The Triation - Click above for high-res image gallery
Some creations out there defy description, walking the thin line between absurdity and awesome toed by the likes of the Volkswagen Type II flatbed and the Tatra T87. This is one such machine. Branded "Triation" by its wayward creator, this ride seemingly mates all the hatefulness of the Chevrolet Celebrity with a propensity for rollovers typically enjoyed only by the Reliant Robin. You see, the Triation uses a Celebrity's 2.5-liter four-cylinder to push itself down the road.
Why? You'd be better off spending your time pondering why there are no indigo skittles.
Along with three years of custom fabrication work, this project makes use of enough fiberglass to sustain the aftermarket body kit industry for posterity. The seller claims that the Triation has spent most of its life garaged since it needs a clutch. If the thought of fiberglass splinters and malaise-era reliability have you licking your chops, you'd better get on it. This machine is up to $4,700 with the reserve not met and a few hours left on the auction.
