Hello, 360 forum !!

#1 Post by SEEaDDS »

Just added a 1970 Subaru 360 AutoClutch to the collection. I am in the Chicago area. I will post a picture when I figure out how it is done.

Welcome Joe, we've actually met. You gave me a reproduction Messerschmitt emblem you made with dental impression tools. Jim of the Microcar News Magazine and I visited your home collection way back in 2006 or 2007. We both bought out Schmitts from the same lot of 1st 10 Bruce let go of. My Grandmother still lives in Skokie. You are the 1st one on this forum that we know of with a WORKING autoclutch. Congrats! I had a gearbox from one that I stole the coveted 3.4:1 final drive out of for my hot-rod Scorpion 360 sedan.


Again welcome!

Welcome Joe! You will find all the help you need here, and maybe even some you didn't ask for, but it will all be to help you in making your 360 the best it can be. Looking forward to the pics!

Joe, tutorial for posting pictures is in introduction section.


I almost forgot, you gave me the quartz clock for my Messerschmitt back during my visit as well.

Here it is from way back when:



Thanks!

Mark,
I wish I would have picked up that entire lot of clocks. They sure fit perfectly in the Messerschmitt opening !! Thanks for the photo posting lead. I have not been on here much since joining a couple days ago.

Nice storage facility Joe, can't quite make out the bike brand though. The weather looks a little cold in your neck of the woods. Glad I'm in the NW where we just have rain on the streets.

Good looking SUBIE!

Looks like my old Yamaha CS150. If this is your living room, I'm really liking the idea... we'll see what my wife says about it...
