Ummm

My neighbour had one. He looked like a cartoon character driving it. He couldn't give it away when he tried to sell it, but it might fit in the trunk of your Marauder ;)

This is my favorite part:

The car is loud because the muffler was removed giving that deep rumble.

Maybe we have been heading in the wrong diection with our exhaust mods on the MM??

Hey, don't knock it. My husband put 100,000 miles on his Festiva commuting 60 miles each way and DID give it away when he was finished with it.

I wrecked my '81 Cutlass years ago when I hit a telephone pole with the passenger front wheel. For the two months it took to get that unibody fixed, I bought a '77 Dodge Dart for $300, put basic liability insurance on it, and then sold it for $200 when I got my car back. That little beater did the job just right!

Exacly what I'm looking for. What I'm really looking for is a mid eightys T-bird or Cougar.

The green paint is a custom mix and in the sunlight looks like a highlighter pen.

ROFLMAO....

Love the Cadillac badge, too!

Go for it, MAD!

This is what had me Rolling on the floor last night when I first read it.


There is no ignition key. This starts with a screwdriver and we will throw in a free screw driver for starting it to the high bidder.

Wow -

That ride is suh-weet. I am thinking I went awry with my MM purchase.

For the same price I could have gotten approximately 197 of these cars. They're disposable, after all, and they should fit in those old Hot Wheels (tm) carrying cases I have somewhere . . ..


:lol: :lol:

Mad...When you say you're taking it to work, will that be in a back pack? Or, does it come with handles?

When I bought the '89 "Gutless Supreme" I knew I made the biggest mistake in my life, and I was right. Just look at my sig and you'll know why.

I bought the '89 Olds for $1,000 and I think I got ripped.

Ok, I see a roll cage, and what looks like fatty drag tires...

I have to wonder if it's a one off production of the ShoGun

That has to be the ugliest car I've ever seen, but hey, it looks better than the one you're going to buy MAD. :D

That was a joke LL3, a screwdriver for a key? I wouldn't pay anything for that. Insurance for it would cast me more then the car was worth.

BTW, how's the MM? I can see it needs a new engine but, what happened that you need a new one?

Talk about beaters,I had Renault LeCars. 6 all together,though never more than 4 at once. Made some good money off of them,and had some fun freaking out a couple of bad guys one night in a bad neighborhood when I had two of my Great Danes with me.

We'll talk this weekend, and I don't have Speedchannel. All I have is 75 channels.
