Spotted: A heavily-modified #Toyota #4Runner. It has a Cummins diesel engine and a highly custom gear train. I don’t really understand what all those levers do. The owner says they provide ridiculous gear ratios for rock crawling, and independently-selectable front, rear axle power, or 4WD.

Spotted in Fremont, CA: A 1998 Nissan Safari, right-hand-drive, Japanese market. These cars are common in Southeast Asia, but they were never offered in the US.

Well here’s a sacrilegious #weirdCar for you, Mastodon. A formerly air-cooled Porsche 930 with a GM 5.7 liter V8 swapped in. The new engine is water-cooled, of course, so there are coolant hoses running to the front of the car where a radiator sits. I didn’t get to meet the owner so I don’t know much more than that.

It is so hard to photograph shiny black cars, because they are essentially mirrors. You’re not capturing the shape of the car so much as the reflections in the car.

Spotted today: A superb example of a 1970s Mazda RX-3 Coupe with a rotary engine.

Here’s a #weirdCar for you, Mastodon! It’s a 1945 MG TC, the first MG automobile to make it big in the USA. Rumor has it that Edsel Ford, Henry Ford’s son, was the first customer this side of the Atlantic.
This unit has been restored and repainted in Toyota Supra Red. With its sports car pedigree and beautiful proportions (and suicide doors!), this car looks stunning almost eight decades on.

This is a 1986 Ford RS200 Evolution rally car, one of only 200 homologation units made to qualify for the now-defunct Group B WRC rally. This car features a mid-mounted 4-cylinder engine with a massive turbocharger and makes more than 800 HP on race gas.
This particular car belongs to Hoonigan and was driven by the late Ken Block.
Fun fact: it is not possible to fill up this car’s gas tank by yourself. The gas cap is located under the rear clamshell, and you need two people to open that.

Here’s a Rossion Q1, a new design built atop a Noble M400 chassis. It features a mid-mounted 500+ HP twin-turbocharged Ford Duratec V6 engine, and weighs only 2,300 lb with a carbon-kevlar body.

Here’s another #WeirdCar for you, Fediverse! It’s a 1952 Ferrari 212/225 Inter Spyder Barchetta by Touring Superleggera. It’s one of the last Ferrari 212s built, and it’s the only 212 Inter ever built with a 225 engine.
This car was sold to the Ford Motor Company under Henry Ford II’s name. It was purportedly used as inspiration for the Ford Thunderbird (note the egg-crate grille).
This car was on display at the Ford Greenfield Labs in #PaloAlto #sfba, and was viewable by the public during their Cars and Coffee event.
