Welcome to the Hooniverse Classic Captions Post, and yet again, it’s that time of the week in which this feature appears, so let’s review the premise; I search for images that were used by the car companies in their print advertising or brochures, and it is your job to provide a humorous caption that is…

Trolling Facebook Pages seems to be an hobby of mine lately, and it really is a great source of subject material that I can share with all of you on the weekends. As you know, we here at Hooniverse love the Station Wagon, and one from an independent mark is even better. Well, here is…

Weekend Edition – An incredibly rare Renault 5 (Le Car) 5-Door on Craigslist

comments
Welcome to the Sunday Edition of the Hooniverse Weekend, where I find incredibly odd cars available for sale, and see whether or not you are amused by my choices (or not…) The Renault 5 came to America in 1976 and was renamed Le Car by American Motors Marketing, and promptly distributed the diminutive economy car…

Hooniverse Obscure Muscle Car Garage – The 1998-2001 Saleen Explorer XP8

Welcome to the Hooniverse Obscure Muscle Car Garage, a feature in which I try and convince that Limited Edition Sport Utility Vehicles can be thought of as a Muscle Car, and to try and back up that premise with facts, figures and pretty pictures. Well, there was one other SUV that I tried to convince…

Not very often will you find an early 50’s era Ford offered under $10,000, let alone a very rare, top of the line model that was produced as a stop-gap measure in response to a new body style by GM and Chrysler. You see, Chevrolet and Plymouth both introduced a new “Hardtop” body style, without…

Let’s start this weekend with some luxury in the form of these Broughams that were highlighted on the Brougham Society Facebook Page recently. As we all know in the blogging community, the fascination for the Brougham started with Murilee Martin on Jalopnik a few years ago, and the flame has been carried on since within…

I am going to begin this weekend with a vehicle that I thought I would never find on the list that is Craig… A Pulse Autocycle. Back in September of 2012, I did a Weekend of Discovery, and this peculiar vehicle was one of the postings, and you can read all about it here. It…

Weekend Edition – A 1987 Chrysler New Yorker; What you get when Malaise Era Style meets New Wave Propulsion!

Continuing on with our strange weekend postings, and here is another Chrysler, only ten years newer. Chrysler was in a state of extreme distress during the late 1970’s, so much so that they sought a Government Bailout Guarantee to help keep the production lines going. They were just about to introduce a new kind of…

Here we go on the Sunday Edition of the Hooniverse Weekend, and I thought I would open up with a car built in Britain 45 years ago. The fact that this car isn’t just a pile of iron oxide is amazing in itself, and it probably should be saved, but are you the person who…

Welcome to the Hooniverse Classic Captions Post. Yes, it’s that time of the week in which this feature appears, so once again it’s time to review the premise of this feature; I search for images that were used by the car companies (or in this case, Car Equipment Providers) in their print advertising or brochures,…
