  • L28 Powered 1955 Rambler Wagon

    L28 Powered 1955 Rambler Wagon

    Here’s an odd swap: A 1955 Nash Rambler wagon with a Nissan/Datsun L28 inline six. While the combination of brands is genuinely odd, this Nash would have had an I6 from the factory; so we assume this was a relatively easy fit.  Good news is this L28 should put out nearly twice the power of…

  • Z21: The Zombie Truck

    Z21: The Zombie Truck

    Yes, it’s called a D21; but we’re referring to this oddity as the Z21 due to its zombie theme. The zombie theme consists of a mural on both sides and the tailgate.  For some reason, brass knuckle decals are also featured in several places.  Do brass knuckles even work on zombies? The seller claims there’s…

  • Rare Datsun 1200 Two-Door Wagon

    Rare Datsun 1200 Two-Door Wagon

    Nissan positioned this V320 as a small van, and it is closely related to its trucks of the time; but we see it as a small wagon.  Either way, it’s damn cool and has massive potential. This example needs a lot of help, both cosmetically and mechanically, but the good news is that it appears…

  • S14 240SX Pickup Conversion

    S14 240SX Pickup Conversion

    Here’s one we’ve never seen.  Not only was this S14 240SX converted into a pickup, but it has a serious lift and massive, off-road tires. The seller claims this can do highway speeds and that everything works except the power windows.  Normally, we’d worry about driveline bits, but this car is easy to update with…

  • Stroll into Burning Man in a Giant Chuck Taylor

    Stroll into Burning Man in a Giant Chuck Taylor

    This is an art car, but part of this ad is the idea that this gets you nearly-guaranteed entry into Burning Man.  If that’s your thing, this is an interesting way to do it. The seller provides a pretty good amount of info and it appears one can live in this combination of car and…

  • A Skyline Granting Safe Passage?

    A Skyline Granting Safe Passage?

    Here’s a rarely seen Nissan Skyline Passage GT with a 2.0-liter, turbocharged inline six.  Sounds perfect, right?  The only catch here is that it is equipped with an automatic transmission.  Still, this is highly unusual and the auto will help keep it on boost.  With that, this should make a great cruiser! The R31 Skyline…

  • Misspelled and Misguided: 300ZX “Scorpian”

    Misspelled and Misguided: 300ZX “Scorpian”

    The “Z32” 300ZX is a wonderfully and cleanly styled vehicle.  It’s too bad some can’t leave them alone.  The two bits of good news here are stock wheels and manual shifter.  The seller provides mileage, but no other information on condition.  Also, there are no interior shots, so we can’t comment on overall condition, even…

  • Homemade Nissan Sentra Cabriolet

    Homemade Nissan Sentra Cabriolet

    What could make a 1997 Nissan Sentra an Oddimobile?  We suggest that a can opener could do it. This is a 220K mile Sentra, which means the book value is nearly zero; but the owner removed the roof at some point.  Is that better or worse?  The asking price is $500, which is right at…

  • NisoFiniti TX56?

    NisoFiniti TX56?

    Apparently, someone loved the idea behind the Lincoln Blackwood so much that they decided to create the Nissan/Infiniti version. The seller calls is a NisoFiniti.  We think it might be called the TX56.  Given the large number of shared parts between QX (this was when only one Infiniti was called QX) and Titan, this conversion…

  • 1967 Nissan Patrol Project

    1967 Nissan Patrol Project

    You won’t likely find another remotely complete Nissan Patrol for under $3K, but it’s also not clear exactly that this one needs. According to the seller, this was a project about to be painted, but work stopped and it’s been sitting for years.  We don’t doubt any of that.  What’s not at all clear is…
