Homebrew I-Mark turbo diesel
We’ve featured an I-Mark diesel before, but this one has some sort of turbo added on. This might sounds interesting, but the seller provides no useful information about the modifications, nor any useful pictures. Quick research revealed the seller’s Cardomain page. There we found a picture of a scary turbo setup hanging below the car.…

Stereo worth more than car?
There’s not a good angle on this one, yet I feel a (slight) urge to help it. Click for Craigslist ad $1,200 (yeah…right) Ahaheim, CA Did a bear bite the bumper corner off? Excellent bondo work here with ‘new’ rust poking through. Pink leopard. Yeah… Maybe the bear got trapped back here? Note the ‘custom…

Rover SD-1in Irvine
These are rare in the US and likely rare in one piece anywhere. Top Gear made this famous for losing its door on a marketability course. RWD + V8 + hatchback + manual trans = What’s not to love? Well, try reliability… This should be a true labor of love for someone out there. Your humble host saw…

Temptation: Honey Bee!
What is it about these? The rumor inside Nissan is that there was an order problem and they had too many base B210s, so someone came up with a catchy decal package “special edition” to try to move them more quickly. Whatever happened, the result was just plain cool in a humble, B210 way. These…

3000GT $$$pyder
Here we have an ill-timed product of the last time Japan had major currency concerns. As with so many others, this was done by ASC in the US. Interestingly, this was credited as the first retractable hardtop since the Ford Fairline Skyliner of the late 50s, given that it preceded the Mercedes SLK. Due to a price…

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…

Creepy buggy
This is a cool buggy and the McDonald’s tie in has some potential, even if we don’t really get it. Ultimately, though, the seller’s Ronald McDonald mannequin is creepy as all hell. Click for eBay ad Huntington Beach, CA $4,800 with ZERO bids and $10,200 BIN price Ad text: Up for sale from my personal…

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…

Yugo GVX out to pasture
If you’re a driving enthusiast and you want a Yugo, this is the model to get! Ad says automatic, but we see a manual shift lever. That being said, this likely isn’t the car to get. We get the impression they mowed the grass for the first time in 15 years and thus discovered this…
