Actually the Brat was a classic, and the Baja seemed to get good reviews. Anyone here have favorite or unfavorite vehicles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I've driven so many POSes and weird cars - I just don't care much and, indeed, I find 'odd' cars kind of interesting. I even drove a 1948 Willys Fleetvan in highschool, old RHD postal vehicle. better than walking. never had money for 'nice' cars and never had my ego tied-up with my wheels too much. But other people I'm sure though that van was nuts. kinda like this ; 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThosL Posted March 6, 2014 Author Share Posted March 6, 2014 Those would be head-turners, for good or not! Some art work on the truck would also be impressive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine had a seat in it, but was much easier to drive standing up. The door in the back was segmented on cables - like a garage door.The door on the side would slide back and latch - just a canvas strap across the opening. It would sometimes freak other drivers out at 2 lane stops when I was on the inside lane. They look over and see this geeky teenager STANDING in a yellow van right next to them! Made a little money hauling furniture with it on a few occasions too. The engine was a flathead 4 IIRC. Had a Ford 3 speed auto in it. The accelerator was an 'arm' that stuck out and you operated it with the inside of your foot. Barke pedal was up-down. Very odd. I THINK I have a pic somewhere that might show just a part of it in the background. Probably from about 1972... I'll look for it. that jo-car is in the Subaru museum in NJ I think.
