alright, i was on my way to work on saturday the 25th and an old guy blew a stop sign and i slid right into him. my car had to be towed away because all the coolant leaked out, but i only hit the other guy in his drivers side front wheel so he had VERY little damage. accident wasnt my fault so it will be fixed at his expense. im only 17, and i just bought a winter beater 88' f150 for $450 and cleaned it up a little so far. but it looks like ill be driving the beater sooner than i thought =/ plan was to park my ek for the winter anyway. well heres some pictures of the accident and my beater i picked up a couple weeks ago.

heres some pictures of the accident (front bumper, jdm fogs, hood, and the paint on the front bumper and hood were only a few months old)







and heres some pictures of my truck just picked up for $450. 1988 f150 with a 302, the only thing ive painted so far is the bed and took the rust off the wheels and gave them a spray too. im just going to give it a $50 spray can paint job. my plan is to sell it for more than i paid for it after winter and maybe boost my b16 or get a cheap bike. not bad for $450!


the badge is off of my ek, just slapped it on here for now


thanks for looking

Sucks about the Civic.

:thumbs up But I like the F-150!

You couldn't touch that truck for less than $1000 here. (Some Ford guys really like that old twin I-Beam, constant camber change front end :what: + MPFI 302! yep. that's a $2000 truck. )
