Do you know how big those things are?
I drove one when they were new. Smaller footprint than a bugeye.
They didn't cost $2000 new, and they have definitely NOT appreciated.

Heck, the micro car/truck market is hot right now, and they are definitely very collectible, depending on the micro car, values are quite strong... On another note, I also think I spy a DKW 3=6 two stroke and possible a Jaguar Mk II in the background...

If anyone (JP??) buys it I can store it for a few weeks.
That isn't the Caravelle near me, must be lots of them around here.

Market is hot but they still aren't valuable. I gotta be honest this one doesn't exactly melt my butter - though obviously I wouldn't kick it out of my garage for dripping oil.

There are a few Japanese Cars that I would cherish - this is at the top of my list:

Mine does too, i guess that makes it stylish ( as opposed to a rust bucket )

There's a 360 coupe,& a van for sale localy.
Cool vehicles,but not my thing.
I remember 360's used on "Fast Track" @ OCIR
in the early '70's.These were 360 coupes,with a roll-
cage around them (so they would land back on the wheels).
This was like the "Malibu Grand Prix" cars,in that you
paid $1 a lap,but this was on a dirt track.

You and me! Another nice Micholotti design. Back in the day they were assembled in Haifa for the local market. Unfortunately there don't seem to be any left.
