dirty deeds' deeds, done dirt CHEAP! and dirty vibes

Y'all wanna see what happened to another one of my firsts? Which this truck is also a first for me being a Toyota and 4x4.

This first of all firsts, vehicle related, is also white too.

 

always well maybe not always

 

Ahh an old ford ranger knock off What happened to it ?

 

That truck was a hotrod man! I never got around to modding it. All I had done before I wrecked was put 6x9s in the rear. Luckily, able to recover them and the rest of the stereo that was still in boxes to be installed.
Happened during break when I came home from college for Christmas, about 2 PM on Christmas Eve.

 

What happened?

 

I know I had a V8 Dakota.

 

Damn son!!! Glad you're alright!

 

Was coming up on a 'narrow' bridge, plenty wide enough for 2 decent size vehicles to pass. Someone driving in the middle of a 2-lane road, I corrected to avoid head on. Dropped pass side wheels off the road, not enough clearance to get back up on the road. Before I knew it, I watched the yellow bridge sign disappear in front of me then felt a massive impact. Blacked out, came too in my truck, crushed under the roof, facing the opposite way I was driving.
The bridge only had about 1' tall concrete walls either side, no guard rails. The wall was just tall enough to catch the giant piece of plate across the bottom that protects the steering components, flipped ass end over head, landed upside down on the side of the bridge crushing the roof on my head, neck, and right shoulder. Then rolled off the bridge and somehow landed on my wheels in the water.
The wheel you see in the bed still had the shock and all components attached, it was laying up on the road. The dash was in my lap, glass embedded all over. Had my seatbelt on at least.
Asshole that ran me off the road didn't even stop.

 

My lord man!!!

 

He was watching me, for sure!

 

Glad your able to tell us. wow

 

Glad you're okay. I had an asshole hit me head on in the middle of nowhere back in the day. Coming that close to death gives you an appreciation for life.

 

Absolutely it does!

 

So, I think I'm going to scour some junk yards and see if there are any wrecked trucks I can salvage parts from. Hoping I can find some factory fogs, maybe skids off a TRD.

 

Holy shit, man, you look miserable in that last picture but I'm damn glad you're okay.

 

That was the following morning or the next, don't remember exactly haha, concussions.

Thanks

 

First thing I did to mine! Now time for lift and skids

Subd also OP, good looking truck
