From the make do with what you have department comes what happens when an Oldsmobile Toronado and an Airstream trailer are fused into awesome. Living within ones means may be the slogan of 2009, but creating something worthwhile with what you have is clearly more fun. Put one more Toronado on the other end, and all-wheel drive with four wheel steering is yours for the road. Thanks to Weird RV’s for bringing us this fine example of American innovation in action.
While not quite the usual sub 500-dollar car, the Starion will be an omnipresent and endlessly ongoing project here at Clunkbucket. Purchased back in 2004 as a replacement for an Evo8 that was garnering way too much attention from the authorities, the Mitsubishi Starion (aka Chrysler Conquest) has been a source of both enjoyment and frustration over the last few years. Keeping 25 year old machines running is fun enough. Making them go faster or handle better makes for even more entertainment. We’ll share what we’ve learned along the way.
