HELLO FROM DOWN UNDER
I live in Melbourne Australia and have just purchased two 360 Right Hand Drive Sedans. A NSW (Australia) Subaru Wrecker (Breaker???) purchased them from Japan around 2 years ago.Both are complete cars, with MINOR rust (so far).
Plans are to restore both cars.
Many Thanks to Ed Parsil for all of his help to a newcomer.
Apart from the 360's, I am oficially retired, but work three days a week doing sales marketing work for a local Classic Sports Car specialist. Check out there website http://www.healeyfactory.com.au
As 360 cars were never oficially imported in to Aust, I am very thankful for the club and potential for advise and support.
Best Regards to All,
Ron Spencer

Hi Ron,

Welcome!

Wow, those 360's will be really rare there in Australia

What is a NSW? ( wrecking yard? )

Post some pictures if you could. We'd love to see what treasures you've got there.... from the land down under :lol:

PS. I rode my Mt. bike all around Melbourne in 1992. Nice place!

Hello Mark,
"NSW" is an abreviation for New South Wales, a state of Australia.
A "Wrecker" in this country is what I think you call a "Breaker" in the USA.The business owner only deals in later model Subaru's and brought these two cars from Japan (included in a parts shipment).
I thought I maybe had the only 360 cars, but have since located four others.
Two are restored, two still awaiting attention.
As soon as I know how, I will certainly send photo's.
(Going to ask Jamie for help).
Best Regards,
Ron S
