Now, let’s get into it! ⚡

ROCKIN’ ROLLA

1974 Toyota Corolla Wagon

~16,878 miles (rollover), manual, rwd, 4 cylinder

$3,500 / Greenville, NC

Without the messed up seat and a little bit of rust, this Corolla is in fantastic shape. It wouldn't need too much to go back to its former glory.

TURB-YELL-O - OVERBUDGET

1988 Chrysler Conquest tsi

~80,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 4 cylinder, turbo, pop-up headlights

$6,000 / Round Lake, IL

Lots of work was done on the engine. The owner doesn't list any power numbers, but from the looks of it, I'm sure there's plenty for now.

LEOPARD SEATS

1988 Mitsubishi Van Wagon

~223,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 4 cylinder, turbo

$3,250 / Santa Cruz, CA

Man, these old Japanese cab over vans are incredible. They look great and just keep going.

PATHETIC PAINT

1989 BMW 325i

~174,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 6 cylinder

$4,000 / Denver, CO

Body looks really nice, but the paint isn't original and wasn't done the best, according to the owner.

SVX X2 - OVERBUDGET

1994 Subaru SVX LSi

~190,000 miles, automatic, awd, 6 cylinder

$5,500 / Covington, TN

Everything on this car looks super clean. The owner says the sale comes with a second car for parts.

BACKWOODS BEAUTY - OVERBUDGET

1980 Subaru GL

~9,950 miles, automatic, fwd, 4 cylinder

$5,500 / Woodbury, TN

Looking at this almost feels like time traveling. This Subaru has been very well preserved for the last 44 years.

FORDZA

1994 Ford Probe GT

~130,000 miles, manual, fwd, 6 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$3,950 / NW Yonkers, NY

Fun fact: The Probe is more Mazda than it is Ford. It's Ford’s body design on a Mazda MX-6.

TIMELESS TWO-TONE - OVERBUDGET

1986 Volkswagen Vanagon Wolf Edition

~160,000 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder

$6,500 / King William, VA

The exterior of this van is immaculate. I mean, seriously, look at it.
