SWB Targa: 1968 Porsche 912

Snake In The Grass: 1978 Ford Mustang II King Cobra

Early Model Pair: ’62 + ’63 VW Beetles

Never Seen One: 1960 Mitsubishi Go Pickup

The range of Japanese oddballs that did duty as commercial and/or light utility vehicles never ceases to amaze me, as you wouldn’t think a vehicle with just three wheels was able to perform cargo ferrying duties. Well, this 1960… more»
