Those are horrible cars, but I knew exactly what it was from the dash photo, and if it was 15 minutes or less from here, I'd buy it for $1000.

That three spoke wheel is semi-in-demand from the 7 guys who are into the '78-9 Dodge Magnum.

As much as I like those... I'm a LITTLE disappointed it's not a Grandma Keith.

I can't figure out what kind of little ceramic figure is on the dash. In my head, it turns out to be a collector's item worth more than the car itself.

Looks like Frosty the Snowman taking a massive dump.

From firsthand experience, the speedo going to 85mph definitely does not mean this car can go 85mph.  Slowest non-broken car I have ever driven, period.

I expected that it was a pot, bowl.

Turns out Google lens says it's a $8 key chain.

Bonus points for the giant locking gas cap.

That's mostly because the stock gas cap was that size.  (And on that "High Optioned SE" model, the original had the bodyside molding on it.)

Somebody needs to buy this, turbo the leaning tower of power, and bring it to the challenge.

 

It's a good thing I live so far away from all the stuff 914 Driver finds...
