Hello to the Subieowners and admirers. We have taken the plunge with the New Hampshire 360 Van this past week on Ebay. We are in the process of arranging shipping. this club is such a great resource of information!

Bev and I started our Microcar obsession with a 1967 BMW Isetta cabrio in 2004 and have been to meets of the micro car group in Mass with the Goulds, GA at the Weiner Museum and Microsouth with the Pauls...loved his 360vans.
We also have been working on a Honda s800 coupe we bought in 2005 and are now enjoying drives in that too.

will try to post some pics, Rob

A big warm welcome to you. I'm glad you finally made on board the forums, sorry for the administration entrance delay. I know that must have been frustrating. This is a great group here and you will find the Subaru 360 information very pertinant and rewarding. We are all anxious to see pictures of your newly purchased pristine van.

I thought I recognised your ID name Rob! You have posted many a time to the "Just-S" discussion group, yeah? It's Ian in Western Australia here... green S600 Coupe. Great to see you've found this forum and congrats on getting a Subaru van - you'll have heaps of fun! Welcome to you and Bev from downunder.

We love pics, so hurry up! :D


Cheers,

Ian

Hi Rob,

Welcome to the club! Congrats on your new van! As you have seen, many folks here were tracking that ebay auction for your new van - it's a really nice example.

You are probably already set up with all this, but you can find all the manuals on my site at this page... http://mysubaru360.com/manuals_and_documents/

Also, if you haven't gotten the "secret URL" to download the BOR yet, PM or email me and I will get it to you.

Best of luck,
Steve
