  • Awesomely Bad, Africa-Themed 70s Van

    Awesomely Bad, Africa-Themed 70s Van

    Lots of 70s van had murals, but we’ve never seen one with an Egyptian/northern Africa theme quite like this.  Also, we rarely see murals in such good condition. The seller claims this is one of few modified by Dodge; but we have no reason to believe this wasn’t a dealer- or owner-commissioned custom.  That was…

  • Beautiful Brown Citroen HY Van

    Beautiful Brown Citroen HY Van

    This awesome example of post-war French styling is fittingly for sale in Roswell, New Mexico. As was often the case with post-war European vehicles, this H van had a very long life cycle.  Given it’s a commercial vehicle, this one pushed the limits with production from from 1947 to 1981.  The original design used a…

  • 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…

  • Childhood Dream: A-Team Van Replica

    Childhood Dream: A-Team Van Replica

    If you’re they type of early 80s TV fan who knows what “B.A.” means when it precedes Baracus, then this might be the find for you! We’ve never previously seen a truly accurate A-Team van and it looks like this is a great one.  The seller provides a lot of information in the text below;…

  • Recent Oddimobile Sightings – January 10, 2016

    Recent Oddimobile Sightings – January 10, 2016

    What with holidays and CES, Oddimotive (almost a one-man show) has been slow.  Fear not, however, as we’re back on a schedule!  Also, slow on posts doesn’t mean slow on sightings… Let’s get started… Let’s start with a lovely, almost Grabber Blue Festiva spotted at Malibu Creek State Park.  Surely this fits right in driving…

  • 1989 Chevy Van With Ferris Wheel Seating

    1989 Chevy Van With Ferris Wheel Seating

    If you had an extra van and some Ferris wheel seats, you’d do the same. The seller is wise enough not to claim it’s a good idea to ride in the rear seats at highway speeds; so don’t get any idea.  What would YOU do with this oddity? Click for eBay ad Lohman, MO, USA…

  • Trick my Truck Tiki Van

    Trick my Truck Tiki Van

    It’s always fun when reality TV vehicles show up for sale. Recently, we featured the Astroghini from the very short-lived Ultimate Car Build Off.  Today’s feature is the No Worries Tiki van from Trick my Truck, which actually stuck around for five seasons. This was a rock band’s tour van and, obviously, was fixed up…

  • 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…

  • Bicentennial Van, with Creepiness

    Bicentennial Van, with Creepiness

    I, your humble host, am just old enough to barely remember the Freedom Train visiting Tulsa, Oklahoma and bringing with it Spirit of ’76 decals and other trinkets.  It was all the rage at that time, or at least it’s all I remember.  From time to time a Bicentennial Edition vehicle pops up and the memories come…

  • SurrealMobile Found Art Van

    SurrealMobile Found Art Van

    If you’re really into found art, this is the van for you!  Given this is in Chicago, a Houstonian might consider purchasing it and moving it south to join the Art Car festivities… The artist, who claims to be some sort of royalty, may or may not have made a name for himself around Chicago…
