Poor SC300! This is by far the best angle of it.

The hood is popped, and the utterly trashed driver’s seat had a bottle of antifreeze and a funnel on it. It’s 9 degrees outside this fine morning.

I actually asked the guy doing the inspection here in denmark what about rocker panel rust when i were gonna mount side skirts. he just replied it didn’t matter, cause it wasn’t visible. Then again, requiring you to drill out the rivets it’s held on with for an inspection would be insane..

As you might guess, we have no inspections in my state. I see cars like this or worse every single day. I thought this one being a forelorn SC300 made it photo-worthy.

That’s a good bit more rocker panel still there than my Lincoln.

And this is why the US scares me so much, road traffic wise.

Yeah, I guess I’m being too harsh by saying it’s gone. There’s a good half of it that’s still kinda there :)

The Lincoln, depending on if you count the inner wall/floor interface, is between 15% and maybe 30% there. At most. Maybe less by weight, because it’s multiple plates vertically and most are toast.

Years of old toyotas with that paint fade and that rust coming from behind.
