Thursday Twister: Oddball
For this week’s Thursday Twister the task is simple — find the best oddball car for sale on your local craigslist, eBay, autotrader or whatever. The crazier the better…
I will kick things off with this 1996 Mercury Marquis “show winning” thing offered for $2,500 near Houston, TX (tip from Vance). Yeah. Beat that.

Here is a fourth generation Camaro trying to look like a first generation. Badly. At a first generation Camaro price, too.
Sorta reminds me of that Avanti thing that was based on the 'Mero…but better looking. I like it!
Let me see if I can fix that picture.

Far from the worst example of modern center sections with older front sheet metal, but I'm pretty sure I could find a real first gen at what he's asking.
We do our hunting buggies up here in AK –

Whoa. Betcha I could get Alex Jones talk radio on EVERY AM frequency with that thing.
Who doesn't want a Lamboghini/Fiero love child?

Wait…that is a different one. There are TWO Lamboieris on Raleigh FieroList right now.
A project
Another Fierobogini
It could be the bomb diggity if done correctly or look like a playskool kids car.

1997 Cad-mino Hearse
That's a flower car, isn't it? Please do not post the link to the blue one. My wife would go through the ceiling if I tried to use Labor Day weekend for a fly-and-drive to get it.
I love the 73, but the flower car looks butt ugly. It was built on a stretch chassis. I had a 73 Caddy that was falling apart, 8-11 mpg, but it went anywhere. Once the tranny overheated and locked up, and it leaked everywhere, but that was due to age and deteoration. But hey! it was free when my previous car died.
Wow, Kaibeezy, that Cadimino is beautiful!
Sadly, I'd never own a 70s Caddy. Breakdown nightmare (please don't ask me how I know…)
Well, maybe…
