Back roads beauty

[Hilux]

The cool gems you find on the back roads, I went up to the fish hatchery to watch the Salmon getting harvested and decided to take a road I have never been on and found this beauty.
It looks like an 85 or newer square body 1 ton 4x4 flat bed with a 6.2 diesel.

How much rust is up by you? Any chance the frame is good or would you wager it is rusted out pretty badly?

It looked pretty solid, cab corners looked rus free, and the frame looked good, it looks to be a ranch truck as the tags say 2010 I think.

We don't use salt on the roads here on the Oregon coast, but the salt air if you live near the beaches will get you, I live probably 500 yards inland and that truck was about 6 miles inland.

How big is the radio screen?

Depends on the year of the Lund catalog it was bought from.

Same but different, spotted at a random small home in the Big Bear Lake, CA area! Not quite backroads, but rural enough! We’re thinking it’s a 1930 Ford Model A? Not quite sure without seeing the front.

*edit: there was also a really clean LR Defender my wife got a picture of but forgot to send to me. I’ll post that when I get it she was a beaut!

 

[Saddle Tramp]

That is definitely a Model A with the Rumble Seat. The Owner of the car wash I worked at lifetimes ago had quite a few of them. Can't wait to see the LR.

This thing looks to be original or restored to original condition! I love these old things.

A Toyota with the lichen option.

A very rusty but still used square body at the marina.

Both of those rigs are super cool!
