New member from Snohomish, WA!

#1 Post by SubyCruiser »

Brand new member. I got the 1969 360 sedan from gregw. It's on its way up from MS. Fingers crossed that it will arrive sometime next week.

We recently went to a car show in Snohomish, and there was a couple there with a van that was in incredible shape, and we instantly knew we had to find a 360. Would love to reconnect with them if anyone knows who they are.

What a great forum! Just starting to dive into all the manuals, tech. bulletins, etc. I was an auto mechanic in a previous life, but I can tell this car will be a bit of a learning curve for me.

Welcome to the club. In the imortal words of my nephew when I bought the first two 360's. "What in the world did you buy those for?" Welcome to the madness. If you want to mod yours and need to get rid of some of those nice unused parts let me know. :lol:

Welcome to the club from Sumner, WA. You might have seen Jamie's van, she lives up your way. If not hers I don't know who's it is. There more members from my area, one in Buckley and one in Eatonville and at least on in Tacoma. I know there are more in WA but I will let them introduce themselves.

This is a great group and they will help you tremendously with anything you need, but I would recommend that you get and read the Book of Reprints (BOR) as that will answer almost all of your questions and you won't have to wait for members to respond.

We should have a Washington Rally sometime when all cars are here.

Appreciate all the welcomes! Thanks CDJ for the info. Yep. I'm sure it was Jamie at the car show. Nice to know there are a bunch of locals in Washington. Look forward to hearing more about the rally!

OK Jamie, since you are the senior 360er here in WA, at least I think you are and since you have the experience of the Oregon Rally (I know it was supposed to be a NW Rally) you should set this up. You don't have enough to do right?

Tim - Welcome to The Club.

Sounds like you already have the factory manuals for Subaru 360.

If you get the BOOK OF REPRINTS, with all the technical articles we
have printed since 1979 and more, you will have the answers to 98+%
of all the questions you will ever have about your 360.

And if you have other questions, lots of us are available by e-mail or
on this website to help.

Thanks guys for the welcome. The 360 that I got was from gregw98. If you go to his introduction post titled "My 360" he posted some nice pictures of it. It was picked up yesterday morning in MS, and I hope to see it in about a week or so.

Nice to see the "other WA" represented. Are you all by yourself down under books1, are is there a contingent of believers?
