Welcome to Craigslist Crapshoot, our weekly search for the most bizarre, awesome, and/or terrible vehicles that the online classifieds has to offer.
The General certainly likes to get around. At the very least you’ll find GM mills in, well, damn-near anything. You all found a ton of cars for sale where an engine from the General now calls home. We’ll see the most ironic of those in a sec, but first I’ll bet you’re champing at the bit for this week’s quest.
Sometimes you need to haul stuff, and other times you need to haul ass. This week we want to find cars that can do both – fast wagons.
As always, we want your finds to go down in infamy and not in the site’s spam filter. Follow any of the following advice and you’re crap will be known far and wide.
- Easiest way to not get caught in the spam filters is to create an IntenseDebate account. If you do so and your posts aren’t appearing, let us know at tips@hooniverse.info and we can put you on the whitelist
- If you don’t want an IDC account, you can create a wordpress.com account and do the same thing.
- If you’re the Ted Kaczynski type and don’t want any kind of account, then try to place only a single link in a comment and just drop any outgoing link in via its raw URL and not as a text link.
Got that? Okay, let’s get it on with some General knowledge.
Have you ever really tried to fit a square peg in a round hole? When you’re a kid they always tell you that it just doesn’t fit, so don’t bother trying. And of course, you try anyway. There was a lot of that going on last week, the only difference being that the odd-mixes represented were GM engines residing where they traditionally wouldn’t have gone. And unlike our childhood shape metaphor, these almost always fit.
The best fit, at least the coolest and with the best badge, was found by mrh1965, and is, as noted by Synchromesh, a true Porschevrolet. Well done mrh1965!
