Hello,

I have always liked all the 360's. But, have never owned one. I'm in the market for a fixer upper. Pretty open to what kind. Van, Truck, or Sedan. Something that will take some years to complete with my daughter. I do have lot's of ads and facts and photo's. I like to collect that stuff also.

Thanks,
Spencer

Hi Spencer,

Welcome to the Club from downunder!

Look no further; you should find what you need on these forums... and of course in the "BOR" (Book of Reprints).
Time will show that a good majority of the contributors to this forum are informative, knowledgeable and above all,
somewhat quirky, but don't let that worry you, we're all here to help one another and so far it seems to be working...

Cheers,

Ian

Spencer, Welcome to the club. I might be overstepping my bounds but I was trying to get some parts from a super nice member from Brainerd, MN. 56401 for my sedans a year or so ago. She had a lot of parts and a couple fixable sedans. Not sure if she still has them and not sure how close you are to her but her name is Natalie Godfrey. You can click on members in the top right of this screen, go to the "N"s and select her name to private message her. Good luck with your search. I may have to part with a group famous Hippie 360 in the near future.

This is my flicker account address go to page 9 to see the hippie pics My daughter is the one with blond hair behind the 360. The rest is my collection of 360's except the yacht car.

Spencer- welcome to The Club! You may be able to get a WANTED ad in (always
free) the Sept. Newsletter, e-mail it to Brian, the member you sent your
membership info and check to. It will get to all 450+ member families, many of
them never check this message board but one or more might have a project
for sale.

Spencer Welcome to the club Your approach is a sound one, most of us get the 360 first then then join to find help & parts. :)

Hi Spencer,

Welcome. Since you collect info on the 360 you may have already been to my site, www.mysubaru360.com
There you can download all the manuals and the parts catalog, and be all geared up for when that 360 rolls your way.
Also, if you haven't gotten the link to the BOR yet, PM me.

Hope you find a nice project soon.
Steve

Welcome to the club mang!

I am in Duluth. Let me know if there is anything I can help you with.

Also, I used to live in Saint Louis Park, back behind the post office in the Rhode Island Estates apartments near the baseball field and the temple back there. Nice city for sure.

I'll keep my ears and eyes open up here. I guess there was a guy who used to own a BUNCH of them in the area, so there are bound to be a few floating around still. Maybe try a craigslist advert in the Duluth area?

But anyhow, welcome aboard from a fellow Minnesnowdan!
