The VW Beetle is a cult classic that never had a chance to become a valuable collection piece. A cute round eyed headlight smile married to the chirpy rattle of the aircooled boxer made it a popular economy car during its day. Cute and lovable, much like Gizmo from the 1980s classic film Gremlins. Adding... Continue Reading →
According to ad, this Porsche begins life cribbing Lola chassis bits out of square tubing. I’m not sure how cribbing Lola Can-Am bits makes this into an 80s Porsche Icon. It looks more like an interpretation of a 917. It’s both neat and disheartening that this is powered by a Chevrolet 302, presumably a DZ... Continue Reading →
650 wheel horsepower in the capable E36 chassis might wake you up from whatever zone you’re in, right now. The S50 always sounds great with a turbo. Reminiscent of the old Tekademics turbo M3 in all the Gumball rally videos from before YouTube.the g JE forged pistons, Eagle H beam rods, ARP studs seem almost... Continue Reading →
This is almost an evolution of the work of Ferrari. Bizzarrini started as a test driver for the commandatore, Enzo. He later became a design engineer. I am unsure of the circumstances regarding his departure from Ferrari but I’m sure it’s entertaining. You get the curvy Italian beauty coupled to a Chevy 327 or Lamborghini... Continue Reading →
It looks like a cheap start in wheel to wheel racing might be answered by this 1991 Mazda Miata. Has a BP 1.8L swap running a Garrett GT3071r turbo at 8 psi. This NA is well aged and caged. The seller has quite a grocery list of spares; if you’re willing to pay the price.... Continue Reading →
It looks like 996s might never get any cheaper than a Cabriolet roller. You’re only an eBay binge away from hording the makings of a GT3 cup track day beast. Some assembly required. Houred out GT3 cup takeoff components are readily available on eBay, racing junk and PCA classifieds. Not too bad in here. Removable... Continue Reading →
Not much in the ad. Obviously needs an engine, likely the rest of the drivetrain as well. Classic face in a usual place. Here is the Craigslist link: https://losangeles.craigslist.org/ant/pts/d/littlerock-1956-chevrolet-nomad-project/7147324649.html Wagon life looks fun. It’s colorful for sure. In case the ad goes down.
Seller wants a premium for this at $16k but the swap was professionally done at Castro Motorsports and the wiring harness is uncut. The brakes & chassis appear sorted. Wilwood 6 piston brakes, Ground Control coilovers, Z3 oem steering rack and Ireland Engineering sway bars round out the handling. A bundle of snakes. Engine is... Continue Reading →
Group B rally fans know it, Audiphiles know it and the rest of the internet knows wild inline five beast that lurks in the heart of the original, the Ur S4. When uncorked, it sounds reminiscent of a Lamborghini gargling a sewing machine with a boiling teapot in the background. Sighting these turbo Quattros from... Continue Reading →
Looks like someone is tired of their 9 second Fox Body Mustang. The parts list is longer than most celebrity speeches. Fortunately, the parts tick the right boxes. It could be a lot worse under the hood. It appears to sport a built small Windsor Ford smallblock. It’s been stroked to 331 cubic inches from... Continue Reading →
