Yawner Japanese sedans with an autolethargic transmission don’t make many appearances here, but there is the odd exception. As usual, the unicorn factor strikes again, because when’s the last time you saw a Mitsubishi Tredia with 37,000 miles on it? Were you even a glint in your daddy’s eye? Or too busy buying white aviator shades to go with your white leather man-dals? Either way, it’s a rare sight, and it’s also striking how similar this looks to the contemporary Camry. Actually, this looks like someone put a first-generation Camry in a blender with a splash of Renault Alliance and a soupcon of Renault Medallion to come up with a perfectly anonymous sedan. Nonetheless, it’s pretty cool to see one that’s still so youthful in miles. Check out this 1985 Mitsubishi Tredia for sale for $2000 in Novato, CA.

August 1, 2015Summer Roadster – 1969 Datsun 1600 Roadster
July 6, 2015In summer, the classic car market blossoms and people are reminded, either by new acquisitions or just the good weather, that they really should get around to selling that old thing in the driveway. Of course, sunny weather is also a good time to sell a roadster since it’s the time when you want to drive with the top down, although with near-100-degree temperatures in western Oregon right now, that may be a stretch, and your modern car with air conditioning and cloth seats doesn’t look so bad. Either way, it does keep the cars dry, and perhaps you’ll want to wait out the hot temperatures by fixing up the interior of today’s feature.
