The matte green SVX I posted on Facebook (and below) as a teaser for upcoming coverage from Canibeat’s First Class Fitment lit the torch for this week’s Theme Tuesday that sent me to all corners of the internet.
This week’s post isn’t as deep as some, but hopefully the obscure variety of Subarus in this post that are not that are not Legacys, Outbacks, or Imprezas makes up for it.
Picking a starting point for a post like this is a little hard so how about a render of an early first generation SubaruThis ’75 isn’t all that low but Imagine it were?From what I can gather these rusted out something fierce which would explain why they were hard to find modifiedThey look pretty damn cool though…The only Justy I ever saw in person was fairly unsafe, but a heck of a fun beater, this one looks safe and pretty neat actuallyAnd this particular Justy was a salt flat racer, it managed 123.224, and it did so on a 1L motor due to class requirementsThis Brat was featured on Speedhunters and it wears its battle scars with prideCouldn’t resist including this one… even if it is lifted, that flex!A subject of a magazine feature a few years back this Subaru 360 Van is fairly well-knownI can’t for the life of me remember what’s in this 360 Van but I know it isn’t stockHere’s another 360, bit of a ’70s custom van vibe here, and wheelie bars out back suggest something with some powerJapan Delivering like only Japan can with this 360 hot rod built by Soul Art N RodHere’s a rear shot courtesy of SpeedhuntersPocket Rocket 360, again from Japan and again from SpeedhuntersCan’t recall where I grabbed this one from, some obscure post about Japanese cars no doubtOne last bit of fun from Japan in the form of a Kei truckAnd now an SVX onslaughtThis is actually a drift car, and a very good-looking one at thatIn the event you didn’t believe me#lmsoneverythingI believe this was the worlds first bagged SVXWhether or not this is the same one I’ve yet to determineClose things out with this awesome Baja owned by @wheelandtorque
Does anybody know how to get the effect, like on the green svx?
I’m talking about copper wheels.
Is it a paint or what?
If it’s a paint, plz let me know about paint code and brand.
Cheers,
that lifted brat looks to have solid axles…maybe laid on top of an ladder frame from another 4×4. Serious flex though.
It looks as though the black 360 van and the red 360 van are the same van ? Also is that 360 hot rod 4×4
@Mana Mari you might be right actually. I wonder which is the newer photo?

I think it’s like a transluscent powder coat but I’ll see what I can dig up
