Now, let’s get into it! ⚡

STOCK SUPRA

1988 Toyota Supra

~116,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 4 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$4,800 / Watsonville, CA

I wish we could see the interior. The body looks straight and clean. Fun as is or could be (happily) turbo swapped.

CONSPICUOUS SUCCESS

1977 Lotus Eclat

~108,000 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$4,950 / Crystal Lake, NJ

Seller believes it wouldn't take more than a good weekend to get this Lotus back on the road. Bidding starts at $1,000 less.

DIAHAYABUSA

1991 Diahatsu Mini Truck (Hayabusa Swap)

~”100,000” miles, manual, 4wd, 4 cylinder

$3,500 / Knob, AR

This truck is rough. However, it has an almost completed Hayabusa swap in it which would be insanely fun when finished.

LUV IS CHEAP

1978 Chevrolet Luv

~79,878 miles, manual, rwd, 4 cylinder

$1,000 / Otis Orchards, WA

Aside from the rusted floorboard, this truck appears to be in great shape.

CRUSTY CONVERTIBLE

1990 Mazda RX-7

~140,000 miles, manual, rwd, rotary, pop-up headlights

$1,200 / Folsom, CA

Not sure what's happening on the trunk. This may be better as a parts car, but if you're dedicated, it could be saved.

➡️ If you buy a car listed in Good Deal Garage & email us a picture of yourself with the car, we’ll feature you in the newsletter PLUS send you something special in return!

CENTAR-ION

1986 Ford Centurion Van

~187,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 8 cylinder

$3,000 / Conrad, MT

I didn't know Ford made this, but it seems to have a bit of a cult following online. It's the comfort of a van with the utility of a truck.

SEVEN-YEAR LEAK

1988 Subaru XT

~100,814 miles, manual, fwd, 4 cylinder, pop-up headlights

$1,200 / Guilford, VT

Some of the interior of this XT was damaged due to a leaking window. One of the few front wheel drive Subarus.

OFFROAD EAGLE

1984 AMC Eagle

~130,000 miles, automatic, 4wd, 6 cylinder

$5,000 / Tacoma, WA

For the price you get one great looking and running Eagle, lots of parts, and a second non-running parts car.

DESERT SAMMY

1989 Suzuki Samurai

~44,000 miles, manual, 4wd, 4 cylinder

$4,500 / Tucson, AZ

This Samurai is a great color and looks super nice inside and out.
