Matchbox Releases 1st Generation Toyota 4Runner Toy
Matchbox recently suprised us by releasing a 1st generation Toyota 4Runner to it’s lineup. The new 4Runner toy is a great copy of the 1985-1989 Toyota 4Runner. The toy colors and striping are very close to those of the original and the tires are proportional to the vehicle size, unlike the Matchbox size toys with monster truck tires. However, the chrome interior leaves a little to be desired. What do you think? Would you pick one up if you saw it at the local store?
1980 Subaru Brat For Sale
Once again, Bring A Trailer has found another oddity for sale. While a 1980 Subaru Brat may not seem odd or rare to some, it is definatly something that you do not see every day here in Canada! I think most of them have rusted away. This particular Subaru Brat is in great shape and has already hit the reserve price on Ebay. It still has the original stickers under the hood, not to mention the spare tire on top of the engine! So, do you want this Subaru Brat as much as I do?

Restored 1969 Ford Bronco For Sale
This 1969 Ford Bronco is for sale in Michigan. At first, the $19,900 price tag may seem like a lot of money. However, when you look closer, you can see that the restoration is well done and probably cost more than the asking price. The original dealer paperwork is included, as is the original warranty card! There is more photos on the selling dealers website. Via ClassicBroncos.com

For Sale: 1968 Kaiser Jeep M715 Truck
I know a lot of our readers love the older military trucks. This 1968 Kaiser Jeep M715 truck appears to be in pretty good shape for the $5500 asking price. It was overhauled by the US Goverment in 1973, but there is very little information about its use after that. The truck is for sale in Utah by Boyce Equipment. Thanks to Bring A Trailer for finding it!

1982 AMC Eagle SX4 Rally Car Project For Sale!
AMC Eagles are a bit of a rarity these days. I know there is a cult following among them, with people putting V8’s in them and lifting them. I can imagine those guys are going crazy over this former Gene Henderson 1982 AMC Eagle SX4 rally car. An Amc Eagle rally car is just plain cool because it is ugly, rare to see and…well…just because it is! A mild AMC 390 has been shoe horned in. Check out the love/hate relationship that Bring A Trailer readers have with the car, as well as the original Craigs List ad and the sellers photo album. While I know it was originally built to be a rally car, I keep on wondering how it would do at the NORRA 1000 vintage off road race in Mexico in May?
