Most of the time I'm driving around in this (front big bumper gone now).

Or then again I could be in a big dodge van with ALOT of rust on the roof!

When you buy used you don't get much choice if you're looking for a particular model. It just happened that they were pretty close in color.

Here's a pic of what I went north to MN for a month ago. It's pretty much a project but it'll get there eventually. The motor / trans from the blue 86 will go in this truck, which has a valve issue on cylinder #1 and a 4 spd trans. The prior owner had removed the rear window about five years ago and never covered it...something had been living inside it. The driver window had been down too, fallen off the rusty track. He did give me the back window and the grill / sidelights, but there's still a lot of stuff it needs. I'd post pics of the interior when I got it but they're really bad!

Behind you can see the Toyota truck and further, by the house the Peugeot 504 sedan and that's probably the jetta tdi next to it when these were taken.

Maybe, but it was a looooong trip to Battle Lake MN...and the seller was a yacker, so it took me three + hours to get out of there even with changing the rear wheels and ripping the frozen rear brakes out.

After looking at it more closely I came to the conclusion that it had been hit at some point, not bad, near the driver door and low. It was repaired but of course they never fixed the damage underneath very well and it rusted there and subsequently now there's a hole in the driver pan next to the seat rail that'll need to have new metal installed.
