Car of the Week: 1970 Subaru 360 Sambar van

The Subaru 360 Sambar blazed its own tiny trail in the van world.

Vicki Siefker has showed up in a lot of places with the little van she calls "Buck" in tow. And she knows wherever she goes, the questions are sure to follow.

"What is that?" and "What country did that come from?" are always among them. People don't always ask if the van has a name, but she'll always introduce him as "Buck." He has fuzzy dice hanging in the rear window, because the front windshields on a 1970 Subaru 360 Sambar van are so small, you'd have trouble seeing around the pair of dangling dice, and they'd probably be bouncing off your forehead.

Plymouth Sedan Delivery Survivor

A 1941 Plymouth P11 sedan delivery has survived the "work life" and has become part of the family.

Walter Percy Chrysler introduced the low-price Plymouth in 1928. By 1930, his Plymouth was sold at Dodge, De Soto and Chrysler dealerships, where it fought the suffocating squeeze of the Great Depression. To help increase sales at Plymouth franchises, a commercial line of Plymouths became available in 1935.
