Triumph Spitfire / C4 Corvette Hybrid
What happens when you put C4 Corvette (the seller says “1983 Corvette”, but there’s no such thing) on a Triumph Spitfire mid-section? Probably a lot of flex, but you also get this feature car. The seller says this project is ready to be assembled, but the whopping two pictures included in the ad don’t show…

Recent Oddimobile Sightings – January 10, 2016
What with holidays and CES, Oddimotive (almost a one-man show) has been slow. Fear not, however, as we’re back on a schedule! Also, slow on posts doesn’t mean slow on sightings… Let’s get started… Let’s start with a lovely, almost Grabber Blue Festiva spotted at Malibu Creek State Park. Surely this fits right in driving…

Part 1999 Chevy Tracker, Part Plane
It’s an age old question: what happens when a Cirrus SR22 light aircraft and a 1999 Chevy Tracker are combined? Here we have the answer. The reserve was not met on this auction, but the phone number of the seller is available as long as eBay keeps the listing around; so a deal can be…

1989 Chevy Van With Ferris Wheel Seating
If you had an extra van and some Ferris wheel seats, you’d do the same. The seller is wise enough not to claim it’s a good idea to ride in the rear seats at highway speeds; so don’t get any idea. What would YOU do with this oddity? Click for eBay ad Lohman, MO, USA…

Paint job worth more than car? 1985 Chevy Sprint
Sadly, this is not the cool little Sprint Turbo – this is a plain-Jane Suzuki Switft wrapped in Chevy badges. What’s interesting about it is that is has a rather non-shitbox paint job. Okay, it’s not amazing, but it calls attention to itself, which is something base model Sprints don’t usually do. Would you drive…

Astroghini: The Lambo Van
It seems this van was once on a TV show – funny how quickly we all forget. Anyway, it’s an Astro minivan made to look sorta-kinda like a Lamborghini and with very few functional doors. The seller says this needs to be trailered home, but it’s not clear whether that’s just because it has no…

1976 Monte Royce
Okay, it’s not called a Monte Royce, but this is a “Custom Cloud”, which is a Rolls Royce wanna-be based on a 1976 Chevy Monte Carlo – convertible, in this case. The Custom Cloud was a strange project in the 70s, with the owner supposedly patenting Rolls’ grill design in the US, as Rolls had…

The Warrior – A Delightful Combination of Hideous and Creepy
What do you get when you add murals, mods, tufting, custom cabinets, a Vista Cruiser roof and far too many LED lights to an Astro van? This – THE WARRIOR! The seller is both the 4th and 2nd owner of this van. Apparently, he sold it and then traded something to get it back. Somewhere…

Convertible Chevy Dually with 454
Structural rigidity? What’s that? This Chevy dually has had its roof chopped entirely off and its windsheild chopped, as well. No roll bar was added for support, so this much have ‘interesting handling. The only good news is it’s body on frame, so, in truth, it’s less of a handling problem than an overall rigidity…

2012 Camaro on 32s (DubTwelves?)
Doesn’t the title say it all? We’re just amazed this has been bid up to almost $25K. Click for eBay ad Miami, FL, USA (of course!) $24,600 with 26 bids, no reserve and half a day to go No, it’s not photoshopped. Again… These guys don’t look very happy. How about a sideways picture of…
