There Has to Be Something Wrong With This

OK, please tell me not to buy this. There has to be something terribly wrong with it.

1991 Jeep Comanche Runs - $600 (43204)

Good on gas
4 cyl
5 spd
Only used for work and back.

Willing to neg on price.

The truck has been in his family since 1999.

2 Wheel Drive

The miles read 208,855. However they rebuilt the engine 3 years ago and unfortunately i don't know who much is exactly on the engine itself. And i do not have the proof of it being rebuilt he didn't save any of the receipts.

There are some rust, if you can look closley on the photos i presented they are located at: The lower part of the passenger door, a little bit on the tail gate, some on the bumper, and a smudge on the lower part of the driver door.

We never got in any accidents with the truck and the only thing i can think of that is wrong with it is the gas meter dont work and it needs an oil change.

Stan Mott is Awesome

Ok guys, Stan Mott is awesome. This picture is the background on my computer even as we speak:



His surreal car art is pretty amazing. A decent intro to his work can be found here, and a more complete but hellish to navigate place to see his work is here. He's best known for the Cyclops (which was actually built!), but my favorite (besides that amazing aircraft carrier), has to be his History of Tanks.

It's all pretty great guys, look at it RIGHT NOW.

What Is This?

Today I saw a car I don't think I'd ever seen before. Nothing special or exotic, just rare. Yes kids, the Mazda Navajo!



Essentially a rebadged Ford Explorer, the Navajo was only made from 1991-1994 and barely sold.



It was Motor Trend's Truck of the Year in 1991, but eventually became embroiled in the Firestone Tire Controversy. They can be had pretty cheap, but in a cursory search of the internets I found just one for sale. $800 is almost worth taking a flier on, but I'm holding out for a trashy El Camino.

Road Trip to Nebraska?

Everyone has heard of the Cadillac Ranch, and someday I will see and graffiti it myself. What I had never heard of, however, was the Car Stonehenge. Check it out.

I...I Might Need This

Ladies and Gentlemen, The Gurgel G15, straight out of Brazil. I cannot think of a single reason I'm not cruising around Westerville in this right now.
