Geirskogul posted:Rolling 25 until 1992 then they were like "gently caress that" or something, I guess, because it stopped at 1967. Same deal with California. It used to be rolling 25 but we stopped in 2000, so 1975 is the cutoff.

Cage posted:I'm not trying to be mean, but why? They're not fast, not really comfortable, no technology, will kill you in a crash, and gets horrible mileage. Is this just one of the memes this forum goes through were awful cars are so bad people lust over them (see: dumb combines harvesters). If you would've waited just like a month and a half you could've hit the one year mark. Shame...

Raluek posted:1975. I honestly didn't know they made kei cars that far back, but it looks like they did! Neat. Kei cars have been a tax classification since 1949 There were even a few officially imported into the US in the 60s by Malcolm Bricklen (who later went on to make the Bricklin SV-1 and import... Yugos), the Subaru 360 and the Subaru Sambar (in van and truck form). Unfortunately, at the time they were made, the kei specification only actually allowed for engines no larger than 360cc, so you're not getting anywhere in a hurry. I think a forums member was working on a Sambar belonging to a friend of his? That thread might've fallen into the archives at this point though.

DogonCrook posted:That was actually a low point at ford and we found out later they actually were cheating the roof crush test a couple years after this. Assuming it was mostly the same people in charge its hard not to wonder if they knew and didnt care. That's generally how it goes with most American cars. Easier to sue a domestic manufacturer than a foreign one probably. The Corvair got poo poo for having swing arms in the rear but that's the same setup the Beetle and the 356 used.

300% if that's not a huge scam that's a screaming deal. Air cool 911s are stupid money even just for broken up shells. If my local craigslist and Ebay are anything to go off of, that's a 2-3k flip easy.

Dagen H posted:That's very tempting. 2nd-gen 'Vairs are a lot of cool for not much money. I always wonder about that. Why are they so unpopular? Is it the air cooled flat-six? Ralph Nader? For something that could make a fun sports sedan, I see them go super cheap like all the time.
