1970 Subaru


Recommended Posts

Bit of curiosity on my part. Anyone on this board ever have a Subaru earlier than 1970. Paid $700 for it in 1973 with less than 20,000 miles. Boxy little thing with standard 4 speed, probably 1.2l engine, fwd (I think). It was actually quite a little performer for its time and size. Unfortunatey I was rear ended at a dead stop at about 50 mph. Crushed the back end up to the rear window and broke both seats loose from the floor board. I'm sure the guy hitching a ride wishes I hadn't stopped for him. Currently have a 90 legacy.
