Hi, My name is David Hinton. I bought my 360 2 years ago in November.
I went to school with the original owner that bought the car in 70. When I bought it, it hadn't run in 32 years. Spent most of it's life stored in a garage, the only miles it had on it in that 32 years was moving it around alot. Of course, no brakes, REALLY old gas, but only 14,567 miles.
It's a great little car, but it gets as much ridicule as it does looks. Most of my friends say it's the coolest car I've ever bought. I'd love to have a van too, but I already have WAY too many cars.

Welcome to the club David!
I'm sure you will find endless resources here to get that little bugger on the road.
Hope you don't plan to drive it all winter in Cedar Rapids! I know it gets pretty darn cold there. I renovated the Crowne Plaza there (Downtown Convention Center) a couple years ago, and I think it was -17 one morning! I was supposed to renovate the same hotel again this winter, but the hotel group I work with just sold the property.......darn :roll:
