Joshua here,

Now, let’s get into it!⚡

FREAKIN’ CANADA

The way I look for cars allows for some overflow into Canada. I found this JDM Outback XT and wanted to include it anyway. For all the info click the picture.

POTENTIAL REBUILD

19981 Mazda RX-7

~117,000 miles, manual, rwd, rotary, pop-up headlights

$1,500 / Modesto, CA

The exterior looks to be in pretty good shape. The only info included in the listing is that it is a project car and may need an engine rebuild.

FAINT MEMORIES

1977 Toyota Celica GT

~100,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 4-cylinder

$7,500 / Albany, NY

Part of me feels like I have included this car before but I can’t find any record of it. It’s not currently running as it has been sitting for a few years.

DROOPY FACE

1992 Volkswagen Corrado

~129,000 miles, manual, fwd, 6-cylinder, supercharged

$8,000 / New Haven, CT

Something about the front of this car with the black (carbon?) hood and fenders makes it look droopy. I’m fairly certain it’s perfectly straight though.

POSITIVE PROFILE

1972 Volvo P1800

~45,000 miles, manual, fwd, 4-cylinder

$8,000 / North Boulder, CO

The lines on this Volvo are phenomenal. It looks fantastic from any angle but especially from the side. It looks like a spy would drive it in a movie.

SHIFT KIT SCOOTIN’

1949 Ford F3 Rat Rod

unknown miles, automatic, rwd, 8-cylinder

$7,500 / Minneapolis, MN

This custom Ford rat rod is sure to get a lot of looks. The owner says it runs and drives well.

UNDERCOVER COUPE

1990 Nissan 240SX

~144,000 miles, automatic, rwd, 4-cylinder, pop-up headlights

$2,000 / Romney, WV

All I know are the miles, it needs tires, and it was female-driven. I can also see the front has gotten a little too friendly with some kind of object.
