They were selling beer out of the other side and the other I think was selling ice cream. They were kinda cool for being "food trucks" but I guess maybe they're actually a building? I don't know..

That makes two of us. It looks to be a Toyota. Whatever it is it's cool.

Kind of reminds me of Tim's Baja Bus.

not sure which brand, but there's one of these critters I see in the power plant in seal beach.. I'll try to remember to snap a picture next time I see it..

I don't know what make that first one is. Daihatsu? Every few years I'll see a passenger vehicle made by Daihatsu. There sure aren't that many, but they must sell them here somewhere. I've never seen a dealership. Maybe they sell them at the heavy equipment dealerships.

My sister moved her family to Idaho in the early-90s. They bought one of those Toyota Tercel 4wd mini vans. Pretty unique for the time as well as ahead of it's time. But damn was that thing funky looking? Reminded me of the vans they'd drive in those tacky Japanese monster shows like Gigantor or Ultra-man. But I think they were driving Corvair Vans!

I like the funky look of it. If I had money burning a hole in my pocket I would bid on this one ... https://carsandbids.com/auctions/rN0...gon-exceed-4wd

Killer Bee · 09-21-2022, 11:02 AM

the first one I posted is not only a Mitsubishi, it is the very same one CG posted without the roof rack

**FleetsidePaul** · 09-21-2022, 04:37 PM

The reason that you don't see Daihatsu's is that they were overpriced. They had a reputation as being well built cars and priced them too high. And they were ugly as sin. Nobody bought them. Hyundai had the right idea with those POS Excel's. That got their foot in the door in the US market. Really low priced cars. Now they're beating Toyota. Very smart marketing if you ask me. You can't pick up chicks if you can't get into the party. Hyundai got in and Daihatsu went away.

Maybe they were better. But they were ugly. Might as well buy a Yugo.

Sorry I didn't take this pic. I haven't been overseas in a while. Just an example.

Woah! I wouldn't have thought that their mouth parts were tough enough to eat nuts.

mr.mud1 · 09-25-2022, 12:04 PM

just when you think you've seen it all,or most of it,this comes along?

72c20customcamper · 09-25-2022, 12:08 PM

Don’t think you’d buy a rust free 68 fender for that now.

**special-K** · 09-25-2022, 12:51 PM

Wooja take 5? If you paid more than 10 you got beat!

Went to an antique truck show yesterday. Last week I went to C&O Canal Dam #5, on the MD side of the Potomac where the canal is. I wanted to check out Dam #4 on my way home. I decided since I was on the WVA side I'd explore my way to see the powerhouse side.

Palm trees by the RR tracks going up in flames as we drove by. My son thinks it was started by” hobos” cooking a can of beans over a campfire

Hobo's?

I haven't heard that term in years. We used to call them bums. Which coincidentally is what my ex wives called me and I wasn't even cooking beans.

If the weather gets hot enough, their is some kind of palm tree that will ignite all on its own. When I lived in Canoga Park, a row of them next to the 101 fwy was set on fire intentionally by the FD to make sure that they didn't go off unexpectedly. Yet another long commute home.
