  • Land Crewser: The Custom Crew Cab Land Cruiser Project

    Land Crewser: The Custom Crew Cab Land Cruiser Project

    Do you love FJs, but want more doors? Well, someone else did, but didn’t complete the project, so we’re left with some work done and a lot left. Are you brave enough to take this one on?

  • 1976 Lotus Eclat Project

    1976 Lotus Eclat Project

    We’ve always been intrigued by these 70s Lotus Elite and Eclat (sometimes called the Lotus Eclair).  These front-engine oddballs were large for Lotus, but still used the “just add lightness” formula and were known as excellent handlers.  The Elite, with its shooting brake body type, is more the oddball, while this Eclat has a coupe…

  • FREE Abandoned Vanagon Pickup Conversion Project

    FREE Abandoned Vanagon Pickup Conversion Project

    Well, it’s free if you never want to register it. Should you choose to do so in California, you’ll owe $665 in back registration fees.  Still, this looks like a parts van to us, but some ambitious individual might try to finish it as a truck… We love the ad text (below), as the seller…

  • Save this Falcon Ranchero Project!

    Save this Falcon Ranchero Project!

    Falcon Rancheros are just plain cool!  Although the Mustang was based on an updated 1964 Falcon, many parts still fit, which means you can do just about anything with one of these little trucklets.  These didn’t come with a V8 until 1963, but they easily accept one. The owner of this one has done some…

  • A Crosley Incomplete Project Two-Fer

    A Crosley Incomplete Project Two-Fer

    This two-fer will result in one working car, at best, and even that will take some time.  Hopefully, the right buyer comes along to make something really nice out of these.  They deserve it! This two-fer includes one 1950 Hot Shot and one 1951 Super Shot.  These were very closely related; so most parts are…

  • Isetta / VW Combo Project

    Isetta / VW Combo Project

    The last time we broke a story on a modified Isetta, it made the rounds on all of the major online car sites.  We’re not sure that will happen this time… It’s not that today’s feature isn’t interesting, it’s that it’s very much an incomplete project and the seller has only included two images.  Apparently,…

  • Dually Rat Rod with or without Engine

    Dually Rat Rod with or without Engine

    Ah yes, the “Rat Rod” concept.  It seems it can be used to describe just about anything rusty and incomplete, but we’ll venture to say that this is pretty close to the original intent. This is based on a 1926 Model T and a 1958 Dodge dual-axle truck.  It looks like the basic structure is…

  • Quickie: Datsun 411 Wagon Roller on Top of a Shipping Container

    Quickie: Datsun 411 Wagon Roller on Top of a Shipping Container

    We don’t know how this car got on top of this container nor why. If the body and glass truly are in good shape, this could be a deal at $500 or so.  We’re not sure Lemons rules allow a rolling shell at $500, but this shouldn’t be smashed to bits on a track, anyway.…

  • Dumped 4-Runner Project

    Dumped 4-Runner Project

    Like yesterday’s Cutlass lowrider, this is an incomplete project based on a terrible idea.  Is it too late to save it? Let’s try to figure out just what we have here.  It’s a ’92 4Runner on hydraulics, it has no engine or trans, it comes with a right-hand drive dash and steering box (not installed)…

  • A Cutlass That’s Not Cut-less

    A Cutlass That’s Not Cut-less

    Yes, this Cutlass was cut.  Olds never offered a convertible version of this generation of Cutlass.  As a matter of fact, this entire generation of A- and G-Body never had a factory convertible.  That didn’t stop someone from chopping this one as part of a lowrider project that never got off – or on? –…
