GordonJr01 Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 I'm living in Okinawa, Japan and have noticed a large number of Subarus that I am unfamiliar with. I see R2's and the Pleo all the time now and I'm plenty familiar with those, but I came across this VW type van and was just wondering if anyone knows what it is. I checked on Subaru's website at the history and nowhere does it mention the introduction of such a van. It may not be necessarily a "historic" Subaru, but it definitely doesn't look like anything I've seen before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeroy Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Its a Sambar Classic. Don't know much else about them. You might like to check the entry in Wikipedia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaru360 Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 That's a Sambar van. I don't know the year but that's a newer one probably less than 10 years old. They are neat I wish we could get them here in the US, I'd buy one. The last vans here were the 68-70 360 vans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maudsland Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Have a play around this site, you will see this model plus lots of other interesting cars, the 360 would be the only model to suit this section tho Thierry http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/search.php?skipValidationJS=0&action=results&id=&query=subaru+&submit=Search&sold=available&andor=AND Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerFahrer Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 It looks like a Casa Blanca style version of the Sambar. I didn't know they made such a vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
