  • The Train Truck

    The Train Truck

    Beneath this moderately convincing steam train is a Chevy 1-ton truck chassis powered by a good ‘ol 350. As one can imagine, this was used for parades in the past. What will you do with it?

  • Rat Rod 1954 Studebaker 3R5 on 1979 Chevy Dually Frame

    Rat Rod 1954 Studebaker 3R5 on 1979 Chevy Dually Frame

    Are you nostalgic for Studebaker pickups, but they just aren’t quite long enough for you? Try this homemade oddity on for size!

  • Fallout Fans, Here’s Your Chevy Astro Evacuation Vehicle!

    Fallout Fans, Here’s Your Chevy Astro Evacuation Vehicle!

    If you’re a huge fan of the Fallout video game series, this is the Chevy Astro for you. If not, well, it’s just an interesting midi-van.

  • Open-Top S10 Blazer with SBC Swap!

    Open-Top S10 Blazer with SBC Swap!

    Anyone who knows 80s cars knows Chevy never made a convertible S10 Blazer, so this is a custom job, but it does look like it was meant to be. The V8 swap solves the extreme slowness problem these had, but we worry that the lack of a proper top means you’re screwed if you take…

  • Hideously Modified Corvair Greenbrier Van

    We’re big fans of the Corvair – especially the less common body types, which means we usually love the Greenbrier van. This one has some unfortunate modifications, but might be salvageable at the right price.

  • Amazingly 70s Custom Corvette

    This might just be the most 70s Vette ever – at least among those NOT used in Corvette Summer with Mark Hamill.

  • Dismantling a 1986 Corvette Yields a Unique Hot Rod

    Dismantling a 1986 Corvette Yields a Unique Hot Rod

    Here we have an interesting idea. The owner apparently had T-bucket hot rods before and noted (correctly) that they’re not really long-distance cars. We don’t know how, but he ended up with a 1986 Corvette and proceeded to remove most of the body panels, then construct a Model T-type “trunk” and add an old school…

  • “Stoopid” 1990 S10 Blazer with Supercharged SBC Swap and Too Much Yellow

    “Stoopid” 1990 S10 Blazer with Supercharged SBC Swap and Too Much Yellow

    This is not subtle, not understated; but we like the swap. Can it be saved? Someone put a lot of time and money into this truck and the work looks to have been well done.  We wonder what it would cost to change this to more of a sleeper look in black or another dark…

  • MonzaMino!

    MonzaMino!

    Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like: the Vega-based Monza made into a cruck. This seems to be a well done conversion and actually preserved a bit of storage space behind the front seats. Strip away the pickupness and this is a 103K-mile Monza with six cylinder and automatic.  None of that is exciting, but…

  • Shortened Corvair Hot Rod

    Shortened Corvair Hot Rod

    The title pretty much says it all! Yes, this is a hot rod/rat rod built on a Corvair platform and which has been greatly shortened.  What’s left of the car shouldn’t weigh much; so the Corvair flat six should move this pretty well.
