I love the combination of spray foam, duct tape and silicone holding the tail light.

LMAO!!   Must be someone like that in every town..  Just subtract a few buckets and add 14 foot 4x4's hanging out the back window of a late model Malibu and you got Kenny Elsasser..

This guy was stuffed into this car. I mean the drivers seat was just big enough for a driver. Thats it. A trash can was used as a wall to hold back the stuff cramed inside.

lol, that ones not even that bad josh.. you should see some of the hooptys they drive down here in clatsop county.. duct tape and spray foam are the easiest, and most common rust repairs down here..

you should see the creeper van that parks at fort clatsop, area A..

its a black chevy short van, and it is as crammed as you can get a van.. like josh said, just enough room for a driver..
92 Jetta GLI - Black, 1.6D w/ GT2056V turbo..
86 GTI - 4 Door, Med Twilight Gray, Tow Machine..
86 Audi Coupe GT - Tornado Red, All Stock.. WRECKED.
89 Toyota 4Runner - Dark Grey Metallic, LIFTED!

Turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster.
