Title: Attended a little car show today
Post by: Crosley.In.AZ on April 02, 2005, 11:25:14 PM
I really mean little cars.  Quite a few cars there, a wide variety of cars... Subaru, Mazda R360, Isetta, Crosleys, Mini Cooper, Morris Minor, Zundapp.

I also learned where there is a stash of various little cars not tooo far from me.  Kinda like enjenjo posted the other day....... a person never knows what may be around the corner from you.

You fellows know where any Zundapp parts are?  The guy needs a few

When I lived in Japan, those little Subarus were everywhere. Suzuki, Honda and Mitsubishi  made little cars too. There were some Japanese guys in the town where I lived that hopped them up, particularly the Suzukis. they ran 11 second quarters in out base car club drags. I guess that was probibly the start of the rice rocket craze.

I seem to remeber that "flatulencecat" was born in Japan?  his feet are big too....


As many of the regulars here know I just really love these little wacky cars that were built decades ago. they are so under powered and small .... it is wild they were ever built.

I pointed out to some of my friends there that I rode a motorcycle to the event that had 2 to 3 times the displacement, cylinders  and horsepower than the little cars
