If you’ve seen one banana car you’ve seen ’em all… This monkey’s dream boat (banana boat?) is a 1989 Banana Car, or banana mobile, as the seller calls it. This unusual ride is on Craigslist in Johnstown, Pennsylvania with an asking price of $13,999, or around 23,332 pounds of actual bananas. To say that I’m into unusual vehicles is an understatement, but that usually just means 1970s and ’80s Japanese cars, battery-powered vehicles, preferably old ones, minibikes, and things like that. I’ve never had a strong urge to own a car shaped like a piece of fruit. Thanks to Barn Finds reader Jim Hindman for sending in this submission!

When researching a 1989 banana car, a person finds all sorts of things on the internet, some of which maybe shouldn’t be shown here. There were, of course, a lot of Bananarama images of the very 1980s band by the same name. And, one even showed a banana with 1989 printed on the bottom, which is pretty coincidental since this carb car (bananas are rich in carbohydrates) is also a 1989 model. The seller says that it’s Pontiac-powered, pushing this peel-mobile with a Pontiac Grand Am V6. They say “currently” it’s Grand Am V6 powered so maybe it has been under different power in the past. I can’t imagine a use for anything like this, but the seller has owned it since 1998 (!!) and it’s a fully street legal and titled vehicle. Come Mr. Tally man, tally me banana, daylight come and me wan’ go home.
