Hooniversations: Cabin Cruiser Bikes- Good Thing or Bad Thing?
/
/
comments
Cabin bikes seem like a good idea, overcoming the inclement weather and road hazard detriments of riding a motorcycle, while still providing the narrow profile and agility that only having two-wheels affords. The question is; why haven’t they caught on?

Bob Dylan is one of the most famous, most recognizable, and one of the most respected names in the music industry. His songs have become a part of the rock ‘n’ roll canon, and have been covered so many times that younger listeners are often surprised to learn that a particular piece was, in fact,…

After the gas crisis decimated sales of their rotary-powered lineup, Mazda rebounded with a car that while little, was claimed by the company to be better than good- it was great.

Well. If I thought I was getting frightened by your skills before, you’re really starting to scare me now. Yesterday, I blatantly cheated. “Ha!”, thought I, “Nobody will be able to get this one!”

What the Hell? "1947" Fiat-Crosley Thing
/
/
comments
My first thought was Dr. Seuss Goes Racing. Beyond that, it devolves into a bunch of “huh?” and “what?”. To begin with, ain’t no way this is a 1947 anything. The seller bought it from the daughter of the original owner (and likely, builder), meaning we’re at least two levels removed from the real story.…

We Can't Decide If We Want to Make a Kit Car Joke or a Cocaine Joke: '85 Lamborghini Jalpa

Looking for some a mid-80s supercar, but don’t want something so common as a Ferrari 328 or Lotus Esprit? In the market for a Lamborghini, but the Urraco is just too blasé? For a mere $44,950 you can have the thrill of owning one of the most obscure Lamborghinis ever. [Ed: sorry for the missing…

comments
LeMons Assistant Perpetrator Nick Ponn, also known as theeastbaykid, has headed off on an interesting mission. While everyone else was paying attention to the races going on around the track, he was out behind them breaking into and stealing things from photographing the participants’ cars.

Horny BMW X5 Commits Mount & Run, Doesn't Even Leave a Twenty on the Dresser.

Some stereotypes are false- white people can’t dance, zombies eat only brains, etc. But some stereotypes are proven time and time again, and thankfully we now have a plethora of security cameras to document those involving parking lots and the callous douchebaggery of certain BMW drivers. This individual wasn’t at all concerned that the two…

Name That Part: Tom Selleck’s Moustache Edition

comments
In yesterday’s Name That Part, I gave you two pieces of scrap metal, each about the size of my fingernail. I got messages from people who weren’t playing telling me I was being mean, or that I wasn’t playing fair. And Mike the Dog got the right answer. Yes, they were indeed two contacts from…

Hooniverse's Top Ten Scariest Movie Vehicles

With the pagan ritual known as Hallowhoon just around the corner, I thought it might be a good opportunity to take a look at some car-related horror movies to fit the season. If you’ve ever been a teenager on a date, you know that nothing gets her scrunched up next to you better (or is…

Mi Casa Es Su Casa de Eldorado

comments
Hemmings comes up with some odd-ball stuff from time to time, and today’s find is one of the oddest. Yeah, that’s an Eldorado Shooting-Brake with a pair of lovely caddy humps on the fenders pretending to cover the dual spares. Hemmings says that it was a George Barris creation, named Casa de Eldorado, and based…

Like I said before, our LeMons BMW 633csi has given me a bad case of BMWs-with-overbite fever (hyperarchomunichosis, in technical terms). As such, I’ve got saved searches on Craigslist, eBay and Autotrader classic for 70s and 80s BMW 5 and 6-series cars. With the reserve met at a mere $999, today’s find may well be…

What Do You Call a Creeper That Hauls Ass?

We strongly recommend you take a look at this guy’s videos and the work he put into building this contraption ASAP. Why? Because it won’t be long before we hear about his untimely death and it’s all pulled from the web. But hey: not many better ways to go than a motorized creeper accident.

We’ve spoken before of our admiration for anyone insane brave enough to take on the challenge of rally racing; but there is a certain, higher level of admiration that is reserved for anyone who was willing to leap head-first into the old, legendary “Group B” racing class.

It's Not Just for The Nickels: LeMons Trophies!

comments
Jeff Glenn is not just high-ranking member of the LeMons ruling cabal, he’s also responsible for some of the best trophies in the Hooniverse. Honestly, it’s worth making the trip out to a LeMons race just to check these things out in person. The level of detail and absurdity of the parts involved surely merits…
