Mysterious Utility: 1992 Isuzu MU

Here in America, lots of things are good. But some things that aren’t include how we are repeatedly sent the crappiest versions of otherwise bad-ass trucks and off-road-friendly rigs that would challenge any Wrangler owner for global wheeling domination…. more»

7,317 Mile Econobox: 1993 Plymouth Colt

When the badge-engineered Colt first appeared on U.S. soil, it was actually a compelling captive import, offering rear-wheel drive and decent looks, combined with wagon variants and later “Silent Shaft” engine technology. As the years wore on, the Colt… more»

China Blue Estate: 1983 Mercedes 300TD

While Mercedes’ W123 cars are best known for their ability to tolerate excessive miles and years of neglect, it’s always nice to find one that’s been lovingly preserved. This 1983 model is a desirable longroof model, up for offer… more»

Stepside Survivor: 1963 Chevrolet Pickup

It’s hard to tell whether this is a lightly restored 1963 Chevrolet Stepside pickup or just a very well maintained survivor. The listing doesn’t break out which category it falls into, but the extremely clean condition makes it appealing… more»

Rare 5-Speed: 1984 Dodge Cargo Van

Finding a clean first-generation Caravan isn’t easy days; finding a preserved Cargo Van of the same generation with a manual transmission is downright impossible. This example appears to be as good as it’s described, with a clean body and no… more»

In The Barn Since ’78: 1962 Maserati 3500GT

It’s a shame that Maserati has begun building rapidly depreciating CUVs and sedans that are anonymous aside from the familiar script on the trunk lid. No longer will we pine to find a Maserati locked away in a California… more»

Cheap Rallye Spec: 1976 International Scout

This 1976 International Scout is described as a project-grade survivor with just one repaint and several desirable factory options. The seller acquired the Scout from a longtime owner owned it since 1982 and let it sit beginning in 1989…. more»

Junkyard Rescue: 1971 Datsun 240Z

This 1971 Datsun 240Z has been languishing in a Texas junkyard for the past 15 years before being extricated and posted on eBay for slae. This is a desirable early model that retains a motor and transmission but no… more»

Express Mail: Twin-Engined Postal Jeep

File this in the “I didn’t know it existed but now desperately want it” department: this custom 1983 Jeep mail truck features twin small block Chevy motors paired to a TH-400 automatic and Jeep rear end, all while maintaining… more»

Build Your Own Rally Car: 1989 Merkur XR4ti

If you’ve ever wanted to go rallying, now’s your chance with this rally-prepped 1989 Merkur XR4ti that the seller claims comes with loads of spare Cosworth parts and other upgrades. As the above photo shows, he’s apparently getting out… more»

Family Collection Sell-Off: Classics in Florida

We recently received a tip about a collection clean-out in Florida, apparently listed by a private family that comes across as mildly cantankerous in the craigslist description. It’s too bad they won’t do silly things like “answer emails” or… more»

Rare Find In Alaska: 1968 MGC GT

One of my more pointless automotive fascinations is the existence of interesting cars living in far-away places. This 1968 MGC GT is located in the unincorporated community of Chugiak, Alaska, where it’s seemingly been for quite some time without succumbing… more»

No Reserve Driver: 1979 BMW 320i

The E21-chassis 3-Series has found its way into my own garage, with a 1980 320/6 Euro-spec car that I discovered as a “farm find” some years ago. This car is a U.S.-model, made obvious by its bulbous safety bumpers… more»

1986 Yugo GV Garage Find With Only 1,803 Miles?

It’s hard to believe based on the photos, but the seller of this Yugo GV claims there’s just over 1,800 original miles on the clock. The information in the listing is scattered at best, and the current condition of… more»

Long Wheelbase Edition: 1978 International Scout

For years, I’ve been obsessed with long wheelbase Mercedes and Jaguars; little did I know that International was doing the same thing with their popular Scout 4×4 to give off-roading passengers the same sense of luxury. This “Terra” edition… more»
