1969 Subaru 360 Sambar Van Microcar deluxe Description

Star of Lost in Transmission &Top Gear HostRutledge Wood TV STAR from Lost in Transmission and Top Gear was the mind behind this microcar. He signed the glove box.I was told by several people there are less than 200 of these on the road in the USA. Thesehardley come up for sale and are difficult to find. This particular van was the actual van on the show Lost in Transmission.
This Subaru has had, front disc brakes installed, chassis upgrade water cooled engine installed, for reliability and dependabiliy, Married to the engine the proper transmission. This will be a great car to putter around in and tinker on. Make this your weekend project to bring it to the next level. Fine tune and hone this van and make it one of the best surviving examples of these rare vehicles.
Micro cars are increasing in value. There are examples of these vans selling close to $30,000. Who knows what this one is worth having been on and part of a History Channel TV show. I have a friend that has one of these and gets more attention at car shows than the Laborgini parked next to him. These are great investments cute neat and get a lot of attention. Do not buy this van if you are shy and don't want to be noticed. Everywhere you go someone will ask what it is or tell you how they love it. People will want to take their picture with it.Register this van for the road title lost but VIN NUMBER K163L-4695(located behind a panel) Mnaurfacture Date 5/69. Apply for titlae and you will be the proud owner of one of the rarest vans on the road today. little over 10 thousand miles. watch the links attached

With some work this could be the neatest little van. Turning radius is limited.
Althought this runs and it drives I am selling it as non operable for safety reasons.Linkage that puts van gear was fabricated when they upgraded the engine and transmission with and electric switch and is really cool but the cable bracket is lose it needs to be aligned connected.
Feel free to ask any questions.
