$Free.99: 1960 Studebaker Lark Project

Free car! Who can argue with that? Not this guy, or anyone else who has an ounce of adventure and optimism running through their oil-soaked veins. It's not often we find a car that someone wants taken off their hands for a song, yet also cool enough to feature. This little Lark is one of those unicorns, although it will need a heavy application of dedication to get it back on the road. Find this Free 1960 Studebaker Lark in Rocklin, CA via craigslist. Tip from Terry B.

0k: Free To A Good Home: 1989 Volvo 244


The current owner of this car "violet" (the car's name, not the owner's) acquired it to use as a 24Hrs of LeMons car, but is now in over his head.  The previous owner chimed in on the forums and mentions the car just stopped running on the highway and hasn't moved on her own power since.  Rear window is busted and interior is shot...but..hey...free car...right?  Find this 1989 Volvo 244 sedan offered to a good home in Stamford, CT via 24hoursoflemons.com forums.

0k: There Is Always A Price: 1963 Chevrolet Corvair Spider Monza Turbo

First off, lets start with a disclaimer that this may be a scammer....is likely a scammer...heck it definitely is a scammer.  Seriously, no one gives stuff away , at least nothing of value.  Perhaps you'll find a few free phone books (remember the yellow pages...I can remember thinking we'd never be able to live without that tome like it was yesterday) or some broken Ikea furtinure on the sidewalk, but free cars...yeah...that always come with a price.  Find this 1963 Chevrolet Corvair Spider Monza Turbo for free in Calgary, Alberta, Canada via kijiji.ca.  As seen on oppositelock.jalopnik.com from DEMON-XANTH.
