This car's countenance may or may not reveal anything about its continence - but given the British automotive preference for all things drippy, I suspect it could use (in Brit-speak) a nappy.

Yes, I wish they'd put some effort into keeping it in stock.

I once had a '90 Isuzu Trooper, which was this Mitsubishi's spiritual cousin from the era.

RIP SpeedVision. You are still missed...

A summer spent with a '74 Fiat X1/9 changed my mind about the importance of lightness and balance. It remains my definition of a "go kart on rails" driving experience.

Sorry, I don't buy the prototype story.

The ad claims the Spice two-speed transfer case - but I still suspect 1:1 high ratio. 6.72 axle ratio is also in the ad.

Also (since it doesn't specifically say in the ad): Which trans did you presume he's using?

Wow! That's a lot of digging. The ad's numbers are still a bit off - but within the realm of plausibility.

Perhaps - though that's not what the ad implies.

Could be; I'm more familiar with equipment hour meters like the Hobbs meter that record elapsed "wall clock" time while the engine is running.

Wait a minute... From the ad:

As always: Rare + Interesting =/= Valuable.

Entertaining kaleidoscope-and-sunshine fun for what-the-heck-it's-only-a-grand-and-it-runs money. If you get bored with it in 6 months, you'll almost certainly get the cash back out of it.

As one who spent many a summer in Oconto County...

It's beautiful, and rare in the right way and would be really cool to drive around town.

Arrgghhh! It's been a entertaining week of interesting NPOCP entries - and I have go to into the weekend after laying my eyes on this?

...and the next week, the hippie will get the used oil from the burger joint on the other side of town.

Yesterday's Bavaria cried out to be turned into something else (I'd vote for squeezing the later 3.5 and a manual into it). This begs to be left alone - and driven forever. It even looks like it *wants* a modern hippie to run its diesel on cleaned-up oil from that donut place down the street. NP.

At 8:13 am, I see 15 "CP" votes.
