Toyota Supra



(Both photos by Leicestershire Vehicle Photography)

The third generation of the Supra, which was the first one not called "Celica Supra", was a nice sports car and the most expensive Toyota sold between 1986 and 1992.
The one in the pictures is from 1989 and has the most powerful engine that was available, which means it has 235hp for its 1550kg. So it only needs 6.3 seconds from 0 to 100km/h and has a top speed of 245km/h.
But obviously, this one has already been standing there for some years and would need some new tires, new paint and probably some work on the technical parts.
Then it would look like this one and would also be worth some thousand Euros again.

Dodge 600 Convertible


(Photo by The New Taxiguy)
Called Dodge 400 before, this model got a facelift in 1984 and was known as Dodge 600 from then on.
The car in the picture is from 1986, the last year the convertible version was built.
41400 examples of the convertible were sold, meaning they are not a common sight today.
Without visible rust, but with flat tires, the one in the picture is sitting between other abandoned cars.
Otherwise, it could look like this (couldn't find one with covered headlights, seem to be rare):
