  • A True Minivan: The Cushman Vanster

    A True Minivan: The Cushman Vanster

    Okay, so it’s really a microvan. Anywho, if you don’t know Cushman, you probably haven’t paid much attention to the meter maid parking enforcement vehicles used in urban centers. These are sometimes road legal and are generally represent minimalist transporation, sometimes inside industrial facilities. Today’s feature vehicle is a Cushman of the four-wheel variety (some…

    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.

  • Mid-Engine, Manually-Shifted Van: 1991 Previa

    Mid-Engine, Manually-Shifted Van: 1991 Previa

    Sure, it looks like an egg, but we respect the Previa. What other minivan has offered a mid-engine layout, manual trans, supercharger and all-wheel drive? Sadly, one couldn’t combine all of these concepts, as it seems all supercharged Previas were of the automatic, rear-wheel drive variety.  Today’s feature is a rare one with its five-speed…

  • Factory Supercharged Subaru Sambar Posing as VW

    Factory Supercharged Subaru Sambar Posing as VW

    Once upon a time, a Subaru 360-based Sambar van was sold in the US market. This is the fifth generation, which was produced from 1990 to 1998 and was never sold here.  The VW appearance it cute and all, but we’d prefer this just be a proud Subie.  Surely nothing has been done that can’t…

  • Good Morning, Vietnam-Style Citroen Truckette

    Good Morning, Vietnam-Style Citroen Truckette

    Just picture this in blue with Tuan (AKA Phan Đức Tô) stealing it with eggs falling out the back.  You get the picture… This is basically a 2CV with a small van body on the rear and these were in production and in use for many years.  This is hard to beat from a coolness perspective,…

  • All for Naut?  Nautica, that is…

    All for Naut? Nautica, that is…

    Co-branded cars sometimes make sense, but it’s clear that the buying public never really “got” the Mercury Villager Nautica special edition.  These were around for a few years and with a couple color schemes, all involving blue and white with a yellow stripe (of course!).  We here at Oddimotive HQ really like white wheels, which…

  • Astroghini: The Lambo Van

    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…

  • The Warrior – A Delightful Combination of Hideous and Creepy

    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…

  • Factory Turbocharged, Manual Minivan

    Factory Turbocharged, Manual Minivan

    Who could have offered such a beast?  Plymouth, of course! The seller claims this is a two-owner car and has had recent mid-level service and some hidden upgrades.  If it is truly as good as described, this could be a pretty awesome family hauler!  The 2.5-liter turbocharged four put out 150HP and 180 lb-ft in…
