Maybe it's not the "weirdest" gearbox, but the Lotus 12 Formula 2 with a 5-speed transaxle was a bit ahead of its' time in 1957. It was dubbed the "Queer Box" for its' sequential gear change and notorious unreliability. I couldn't find a photo of the transaxle, but here is the car.

1959 Elva Formula Jr. Regular shifter - scary placement. Imagine taking a nut shot from this shifting into 3rd!!!

Hurst lightning rods - one of the few automatics that I will accept has a true "manual" operation.

Neutral: Caterham, Ariel, McLaren, etc. Probably should qualify that question with a high-volume restriction. If so, then I probably would agree.

There are not enough 2000s in the world to do things like this to them. CP based only on it being such a terrible choice. Sure it's worth its weight in parts, but, I refuse to give this guy money so he could go and make some other horrible frankenstein.

Sometimes, the whole is less than the sum of its parts. This is an autrocity.

Good thing that we have SO many of there little Datsuns lying about that people feel theneed to do this sh!t to them.

I'd vote CP but the button is not there to click...The price is decent but the result isn't. A CJ5 isn't the greatest Jeep and a Datsun roadster isn't the greatest roadster but someone's made both worse.

there are so many other pieces of shit out there you can Frankenstein together and have something where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. However, the creator of this, took a massive steamer all over the awesomeness that is the 2000. I'm OK with playing fast and loose with the Jeep. The desecration of

2 great cars ruined. What a shame!

That's a negatory, good buddy. Not that common a car to start doing weird-for-the-sake-of-weird body switches.

Best. Post. Ever.

The Volvo V70/S80 is sold new with a 115 hp 1.6 turbodiesel. It's not that bad actually, but it's a very small engine in a very large car by European standards. Kind of amusing since you could get the S80 with a small V8.

And it is an automatic :(

I'd like to see you do an 11 in literally anything.

Someone is mad their significant other can't do the same.
