I was going through my iPhoto's and found some pictures I took of an old Subaru truck at a private viewing of a local guys collection of autos:
Also, I found this somewhere online:

Kewl. Looks like an old Corvair pickup truck. Always wanted one, looks like it would turn a few heads. Mike

I think Mike's est. is probably close based on the specs for the 360 they had on display at the last big sube meet I went to.

You can get those 360 coupes in Gran Tourismo 2.
I forget how much you can get them up to... if you mod em alot I think like 90 or so up from the stock 25.
(of course it IS a video game)
For reference I think a stock brat has about 74 HP from an 1800 CC engine and 67 from a 1600.

Ahhh, the good ole days of low horsepower, high emissions, and great mileage. Also a simple vehicle. Those days are long gone. Mike

I think it's funny some of the items listed on the 360 as standard equipment... dual electric wipers! back up lights! directionals! window washers! dual side mirrors! heater *and* defroster, with blower to boot! All equipment that is so standard (or required) today that you rarely see mention of it.
Of cousre the Baja didn't see a gas tank lock...

Wow! What years were the 360 and that pickup? I had a Suburu wagon back in 74 (first gas crisis) and I'd never heard of subaru before that. Also had a Honda 600 coupe, I wish I still had....................Pete L.

That's cute! I love the older cars...they were so tiny. Peninsula Subaru in Gorst has a couple of old ones like that. Hmmm, might be the same models actually. I would have to check them out again.

The 360 dates back to the late 60's - here's a little history
