What can we say, we like oddballs here at Truck Trend. Editor Jason Gonderman’s’80s-era diesel Ranger should be testament enough to that.

At its January 2016 auction in Kissimmee, Florida, Mecum Auctions is auctioning the only “Corphibian” ever produced. Based on a 1961 Corvair 95 Rampside pickup (a relative oddball in and of itself), the Corphibian was a joint effort between Chevrolet Engineering and the Hulten-Holm Company of Pontiac, Michigan.
