Topless Mitsu

Well, if you spend any time on ebay, you'll find
someone hacking the top off an SUV. Sometimes the work is professional, sometimes it is not. In this case, it looks like care was taken in removing the top. If only this configuration had been brought to market!

Help, I need somebody: John Lenon's '56 Princess Hearse

So, you're a really well-heeled and slightly morbid Beetles fan? Well, have I got the auction for you, buddy.

“Yes, please.” Berkeley T60

The Jaguars of the 60's were famously referred to as one of the “greatest crumpet catchers known to man” by a certain Road & Track editor. This wee Berkeley T60 seems to share much of its styling with the pride of Coventry. I wonder if the little microcar is as beloved by the ladies.

Chubby Checker: Checker Aerobus Limo

That's a whole mess of doors. Looks pretty comfy though. The owner claims a fresh engine rebuild, and it looks to be really well sorted.

1999 4-door Wrangler. Life emulates Photoshop.

You could wait, and get the new Jeep with four doors, but what fun is that? Know what amazes me the most about this truck? The door panels. Look at the rear door panels. Now
that's attention to detail.

VW Type I Pickup, part deux

I guess it's a trend. Who knew? I don't know why, but this little truck makes me want to go buy a couple flats of
dusty miller.

VW Type I Pickup

I normally don't like the look of a Beetle stripped of its fenders. I guess the tiny pickup bed makes up for it.
