Roadloans scours the internet to find news pertaining to car loans and auto loans for people with poor credit. We are also interested in all things cars, especially when it is interesting or ridiculous. In what category would you place the following? A man paid $217,800 for a restored 1963 VW Bus. It certainly is interesting, but I will go with ridiculous. Needless to say the car loan situation for a vehicle like this has to be pretty unique.  You might have a hard time finding a 1963 anything in one of Roadloans thousands of preferred dealer lots, but who said you can't dream? Of course we are talking about a VW Microbus, so if the Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo is dreaming to you, then be my guest and dream away.  But don't dream for long. There is a much more sensible scenario with Roadloans. Apply online for a car loan today and get preapproved for a car loan in minutes! Check out the article from Jalopnik right here. 

 

Imagine being on a car lot where the salesman says, "I think I've got just the right car for you."  He walks you past the Fords and the Chryslers, past the SUV's and sedans, and shows you a car that looks like a giant copy machine on wheels.  What you won't do is think about how you can fit your entire family into it, because there is no "into" to speak of. "Onto" is a better word.  But what you will do is marvel at the fact that before you is the world's oldest running car.  Also known as "la Marquise," this ancient machine wouldn't know what to do with gasoline, running on coal, wood and paper instead...sort like Mr. Fusion from Back to the Future.  Anyways, if you were considering a car loan you better have good credit....really, really, really good credit, because this baby was slated to auction for $1.5-2 million back in 2007.  I wonder if they have car loans for people with bad credit at this level of the game? 

Here is some more on the world's oldest running car.

 

Take a stroll down memory lane to Retrobrick, and see how things were "back then" in the day of the old school mobile phone.  Its amazing how far we've come.  I remember my dad's car phone...a giant monstrosity bolted down to the middle console of his Ford Explorer.  We were the coolest kids on the block because we could...*GASP*...talk while driving!
