4 donor bodies? Were Subaru 360's common in New Zealand ? There is a picture posting tutorial here someplace if you are having trouble. You know we'd like to see your beauties !

2stroketurbo

awesome ! New Zealand ? wow. I spent some fun time there back in the 90's backpacking on my Mountain bike. Where part are you from? I wonder if you may have a Japanese RHD 1968 360 or 450 with a plastic rear window

Driver door does not fully close looks like the previous owner had the door hinged welded bad alignment. Im going to have my friend paint th...

I was able to salvage the brake lines and ditched replacing the old cylinders. After cleaning the brakes I was able to determine that brake shoes has still a good lining on them.

Hi Guys, My name is Garen from Simi Valley, CA I Just joined this group recently as I bought a 360 Young S car last month. Many of you probably saw it listed on e-bay and other sites. Couldn't resist getting it. I'm a DYI also and like working on car projects. Never seen so much effort put into thi...

Hello my name is Khalid, I'm from Palm Springs CA currently working on my brothers 360 Sedan with OT. The car is running but it needs brakes. I'm going to replace all the wheel cylinders and brake lines. So far I noticed the wheel bearings aren't rolling easily. Another problem is that my rear pass...

Hi Jerry We may have talked on the phone recently ? I recall a conversation about a truck on the coast. I will have a gas tank from a van that is rusty, but better than nothing, as it may be fixable. I believe the truck tanks are the same as van, and I am Semi Local to you. here is the meet info Ed ...

Wow! great news, I think this is Del's old car from remote central Wa? Welcome Schmitty I follow your You Tube Channel, You have some nice stuff.

2stroketurbo

Great input! I only considered the upgrade because this engine is SO tiny! But that is half the character of the vehicle as you guys said- so I will work with what I have. I am sure it will not disappoint :D I think I would love to upgrade the engine, but keep in original. ! case in point zqxNWhQgW...

All this warm welcoming and members from California sunshine state is UV overload making the moss under my ears dry out. Welcome from your neighbor state of rust on the top side !

Welcome to the club. Subaru 360 Vans with flames are super cool !

2stroketurbo

I wonder if that price includes the internal parts? I heard a rumor they only sell cylinders complete now due to liability

2stroketurbo

WhitePost seems to quote about 750 to rebuild all 6 cyls, and the master. Anyone have any experience with something cheaper? What should I expect to pay for shoe relining, and is there a good vendor for that? Is there a cross reference for seals? I am slowly pulling it apart, and sand blasting and ...

whoop. if your gear shifter knob does NOT have OT or 4th then you most likely have a 1968 3 speed car

Early 69's had plastic rear windows as well. My guess is that he may have a right side directional stalk as well I'm not sure what directional stalk means. Does that mean turn signal? I'm trying to see if I have some pics of the inside of the car to even look. I was trying to get it cleaned up befo...

White Post is very spendy! Look for a cheaper resleever. (Maybe the one in Upland, CA .... can't remember the name.) Look on the lock for a number (like F650.) Then put a note here asking for the number of the key you need. If that is unsuccessful, any good locksmith should be able to make what you...

Hi Rob, Wow. That Florida Ocean air really corroded your Subie. Do you have a plastic rear window? is this a 1968 three speed car? I believe all 69-70 Sedans had glass rear windows. Maybe take some interior shots to confirm. Welcome to the club! We'll help you get it on the road and to the show circ...

2stroketurbo

Glad to see someone bought this one. I made them an offer, but they were sticking to the asking price, so I passed. Probably better that I didn't buy it since I already have three other projects going already. When you get it running, we should hang. I'm in Los Angeles. Oh by the way, the interior ...

I've admired his stuff, keeping the car almost original, but adding fine touches. Perfect plan for your 360 ! I'd actually like to drill holes in my Subaru 360 door handles like he did. That' so cool. I think all of here on the club forums would support you, probably end up competing with you in the...

Very nice. Racing stripes look fast !

Hi Andy, glad to see you made it on the forums. We've already chatted on FB. I'm glad to hear you're going to save the little car as is. Smart move. The advent of Wiseco pistons really changed my perception of what these little engine can endure.

2stroketurbo

Congrats, you are getting busy already !

2stroketurbo

welcome! It always intrigues me that people associated with the fastest most powerful cars like Nascar love Subaru 360's

2stroketurbo

Hi Rob
I'm surprised your Vespa 400 has not been reliable for you, but then, I watched the fella with the white one drive his all over. My Vespa VW is dead nuts reliable, however it is not stock. I actually wanted to put it back to stock.

That van used to belong to Mort Smith. Don Harper customized it in the 80's. It used to sport scooter front tires an expansion chamber, reed valves of some type.

Picked up an ElectraVan. I'll still be on the lookout for a 360 van, but I think we'll have fun with this. I'll get more pics up once it warms up here a little, and I can take it out and play. http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq360/moabbuzz/ElectraVan/IMG_20131205_143040_zpsdb3dbb0b.jpg These EV'...

2stroketurbo

Yes. you are doing it right !!

2stroketurbo

Thanks everyone, I'm looking forward to having a 360 to mess with. I've owned and restored quite a few old cars, but these look like fun, and I think are perfect for cruising around town. Here's a few of my past and current rides. http://i463.photobucket.com/albums/qq360/moabbuzz/1977%20MG%20Midget...

New to the site. I'm currently looking for a 360 Van to buy, restored or restorable.

If anyone knows of one, let me know.

Hi Gary,
Welcome!, be patient and one will find you.

2stroketurbo

I'd agree with Roger 100% above except, I think this van is worth less, as in $ 1500. or so, I bet it's got rust.

2stroketurbo

This is the best place to look for a van, all the active members scour the sales mediums for you already, just stay tuned. Welcome to the club.

Hi fellow efficiency/cutie nuts: My first post: Ive been looking for 360 for two years and finally bought the white/rust ElectraVan that was on eBay in Sept. Called a 360/600 by seller.
