***************CALL FOR ALL SUBARU 360 OWNERS TO UNITE!***************

Are there any other Subaru 360 owners out there?  Most of the
folks out there seem to be driving dreadnoughts with at least
two more cylinders than are *really* necessary.

If everyone drove a Subaru 360:

	o There would be no need for 55 MPH speed limit signs

	o The Arabs could go back to selling filler for sandboxes

	o There would be twice as many parking spaces

Let the frustrated speed-racer types have their namby-pamby
Corvettes and Z-cars, *we* know the virtues of owning a
REAL piece of automotive machinery!

Let's hear it for Our Favorite Vehicle!!

	Subaru 360 Owners eat your hearts out!

	Well I may not own a Subaru 360 but I think its
	kind of neat that the car designers are starting
	to realize that the car of the future was designed
	by BMW in 1956.  "What?" you say "1956, is he crazy?".
	Ha, I am a proud owner of a 1962, BMW 300, Isetta Custom.
	"Whats that?" you say. Well, I go cruising in my
	single front doored mean machine, all 13hp roaring
	under the back hatch, and all the people stop and
	stare at this excellent car of the future. Of course
	its not what is used to be 105,000 km on one piston
	is a lot of work, and the 6 l/100km  at 75 kph tops,
	(50 mpg and 45mph) is not what it used to get,
	but it still is lots of fun.
