What is the Subaru 360?

Driving to work everyday we pass an old rusted car on the side of the road in McLendon-Chisholm, TX. We have always wondered what it was, but never really took the time to find out. We finally took a picture of it and found out what it is, its a Subaru 360.

I have added a new link to the right. If you are a graduate of Terrell High School, check out Terrell High.Com. It is a networking site for Terrell High School Alumni. You can register, post a picture of yourself, find old friends and old friends can find you. I didn't graduate from Terrell, but I am a member of my High Schools Alumni site. Check it out, you never know who may be already registered.
