230 horsepower and plenty ‘o torque – maybe even enough to move this…

Eckler’s 1969 Corvette Shooting Brake
Here we have an incomplete 1969 Corvette Sport Wagon shooting brake project. According to the seller, this is a relatively low mileage Vette. A previous owner started the project in the 70s and passed away before it was completed. The car then went into storage for 30 years or so. There were a few kits…
