Kilo Lisp: A Kilo Byte-Sized Lisp System
Just found one after replying to another comment on this story.
https://github.com/ioccc-src/winner/blob/master/1989/jar.2.c (accompanying explanation: https://github.com/ioccc-src/winner/blob/master/1989/jar.2.h... )
It apparently works somewhat after a few minor tweaks.
Another one that I've bookmarked some months earlier: https://github.com/rui314/minilisp
- minilisp: A readable lisp in less than 1k lines of C.

Learn C and build your own Lisp (2014)
It teaches bad C, and more importantly bad Lisp implementations.
Compare to a good and small Lisp instead. It need not to be "Lisp in Small Pieces", rather your typical lisp in 10 days or in 1K project.
