The World’s Worst Car Is For Sale On Craigslist

Welcome to Craigslist Crapshoot, our weekly search for the most bizarre, awesome, and/or terrible vehicles that the online classifieds has to offer. Last week I asked you to all become X-men (and women) and find all the Novas, Venturas, Omegas, and Apollos you could find, both normal and mutant. We’ll see if X marks the spot in a sec, but first this week’s assignment!

This week, let’s get personal, as in personal luxury coupes. The bigger the better and – here’s the kicker – I want them to be manual transmission equipped. I’ll bet you didn’t see that one coming.

And as usual, 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.

  1. 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
  2. If you don’t want an IDC account, you can create a wordpress.com account and do the same thing.
  3. 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
Craigslist Crapshoot doesn’t work if your candidates don’t get seen, so hopefully following one of these options will ensure that the floodgates of crap are fully open. And now, Let’s see who wone the home-built look-a-like contest.
 
GM’s mid-sizers from the late sixties to the end of the seventies were solid, dependable, and not half bad to look at either. That remains the case today as proven by all the iron your were able to dredge up. The most interesting to my eyes was the black and white and red all over Chevy Nova that happens to now call Germany its home. It was found by Manic King, who also came across a Cadillac Seville vous le vous’ing in France. Freaky.
 
What really does it about this German Nova however – aside from the weird juxtaposition to the tiny Opel Nova its presence in Europe affords –  is the fact that it sports a faux AXEL F California plate on the front bumper. I like the thought of Germans pointing at that and exclaiming Ah-xel Eff, yhou know, Eddie Murphy? He liken zee transvestite hooker and zen not to be paying zem , hahahahahahah. Anyway, well done Manic_King.

    Some questionable styling choices were made for this Thunderbird, but it's hard to argue with its go-fast bits.

    1964 Corvair Monza for $8000. I even like the wheels. It might not be luxury though.

    There doesn't appear to be much luxury on this 1960 Fairlane Club coupe, but I'm going to share it anyway, because you've just gotta love the stout 390 big block and 3-on-the-tree!

    This 225hp TT will, according to the ad copy, "never slip and slide." Clearly the owner isn't pushing hard enough in the corners. Their light right foot is your gain if you want to tackle the replacement clutch in a year or two (I hear the special dual-mass flywheels are cheap).

      Ok so here is my issue with the second one. I thought the manual was only an option on about 400 of the original mid 70's XJS's. That they basically existed for the sake of car reviews and to give them reviewers a car that was faster then the normal stock one.

      okay the interesting thing to note here is that they say 16v DOHC
      IIRC the lima 2.3 they turbo'd for the Tbird Turbo was an SoHC unit – BUUUUUTtt you can swap Volvo 16v heads onto the lima block with a little work, apparently, as it's a semi-common swap. I have a turbo, manifold and injectors for one of these in my garage from a turbo ranger project I never finished.

    These are the things I say when I find something awesome, then realize how my wife would go full-tilt murder-mode.

          You are not a financial adviser.
          A little cheaper and a little closer, I'd be looking at this one.

    Doesn't fit the usual criteria on account of it MISSING MOTOR AND TRANS [sic], but it's the most interesting thing I've found today. Was I in Washington, I might be mistaken for somebody. . .

        It's been doing that for years whenever a link follows an image. The trick is either to avoid the practice or to go back immediately and edit it before someone "locks" it with a response. IntenseDebate doesn't add it again after it's been removed manually.

    Did you know there was a Quad4-motivated version of the GM10 Cutlass Supreme coupe… and that it came with a 5-speed? (Unfortunately this one doesn't run.) http://battlecreek.craigslist.org/pts/3789358336….

      I did not, but I did know that when the 3.4L DOHC V6 was introduced on the facelifted version a few years later, it was available with a 5-speed. The same drivetrain was offered in two of the three other GM10 coupes, the Lumina Z34 and Grand Prix GTP.

      I had a 5 speed '89 Grand Prix with the 2.8 v6 and my mother had the '90 Grand Prix with the 3.1 V6. It had the most rubbery shifter. I miss that car so much.

    This might barely meet the requirements. Even if it doesn't, this is the craigslist crapshoot. You get what you get and you're unhappy about it, damnit. It's got the pedigree: limited information, screwed up pictures, dreams (and price) beyond measure. Enjoy at your peril.
