Chevy Enthusiast via Hooniverse: The Chevy Cameo Carrier
/
There was a time in which the Pickup Truck and the Passenger Car were nearly the same, sharing their chassis, drivetrain, interiors, even their forward sheetmetal.

/
OK, so Gilbern was the only Welsh marque ever, but even so, just look at it! The Mustang-meets-Longchamp lines, the gaping maw inhaling a gryphon, the howling Essex six-pot up front … it’s positively nwydwyllt, in the local vowel-challenged tongue.

V.I.S.I.T: A Bizarre Lincoln Limo spotted in New York
/
Call me a little lazy, but I just discovered these images on my “Crackberry” that I took when I was at the New York International Auto Show that happened a couple of weeks ago. Yes, it’s a rolling advertisement, with a “Pirates of the Caribbean” vibe to it for the bar called Jekyll and Hyde.

Only in Japan…

…would a Nissan Juke, quite possibly the ugliest affront to the Hellenistic concept of beauty in the classical Greco-Roman tradition since Nu Descendant un Escalier, rock neon-green wheels, yellow headlight covers, and be slammed to within an inch of its life.

Hooniverse Asks: What’s the Best Front-Wheel Drive Performance Car?
