Beat em' up Truck picture post

I would love to see pictures of beat up Toyota trucks that still run and drive (or not).





Leafs from same truck


And Rust


It's a shame, the interior was mint, V6 SR5 5 spd 4WD, all the power options...






Yeay for my once-bent frame!

Here is my truck a few weekends ago when my dad and I tore off the old rust bucket bed and put on a mostly rust free one I found:

Here is our plow truck. Still runs great and drives decently. Plows snow like theres no tomorrow.

The frame has broken on it I think 3 times now but we just weld it up. One day its gonna have a completely rebuilt frame haha.

Perhaps the most famous of all Toyota trucks, a testament to what these things can really do.

and, my favorite part: It's beat to SHlT.

Nothing wrong with that. I have an R-Title too, though I bought it with a bent frame. Got it straightened for free though at college, so it's all good.

JamesD at least the hood and roof and glass is all nice. And I have the same wheels on my 82. And if you do want to make it look pretty again my dad had the same thing to work with and his looks like it came from the showroom now.

This I would love to hear about. My '86 doesn't look that bad, but if someone can get showroom out something worse I'm all ears.

Thats why they made skis for the plane. We just don't have enough ice on the lakes yet to be on them other than in the bays. We have about 9 inches on our bay but the main lake only has about 4 so far. The plane can go on less than 6 but dont want to chance it with something like it. That picture was taken a little more than a week ago and we are nowhere near the cold stage of winter yet. Its only been down to -30 so far. Its gonna be fun when its -60 at night. Doesn't happen often but when it does the old old trucks are the only ones to start unplugged. And I'll see if I can find some pics of my dads truck. Its a 91 and he had to make the bottoms of the rear fenders and the rockers and cab corners.
