Make, model, state, and first three would still likely be enough to identify the owner.

Add the description of the damage to the truck and Police could find it again even if it got away.

Assuming those plates aren’t stolen to begin with

Can't they just block the whole car? It's ugly as shit.

I'm pretty sure the Crown was not a US-market model, and it's hardly a coveted JDM enthusiast product like the Skyline, so there are likely only a handful in the state to begin with.

That really does not change the fact that it is ugly as fuck.

“In North America, the first through fourth generations were offered from 1958 through 1972, being replaced by the Corona Mark II.“

1973-2018 models (so fifth to fifteenth gen models) were not USDM. Honestly, I thought when Toyota announced the Crown replacing the Avalon this year, that it was a new vehicle. Guess I was mistaken. In fact, reading up on it, it was the first Japanese car ever sold in the US. Fascinating!

Come to Denver, where 1 in 10 cars don't bother with license plates and half are temp tags that are at least a year expired
