They say there’s an ass for every seat, and that heartening vulgarity is the likely reason that there exists in the world so much crap on the likes of Craigslist and other online classified providers. And THAT’S the reason we have Craigslist Crapshoot, our weekly commenter compendium of crap that rivals a George Romero movie for its panoply of horrors.
last week I ask for a specific kind of crap – that being the worst road-worthy convertibles you could find for sale across the world’s classifieds, and boy did you deliver. We’ll get to the winner of that contest after the jump, but before we do we have some housekeeping to do. First off, no snipe hunt this week – we want all the crap that you can find. Just remember that the cars or trucks – or three-wheeled paper maché toads – need to be runners and licensable for the road.
The other thing is that it seems a good number of your responses are getting caught in our commenting system’s spam filter, and hence not getting the exposure they so richly deserve. There are a couple of ways to make sure your voice is heard –
- 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 ti**@ho********.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

For just 2 grand, yes, you can fulfill your lifelong dreams of Pinto ownership.

This is awesome.
I love the flesh-colored ones.
Is it flesh-tone, or a pinto Pinto?
Just remember not to hug it from behind, it might get…well…hot.
I'm trying to convince a Malaise lover on G+ to grab it. It's a collectible and even has the 70's bubble wrap seats! Add in a stick shift and its a steal at $2000.
And you can re-enact the Prilosec OTC commercial that stars Larry the Cable Guy! Awesome!
It's in Victoria (a German-settled town) where you first start to see palm trees, headed toward the Gulf.
I want this. A 2.3 turbo with the Volvo DOHC head conversion, a T-5, and some subtle suspension upgrades….
Could be the best little sleeper ever. That thing looks to be in just insanely good condition.
No pictures, and non-runners, apologies, but this is a fantastic deal, right guys?

And now a dilemma.
See I have the $100 Project Stella Mustang http://hooniverse.info/2012/02/29/stella-project-c… and I was finally going to get down to work on it next month. I was pricing out engines and parts but then I find this looking or crap for this article.
So for the price of the engine I could have a running convertible with the wrong transmission?! Crap I made a promise to Stella's previous owner I'd fix her up.

I had a worse one, bought for $700 with its second hood crunched in and one headlight shattered and dangling. One rear wheel arch disintegrated completely; it was made of Bondo, which I overlooked at the time of purchase… because the time of purchase was at night, in January, in Maine. Oh, and it needed a head gasket sooner or later, the PCV system was clogged as is usual, the throttle stuck and tried to kill me (and then the accelerator pedal bracket broke, and I had to work the throttle by hand between shifts) and I replaced the ground wire on the starter with a piece of bent aluminium wire.
When I sold it, I drove it 80 miles with almost no brakes, downshifting to 5 MPH and then standing on the pedal to engage the barely-functional rear calipers. Traded it for a 244 that promptly required a clutch and an alternator. I still got the better end of the deal.

…how about the world's fuzziest Kia? This one's almost guaranteed a sketchball history, too, being in some inner-city wrecking yard and, well, being an older Kia.
That said, I actually feel like this is the scariest contender…

Old Benz, good… low mileage, that's nice… kind of creepy and possessed-looking, even the right colour for Christine… what do you mean, 'short distances'? 'Mostly for parts'? Oh no. Ohhhhh no. No way.
Not crap… just terrifying.
If you are willing to go down to $600 why are you listing it for $600?!
Believe me, I wondered that, too.
I'm hoping for a 'terrible ad' competition. Now that I'm living closer to the city, there's a lot of illiterate foreigners in addition to the usual illiterate rednecks.
I would pick a lot more towns that are way creepier for automobiles than everett. I knew a guy in high school from revere who had a fun insurance scam going. He and his buddies would push cars they no longer wanted off piers and claim they were stolen and collect on them. Rinse and repeat. Lowell and Lynn probably have their own stories of automotive hell. Hell, brockton alone probably beats them all!
I live in Lowell at the moment.
I'm also drinking at the moment.
This isn't a coincidence.
I'd definitely say Brockton has 'em beat, though. Jamal here would like to sell you a set of dubs… odds on 'em being stolen?
Jamal? That dude is legit!

Those are pretty rare with a manual (four plus overdrive)… and for the price, you can't go wrong. Why do you not already own this?
Hell if I know. Probably because my wife. Yeah, that sounds like a good enough excuse.
For $350, don't ask, just buy. You can make your money back selling it to a LeMons team.
Usually a solid excuse for not doing something car related.
I don't know if motorcycles are acceptable, but this had to be shared anyway.

How the hell are we going to top this?
BRB, off to find more poorly-riced shitboxen.
Trust me I am diving all over my local Craigslist as well.
How the hell do you RIDE this? (other than in shame)
Looks like there are foot rests added up front, so it's monkey style. However, that still leaves plenty of room for some testacular ergonomic discomfort against the gas tank.
It took me a moment to spot those foot rests. Part of that time was overcoming the shock from trying to figure out how you bend your arms that way…
I've never understood ape hangers, on anything. But on this poor GSXR, they make even less sense.
Of course, nothing about this makes sense.
Oh yeah. There was so much dafuq coming off that picture that I've tried to hit the +1 on it at least five times. Alas, only the first click worked.

The gas station doesn't look very busy, so it'd STILL be a bad buy.

Those headlights… that dashboard… I'm not sure we can top this.
We've had a couple already with that Cruiserbusa bike and the unfinished Merc widebody. We still have six more days to look as well.
The really amazing thing is somebody thought this was a good idea in 2005, not 1975 or even 1985.
And you don't get the hubcaps!
Why have all of the major manufacturers not come up with this idea before? Every truck needs a door to get into the bed. This guy is an automotive genius. Chrysler needs to hire him, right away. Or maybe Mitsubishi or Suzuki. He could save those companies.
And the winner is… Want to park this thing outside a club Saturday night and watch drunken people trying to enter the back seat. That alone would be worth the money. Wouldn't it?

Must really like Cavaliers, since there's a 4 door in the driveway.
My babysitter when I was little had a crappy 4 door with so much junk inside you had to rearrange the crap to make a spot to sit. I don't think I will ever be able to keep that image from coming to mind anytime I see a Cavalier.
That's in my old neighborhood, he owned it over four years ago and also had a Sunfire at the same time. I laughed as soon as I saw the pic.
I'm adding this one not because of the horribleness of the vehicle- it's really not all that bad, but for another grammatical preference of many craigslist posters that I don't quite understand. http://stlouis.craigslist.org/cto/3572992902.html
Look past the all caps, and you'll see "CUSTOM HOUSE OF KOLORS PAINT "LOTS OF METAL FLAKE", ". The outer quotes are mine, the inner quotes are his. Why do people quote their own words in an ad? Or maybe this was a statement of a friend, maybe someone came to see his newly painted truck and said "wow, LOTS OF METAL FLAKE." I mean, they fucking screamed that, because they were so surprised. But at least tell me who said it.

Alright here's my last post. Now I'm not posting it because it's crappy, in fact it's kind of cool in a weird way (just the way we like it in the hooniverse), but it's 34,900 dollars. Now, that's quite a bit of money, and it's probably a fair price for what it is, but my question is why is this on Craigslist? Who would need/want one? As far as I can see it's only practical use is for tours; that's not a very big niche market, and the consumers of that market probably aren't on the list of Craig. Although, I'm sure there are some pretty awesome, unpractical uses for it…maybe an old-timey party bus.

I don't know whether I should laugh or cry. Mostly I'm going to cry. Then realize he will get this much for it when gas hits $5 a gallon.
…that plate makes me curious.

Normal people use wallets. Keeping cash in your hand is a great way to get mugged by someone with a creepy painted van.
Needs more Where The Wild Things Are.
If that were closer, I'd at least take a look. The paint is easy to remedy, and $1200 isn't a bad price for a runner. Plus, the bull bar makes it look like it has serious A-Team potential.
Looking for a great buy on a hot rod racing pickup?

This is something I've never seen nor heard of — a Chevette-based kit car. I know the Pinto oily bits have been used for kit cars, with the front suspension design being particularly popular with its double-a-arm goodness, but the Chevette? I thought that car was little more than a Malaise-era punch line.

It was mostly a Malaise-era punchline, but I expect the trio of Diesel Chevettes above to actually sell. At least as parts cars. The diesel Chevettes have a following amongst a particular crowd of hypermilers (fuel efficient, good starting shape, low mass, etc).
Here you go, here's your chance to own a 2006 Renault Clio for just a hair under $5000. Good luck with the DMV!

Here's one for Tim: http://sfbay.craigslist.org/sby/cto/3583265796.ht…
Sorry, no pictures. But that only makes it better, because you can use your imagination! Only $650!

147,000miles and it's pre-blowuppinessed. You know it won't crap out on you right away or soon, because it already is! Only $3000.
EDIT: Also, I figured out another great CL keyword search to find contenders. Can you figure out my secret?
Let me guess… "Mitsubishi" ?
hahahahaha. Nope. (But that one would probably work great, the real answer turned up a number of them.) I posted three things right in a row, only the last is a Mitsubishi.
