No audio for me but it is a Toyota and I fully expected it to be driven in even after all that. :thumbs:

I bought a severely rolled 86 truck basically for the trans/transfer, this thing was toast. He just got it for his 16th birthday and it was pretty tricked out. He was fluffing his chest for his buddies in front of his house and was doing about 70 when a car backed out of a driveway right in front of him. He told me that he didn't even have time to get off the skinny, hit the trunk, went up and over then barrel-rolled down the street. It put him in a chair for life. I got it home put a battery in it, started cutting wires that were getting warm then fired that sucker up. I took the trans/transfer in my 84, put the motor in my 85, and used the IFS as a spare for my 4Runner. everything else was junk, but even after it barrel-rolled down the street at 70 it still fired right up. It did kinda look like that truck in the video and maybe even worse. About the only thing it didn't do was burn.

that poor truck! :rivers: i'd take it for parts tho, revive that motor and drive train (i'm really surprised the diesel was able to survive the ocean, since diesel's are so tempermental to water.)

I saw the show that originally aired that, and I was very impressed, but I started to cry at the same time!  My wife started to get worried about me crying!   :rivers:  A waste of a perfectly good truck! :headshake:

Absolutly amazing. didn't really surprise me that they continued to drive it, Just cool how creative they were in trying to destroy it.
