Fully blue printed imitation vinyl carpet combined with two fibreglass nine inch diffs welded together to make an 18 inch diff combined with a 4 bolt rotating fibreglass crankshaft. Engine brakes locked on for a great exhaust note all the time! (Instead of just through small towns at night!)

No Synchromesh! Two Speed Tri-matic Powerglide! A Top Secret prototype built in partnership with Chevrolet and Holden – built on a Camira chassis!
The US had been building larger versions of Australian designed cars for many years. For example the 1957 Chevrolet Belair was almost an exact copy of the 1962 FB Holden Special.It is not well known that the V8 engined Belair had only six working pistons, the remaining two pistons could not be produced within the allocated budget. Chevrolet had already produced their new 3D chrome V8 badge and were too embarrassed to change it after they realised that the cost of producing an actual V8 with 8 operational cylinders was going to be far too expensive. It was decided that six cylinders would be enough and hardly any one would notice. Some rattling noises could be heard from two conrods slapping around inside the engine block.

Welcome to the parallel universe world of Mongrel Mobiles. The way your favourite car could have or should have been built. It’s like genetic cloning except we use the wrong, dodgy DNA… DNA with one too many chromosomes… or not enough! Have you always wanted either a Mustang or a Corvette but could never decide? Ever wondered what your Monaro would have looked like in the 1950’s? Neither did we, however we’ve built, photographed and framed them for you.

When you check out some of the great features that Mongrel Mobiles Cars have, you’ll wish you had them on your car:
Leaf springs all around, for a great smooth ride. No need for a spare tyre as there is not enough room! Optional Tri-matic Tiptronic Powerglide. Chevrolet Corvair rear suspension and handling! Due to manufacturing cost restraints, all cars come with a non-colour coded roof. The roof itself is not included.
Two fixed axles with two unlimited slip diffs and one really unlimited slip diff for great handling in the wet. WARNING: Piston firing order may randomly vary a bit. No synchro three speed tiptronic column shift. One tonne grocery carrying capacity! Non-independant suspension and glovebox. NOTE: passenger may be required to operate flammable secondary gearbox.
Available in left hand or right hand drive – or both! Two Ford nine inch diffs welded together to make an 18 inch diff! Options available include windows and front brakes. Some parts may not be authentic and may or may not be made of fibreglass. Avoid driving in the rain or bright sunshine or cloudy conditions. Smaller engine available if forward vision is required. Doors are welded shut for easy access.
Options shown here not included in base price: brake pads (please check before driving) heater, door skins, steering arms, headlight bulbs and crankshaft. Designed for going to the tip or the theatre. Radio tuned suspension. Ford Pinto fuel tank. Randomly collapsing steering column. Converted from 12 volt to 6 volt to save weight! Air bags may or may not be operational (or fitted). Please check during accident.
