12 Most Embarrassing Vehicles--Baja?


Recommended Posts

I've driven so many POSes and weird cars - I just don't care much and, indeed, I find 'odd' cars kind of interesting. I even drove a 1948 Willys Fleetvan in highschool, old RHD postal vehicle. better than walking. never had money for 'nice' cars and never had my ego tied-up with my wheels too much.

 

But other people I'm sure though that van was nuts.

 

kinda like this ;

I always thought that people should be embarrassed for having an outback sedan.

My Outback is a station wagon.  

 

I would be embarrassed if it had a leather bra on the front!

Those little delivery van things are kinda cool - i would drive one. lol bet they are top heavy tho...

 

that red, yellow, and green thing looks like a kids toy... :huh:

Mine had a seat in it, but was much easier to drive standing up. The door in the back was segmented on cables - like a garage door.The door on the side would slide back and latch - just a canvas strap across the opening. It would sometimes freak other drivers out at 2 lane stops when I was on the inside lane. They look over and see this geeky teenager STANDING in a yellow van right next to them! Made a little money hauling furniture with it on a few occasions too. The engine was a flathead 4 IIRC. Had a Ford 3 speed auto in it. The accelerator was an 'arm' that stuck out and you operated it with the inside of your foot. Barke pedal was up-down. Very odd. I THINK I have a pic somewhere that might show just a part of it in the background. Probably from about 1972... I'll look for it.

 

that jo-car is in the Subaru museum in NJ I think.
