So, um, Mooch, so far the only one that really looks like a "beater" is Goutless' red beast with the custom 2x4 rack (sorry Mike).  :smt002

Old school Bronco? Classic & looks to be in pretty good shape...
Joe's old topless Scout? Looks pretty clean...
Toyota Pickup with 220K miles? Find one on every corner!  :smt001

Let's see some serious jalopies - you know, rusted out floors to aid with the Flintstone braking; different color doors & hoods from the junk yard; cardboard windows; red-taped tail lights; duct tape; Bondo; primer; maybe even some custom body modification courtesy of Sawzall! 

I'm sure all these vehicles have been around the block a few times,
but where are the cars that look like they've just limped home from battle :smt062 :smt068
or obviously made it through some wild days & nights of a misspent youth :headbang:
or simply survived the sixties?!! :hippy2:

Yes  :smt001 and no  :smt009.  Didn't catch anything...I'm going to post a report as soon as I upload the rest of the pics, but the short story is I got skunked.

You are correct, perhaps I should just change the subject line to: "Post your Official Kayak Carrier"  :smt002

Mooch, all in good fun - it's a good thread. Most of us wouldn't be able to get to to the water w/out our yak carriers, beaters or not! Looks like this sparked some more action on this thread - 3 more added since yesterday.

Here's mine, '89 toyota pickup with 260,000 miles.

Right on! 260K, do I hear 270...270...270?
So far we have 220K & 260K on a Toyota p/u;
There's gotta be higher-mileage ones out there.
Mine only has a mere 205K...  :smt001

It'll take me a few more years, but I have an '01 4Runner with 153,000 (mostly fishing) miles on it.

I started kayak fishing to get away from most of you...
