Subaru 360 micro van project
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:

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.

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

^ 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!
