Si Lupton's 1969 Subaru 360 Van

From Si

     I do own a 2-Ton 1954 Chevy COE but, I also brought this 1969 Subaru 360 Van home to Vermont from Illinois last year. A bit of an extreme from the cabover, it is just 114 inches long and 48 inches tall! 25 HP, 2 stroke 360 cc, air cooled rear engine with 10" tires!

     It had been sitting in a dry dealership garage for 17 years before I dragged it home INSIDE the Uhaul trailer. I do expect it will cause a few doubletakes from fellow truck lovers when I piggyback it on the `54 COE this summer to some New England truck and engine shows!

     Also a farm doodlebug made from a1930 Chevy bread delivery truck ( notice the home made logging winch on front, made from a moderl A transmission!)

     Best of luck and come visit us in Green Vermont this year!
