  • Toyota “Solarup”

    Toyota “Solarup”

    This is just the type of vehicle to wake Oddimotive up from a slumber that’s been a bit too long. Here we have a Solara Convertible – the more reliable alternative to a Chrysler Sebring Convertible – which has had part of a Ford Explorer Sport Trac grafted onto its rear. We went with Solarup…

  • Awesomely Terrible 1977 Pinto Roadster Conversion

    Awesomely Terrible 1977 Pinto Roadster Conversion

    This one is awesomely terrible and terribly awesome and truly among the Oddimotive greats! Not only is it a chopped Pinto, but the rear hatch glass was used as a trunk lid. We imagine it’s not very waterproof, but who cares when it’s this weird?

  • 1940  Ford Coupe with Lincoln Mark VII Underpinnings

    1940 Ford Coupe with Lincoln Mark VII Underpinnings

    Have you ever looked at a 1940 Ford and a 1980s Mark VII LSC and wondered what would happen if they got friendly? Well, now you know. In this case, the one who decided to answer the question with a lot of custom work also decided that the Mark VII interior just wasn’t purple enough.…

  • Custom, Miniature Peterbilt on Ford F250 Chassis

    Custom, Miniature Peterbilt on Ford F250 Chassis

    This isn’t the first wanna-be semi truck we’ve featured, but it’s the best. The quality of the work appears to be excellent here. So, if you only need an F250’s capability, but you want a big rig, this could be just the ticket!

  • 1961 Thunderbird Pickup Conversion

    1961 Thunderbird Pickup Conversion

    Prior to February of 2018, we had featured precisely zero heavily customized 1960s Thunderbirds. That changed on February 9, when we published the Big Block Shorty, and now we have a 1961 T-Bird made into a pickup.

  • Big Block Shorty: 1966 Thunderbird

    Big Block Shorty: 1966 Thunderbird

    We are endlessly fascinated with the custom “shorty” cars, and this T-Bird is really something special – love it or hate it – though some serious work remains.

  • Reader Submission: Shorty Ford Fiesta

    Reader Submission: Shorty Ford Fiesta

    Here we have what appears to be a dramatically shortened Ford Fiesta. From what we can tell, a sedan front was combined with a hatch rear, yielding homemade three-door. If not that then maybe just the front valence from a sedan was used? What YOU think??

  • Homebrew 1913 Stutz “Replica”

    Homebrew 1913 Stutz “Replica”

    Replica implies a certain amount of accuracy in reproduction; so perhaps we’ll consider this more of a tribute. Either way, someone took a 1964 Ford pickup and made something that looks somewhat like a 1910s-era racer.

  • Gold Dust V8-Powered Trike

    Gold Dust V8-Powered Trike

    Here we have an old-school trike running a Ford 302 (4.9L) V8 and C4 three-speed automatic trans.  The seller provides shockingly little info,but does point out that it has a crushed velvet interior. What else do you really need to know?

  • Ford Fairmont Wagon with 3MT

    Ford Fairmont Wagon with 3MT

    We guess this is a Mexico specification not offered in the US: a 1983 Ford Fairmont with a floor-mounted, three-speed manual transmission!
