Subaru 360 micro van project

[cali yaris]

Got this micro about 3 months ago, it was in storage for 22 years before that.
Runs great now, been getting parts rechromed and collecting to make it 100% complete.

356cc two-stroke motor!

I'll be at the Japanese Classic Car Show on Sept. 10 in Long Beach -- really cool car show if anyone likes this sort of thing.

Anyways, just sharing my latest little project:

Nice, I'll be there! How were you able to find this gold nugget?!?!

I saw a few of these for the first time at last year's JCCS. There was one for sale in the show and it actually sold at the event.

it looks amazing.

That's cool. How about a size comparison shot, so we can see how micro it is.

You need to contact subie gal on nasioc. She has a super clean red one.

^ She's on the 360 Drivers Club forum. I would not have got these running without their help.

She had just bought the red one (subsequently named "Stanley"), was on her way home with it, and "stopped by" the JCCS show last year. Grabbed a trophy and continued on her way -- lol!

This is how big it is:

I love her picture with hers being towed behind her forester. Great show of size

I wonder if there is an A-Team version out there somewhere.

I wonder if there is an A-Team version out there somewhere.

seems more suited to a Mystery, Inc paint job :D
