I had fallen on some rough times and for some reason was living in a craphole near Aurora in Shoreline, WA.

Kinja'd!!!

One day, I roll out off of a dingy couch and make my way to my pickup. Someone had stolen my tailgate and replaced it with an ill-fitting 2nd-gen gate, in cherry red but with tons of rot like my first Tercel.

Later in the week, a coworker/friend is checking in on me, and asks what happened to the pickup. I look down... Someone had stolen my entire BED. I t was replaced with a black 3rd-gen that was beyond rusty and the guy had stomped it down for some shit-attempt at fitment. E very corner was crunchy and thin, like an aluminum can. I was at the lowest of lows.

Then I got distracted in my own dreams and began to budget for a flatbed:

Kinja'd!!! Kinja'd!!!

My subconscious, seemingly annoying by failing to crush my spirits with a sad-sack alternate reality, gave up and I awoke feeling well-rested.

Anyway... I don't often dream about cars but this was crazy vivid by my standards. I could touch and smell the actual rust. Extra crispy!

That second picture is an accurate representation of how every 8 0's Toyota truck looked around here ... In the early to mid 90's.

Yep. In the rust belt, that would've been junked by about'92.
