A what was I thinking purchase!!
This was a what was I thinking purchase, and makes me laugh now . Back in late 70's I purchased not one but two Subaru 360's. Not sure the motivation, but perhaps because they were unrestored and low mileage (both had under 7k miles). I know I was interested in unrestored cars because I owned my first which was a 67 marina blue Corvette at the time. Ironically they were purchased at a import car wrecking yard next to the iconic K&G speed shop (corner of Eagle & Lawrence rd. in Havertown, Pa)

“The little Sue-barr-ru... wow.” “Cheap and ugly”, but did it “make you happy?” And did you go where big cars couldn’t go?

Not so much!!! I got them running and drove them around the neighborhood. I never registered them and once I was transferred from Pa to Ny I sold them. I didn't even know how to shift them, they had auto stick shift and had to depress the shifter knob down as you moved into the next gear ( I learned that the hard way). Published 0-60 times 22 -30 seconds. A very dangerous car to take on any roads with speeds over 40mph.....

Reminds me of the old Renault Dauphines back in the 60's. Nobody ever owned only one, you had to have one or two 'extras' to use for parts.
