A Duster Worth Saving
Although the muscle car era had peaked as of about 1971, there were interesting offerings around for several years afterward. This 360/4-speed Duster is among them and is worth saving despite apparent terrible condition. The Duster was Plymouth’s semi-sporty compact offering and was closely related to the Dodge Dart. Much like the Chevy Nova and…

Neglected Gem? 1991 Dodge Spirit R/T
We’ve posted a nice Spirit R/T before, but this isn’t that. Still, these are rare and were fast and fun cars when new. Can this be saved? This looks like it’s lived outside in the desert for far too long, but is the damage all cosmetic? Unfortunately, the seller gives essentially no details, nor an…

Pre-Costanza Mopar Woodgrain: ’78 Town and Country
Unlike the famous-due-to-Seinfeld woodgrain LeBaron, this ’78 Town and Country offers genuine rear-wheel drive and a V8. Okay, it’s a 70s 318 and likely offers frighteningly low horsepower, but probably has decent enough torque and, let’s be honest, this thing isn’t likely going racing, anyway. The seller claims 76K original miles and, despite so-so photos,…

Can opener classic: Custom 1982 Dodge Charger Convertible
Chrylser never offered a factory Dodge Charger convertible, but some were apparently converted by Coach Conversions in Van Nuys, CA. The seller of this beast claims only three red ones were done – were there 4,000 in other colors? We doubt it… We found this on our local Craigslist, but quick research while writing this…

Cool Sleeper: 1970 Plymouth Valiant
While it’s not a big-block car, we think this car has massive sleeper potential. The 318/3-speed combo likely provides pretty good fun already, but could easily be modified while maintaining the stealth factor. Given this is a sedan, you can also rest assured it will never be particularly collectible, meaning you’re not modifying something that…

Small Turbo Mopar, 17 Years Later
Many scoff at the Dodge Neon, but those in the know realize it was a competitive autocross car in the 90s, known for tossable handling and a spritely DOHC I4. The ACR was the ultimate 90s Neon, as no turbocharged version of the first generation was ever available. Dodge corrected that with the SRT-4, which…

Speaking of Dodge SUVs, here’s a Shelby SP360!
We’ve posted one of these before, but these Shelby SP360 Durangos are rare finds and this one is in the same town as Oddimotive HQ. The price is high, but the miles are low…good thing I have no toy car budget at this point! Short reminder: Kenne Bell Supercharged 5.9L V8 (360 CID and 360…

Claimed Shelby Museum CSX-T
We’ve featured a Shelby CSX before, but it was in fairly poor condition. This one claims 48K miles and museum history. The condition certainly appears to be excellent, including original wheels and interior. These make cool little sleepers with their 2.2L turbo I4 engines. The previous car had a plaque indicating it was a Thrifty rental,…
