Rusty, Dented, Beater PIC THREAD

I love looking through the pic thread, but damn if all those trucks don't look so much nicer that what I have! Lets get a pic thread going for all those less-than-perfect Runners and Pickups.

Here in the northeast, The rust I've got going on is not THAT bad. Both wheel wells are like this, bumpers got more holes than swiss and the tailgate is dented. Just rebuilt the top end and she runs like a champ!

That runner looks mint compared to a lot of them up here. If you want beat trucks, check the "raisin toyota" thread on pirate.

Heres my raisin.

where I belong

Poorly applied and peeling liner on the body, tiger haired quarters, multicolored, rusty. Just plain old beat by PO's. Came to me 75% and I put it back together after year and a half. Runs great and I don't have to worry about it.

NICE THREAD!!
This is where the properly "used" trucks go! I love the "raisin toyota" looks kinda badass lol. Nice to see some other keeping it real with patina look lol

I have a couple pics of "The Mule" its the most abused truck around here... Highway, Mud Bogs, Hill Climbs, Trails, Hunting, Firewood... Dont have any rocks to crawl on so im missing out there..

Almost got a fine for no mud flaps... Turns out floor mats are multi-purpose

Leaving camp this year, not a trophy... But MEAT!!

Nice to see trucks well used! I knew I wasn't alone. My 86 f-150 is way more beat up than my runner...but I don't know how welcome that is on this site

That's a good looking pup cookie.

O I don't off road it! Just drive it. Picked it up cheap and honestly, that old straight six is the toughest, most reliable motor I've ever owned.

This is not mine, and I have nothing to do with it. I found this for sale on Craigslist, it has been removed. What not to do to your Toyota...

Hahaha Thanks , unfortunately its a home-made bumper. If anyone is really motivated i could take some pictures and measurements so it could be recreated. Anyone with a welder, 1.5" tube benders and some pipe could make it.

Bswarm, that is one neutered Yota, and definitely takes the cake on the "worst" Toyota in the thread so far

I see stuff like this all the time in San Diego, also 4x4s that are lifted to the sky and never see a dirt road. My first car (62 Buick Lesabre) got more off road air time than most trucks around here.

I suppose the vehicle mentality around here could be alot different from other places, but lowering pickup (Especially a 4X4) is making a perfectly functional truck into a useless heap of metal.

Also yes, you're right, a "Pavement Princess" is always good for a laugh ;P

I saw those lame bullet hole stickers... so i figured i would do it up right hahaha. Turns out a .45ACP makes some decent sized holes in tin
