Almost Famous: Rexona Ad Drag Mustang
We first saw this and imagined it was someone’s idea of a cool custom. Thankfully, this was custom-built for a Rexona deodorant ad. The seller claims this can be converted back to a street car. We’re not sure; but maybe it can if all VIN plates, etc. are present. The hard part might be passing…

1976 Torino Elite Donk
What’s not to love about a ’76 Torino rollin’ on 26s? Well, the ride quality, the lack of stability, the possible stress on the prop shaft, inability to cheaply replace suspension parts and more. Still, these are all about style and someone thought this was worth building. Is it worth buying? This thing is powered…

Just a Marquis?
From time to time, shorty cars pop up based on various platforms. Today’s feature started life as a Mercury Grand Marquis sedan, which means a lot of shortening took place. Don’t bother to ask why. We suppose the end result is just a Marquis. In this case, the ad text is almost as amusing as…

“DragonSlayer” Mitsubishi Eclipse
Are lambo doors, murals and other poor choices missing from your life? If so, maybe you need “The Dragonslayer.” This is pitched as a “show car”, as these types of things always are. Underneath, it’s a four cylinder, automatic Eclipse from the least enthusiast-friendly generation. The only mechanical bright spot is the supercharger, but the…

S14 240SX Pickup Conversion
Here’s one we’ve never seen. Not only was this S14 240SX converted into a pickup, but it has a serious lift and massive, off-road tires. The seller claims this can do highway speeds and that everything works except the power windows. Normally, we’d worry about driveline bits, but this car is easy to update with…

Misspelled and Misguided: 300ZX “Scorpian”
The “Z32” 300ZX is a wonderfully and cleanly styled vehicle. It’s too bad some can’t leave them alone. The two bits of good news here are stock wheels and manual shifter. The seller provides mileage, but no other information on condition. Also, there are no interior shots, so we can’t comment on overall condition, even…

“Hot Rod” Made from 1993 Crown Victoria
This was the “Special Construction” class winner in the 2011 One Lap of America! Of course, we don’t know whether it had any competition in the class… The seller proudly points out that this is an all-steel custom, with no fiberglass used. As a result, it also has no curves whatsoever. Supposedly, the engine was…

Deminsia Custom out of Florida
Want something truly different? Try this custom, which is, oddly, called the Deminsia. Maybe that’s because it forgot which end was the front. This custom was built by The Car Factory in Micco, Florida. It does seem to be well executed; so, if you’re into the style, maybe this is for you. The price is…

765 RWHP, 6MT Dodge Challenger with Gullwing Rear Doors
Straight out of Florida comes this beast built my a limo company. We suppose converting a Charger (i.e. starting with a four door) would have been too easy. This one started as a two-door and was extended, at least as far as we can tell. Because stretching a two-door Pony car into a limo wasn’t…

Corvette Down: Poorly Modified C3
Though this looks like a really bad Fiero custom from some angles, most will notice quickly that it’s not a mid-engine car. Under this is a 1977 Corvette (AKA C3), which one can see in the roof line. The seller claims this has some relation to Hendrick Motorsports, which, among other things, is a NASCAR…
