Hello everyone!!! from the Golden State Northern California

#1 Post by matoner »

Hello all.
My name is Matthew and I have yet to be an owner of a 360, however I am very close to picking up a Sambar van. I am so excited, enough to shell out some membership fees to a very informative site on a car I don't even own (yet). I am currently and owner of a Forester XT, mildly modified. I am so anxious to get my hands on a Sambar. It was LIC and Subie Gal who inspired my attraction towards them. Having seen LIC's up close and personal, what a little awesome ride. Anyway, so there it is, if this transaction happens, you will all hear about it, with pics. I have been on the site the past day and boy will this be fun and challenging. I look forward to all of your wisdom and stories, thanks for having me aboard.

Matthew :D

did this work, here is a cell phone pic from seller

Welcome Matt. The welcome mat is out :roll: :lol: At this point the question is usually," We like Pics," so get something bought so we can see it! Wise on your part to learn about the 360s before buying. Good luck on finding the right one.

It has been very exciting.. I think am ignoring my animals. Thank you very much. I can;t speak on behalf of them, however I do know they are a highly rated shop so they are super busy. :)

I just did it... :)
Awesome. Hopefully, I will have the lil suby. I want to go pick it up now, but the guy is unavailable to meet me right now :cry: :twisted: :roll:

especially after all the reading I have been doing I can't wait to actually see the condition. He did disclose that the brakes needed to be fixed. I have seen a lot of write up over brakes, so I guess it's just par for the course. He said it is great shape body wise, except for some dent in the rear gate and no rust. He said he hasn't started it in a few months, and also removed the steering wheel to fix the blinker?? or something. Seemed like a really nice guy and excited to talk about it. I think he was happy I was really excited. I don't want to pester him, but...... ahgahagagahgahggah So it runs good, minimal if no rust and the body is in really good shape.. sounds good. :)

Thank you all for creating, supporting and keeping this place here for people like me who are in dire need of people like you. The deciding factor in getting this was because this place exists. boom.
