eBay Motors' finest, all right here. And don't forget to follow our eBay collection to see all the best Rides.
ICE "Hammered" Chopper
The level of detail on this bike is about as insane as you'll ever see. It took 2,000 hours to build, and the copper engraving is so intricate they actually took it to a tattoo parlor to find someone skilled enough to handle it. It's won shows and competitions around the world, and it's best described as "sick." [More pics...]
700 hp 1957 Jeep Willys Wagon
In the early 1990s, Off-Road Magazine experimented with making a hot rod Jeep that ran on something other than gasoline or diesel. They wound up with this: a 700 hp (!) 1957 Jeep wagon that runs on propane. The owner's got all the old magazines to prove it, too. Who said clean energy is boring? [More pics...]
Elvis's Custom 1972 Cadillac DeVille Station Wagon
Back in 1972, Cadillac made two really sweet DeVille station wagons, complete with 24 karat gold emblems and 24 karat gold wire wheels. This one went to Elvis, who used it (along with his many other Caddies) to commute back and forth from L.A. to Las Vegas, and the other one went to Dean Martin, and no one really knows what happened to it.

1949 Jaguar XK 120 Alloy
This car was great to begin with, and was then beautifully suped up. It started out life as a 1949 XK 120, which was the only year you could get the XK with a super light alloy body. Then it was brought up to the 1950s C-Type race car spec, with 300 hp and that epic double windshield, plus a bunch of other bits. You've gotta take a closer look. [More pics...]
1987 Porsche 928 S4
Reasons you should buy this car: 1) 928s are among the most underrated Porsches ever made, with 50/50 weight distribution and a 320 hp V8 up front, 2) the Risky Business scene where Tom Cruise dunks a 928 in Lake Michigan is one of the most classic scenes of the 1980s, and 3) It's probably way cheaper than renting Rebecca DeMornay and her friends for a week.

1986 Land Rover Defender Santana 88
This is pretty much the definitive old-school workhorse Land Rover. A torquey four cylinder diesel, manual transmission, and plenty of bench seating in back make this an excellent choice for hitting the trails, and it's been fully-restored, so you're not likely to get stuck. [More pics...]
1973 Ferrari 246 Dino GTS
This Dino was perfectly restored in 2007, and has the Ferrari factory's official stamp of approval to prove it. It's got an interesting story, too, having been bought new in San Francisco, but splitting much of its life between S.F. and Germany. It's got some autobahn tales. [More pics...]
