That truck was a bit fixed up. The removal of the roof really seemed to weaken it for that crash.
A work buddy of mine used to work for a crane company that had a small fleet of LUVs in the early '80's. He was hit by a big rig and nearly killed. Whenever I drove a LUV to work and he would see it, he would get a cold chill down his spine.

Look at the gas filler door.
The second pic has been flipped and makes it look like a RHD.
