    It pains me a bit to do this but I have other things I should work on in life and I really need to clear out the projects. Also when I got it I lived in wisconsin where there was hope of getting it registered for road use but in Illinois that hope is pretty low.

    I picked this up I think 2 years ago now from SVreX for the princely sum of $1. I've collected a lot of parts to make a good serious challenge starter kit.

    Subaru 360 shell. NO TITTLE! Rough shape no-glass no tittle basically a shell as the floor has been removed. It's on a cart that enables it to be rolled around easily.

    I've got a Geo Metro 1.0L 5-speed drivetrain complete with uprights/struts lower ball joints, axles steering shaft/wheel and rack, radiator, ECU Pretty much everything to make a running 1.0L ran/shifted great when I drove the car until the A-arms rusted (<200lbs complete drivetrain!!!)

    4 14x6 Mazda 2nd gen RX-7 phone dials that will bolt to the Metro uprights (I may be able to find some 225 R14 race rubber for these)

    Geo Metro front seats in good shape.

    Assembled Megasquirt (V2.0 I think I'll have to check)

    I have some other stuff that may be includeable depending on what someone wants.

    I really don't want to separate the "set" of stuff as I either want to see it go as a challenge car or I'll just sit on it until I can do it. I'm in a moment of weakness on my desire to keep it sitting around so strike while the iron is hot. I will try to get it out of the shed and get some pictures soon. Add some steel, welder, and a Turbo and have a sweet little car.

    Mahomet, IL pickup only!

    $500

    Just to clarify, this is a 360 coupe, right? Not a van or pickup.

    Oh, I'm sad!

    If anyone is interested in VW (or related) power, I've still got the cut down VW chassis this was sitting on when nocones bought it. Rolling bug chassis with suspension and trans, 25" cut out of it to fit the 360.

    Free.

    PLEAZE SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING WITH THIS CAR!!

    VW chassis....360 body...subaru motor (of which I have plenty)....hmmm this is sounding suicidal. Good thing Im too lazy to pick all this stuff up.

    I'm close enough to consider this but it just isn't speaking to me, the pictures I found on google that is.

    I want a 360, but just a stock one to drive around.
