I was driving pops around as we started scoping out any potential small-sized pickup trucks for under 3k$ and stumbled upon a car show in its closing stages.

Mint, no mods, and it’s an automatic so it’s great to those Saturday-evening car show cruises.

Caballero~!

KING MOTHERFUCKING MIDGET

Ohio, home of shitty GM cars, and a NBA team that was way overdue for a championship.

Those are wheels meant for lawnmowers.

Fittingly, it’s powered by a 12 hp lawnmower engine!

That’s really all the gauges you’ll need in this thing.

Clean, but it’s only a 396/350hp with fully Flowmaster exhaust work.

Powerboat shifter!

It’s a NA6C! Originally red, painted purple by the PO. Base model to the MAX.

Unintentional but both our Miatas have MGY plates!

If y’all are still looking, I’ll keep a look out for small trucks here in Lexington county. Anything in particular standing out? Also, next weekend there is a car show in Ninety-Six, and it’s proximity to old money towns like Abbeville and Greenwood have my hopes up high.

Nissan D21 hardbody, Toyota Pickup/Hilux, Rangers, and S-10s. Has to be an extended cab with an automatic. Budget is realistically 2500$ or else we face the wrath of banker-mom.

I know where an extended cab D20 is... But it’s sitting there wasting away, as an I’ll get to it project, like the owners original ‘70 Mach 1... And ‘71 Mach 1... And nearly rust free ‘50's F100. It’s sad.

I’ll keep a lookout, the auto/extended cabs might make things more interesting. Small trucks are surprisingly popular around here.

Also, I hate how they changed the tags. The blue and orange would have completely matched my car.

Yeah, we’re looking for something that’s in good condition. It’s a bit of a challenge at such a low price. A lot of them are poorly-modified beaters or just plain abused with over a 1/4-million miles.

If extended cab wasn’t part of your criteria, there is what appears to be quite a clean ‘91 Ranger in Camden for $1500. http://columbia.craigslist.org/cto/5653585349…

Thanks, it’s not bad for a stock Galaxy S6 and basic MS Office 2010!
