Buying, fixing, and driving a Subaru Sambar kei truck

I bought a 1988 Subaru Sambar Super Deluxe 4wd to bop around town, haul stuff, drive to work, etc. Being from 1988, it needed some things. And being a JDM vehicle, I had to get a little creative at times.
This truck is a KT6, 4th gen. with the 3 valve EK23 550cc 2 cylinder engine. Now that I've owned it a while I realize these are particularly rare in the states. Harder to find parts for but I love the old school look.
Let me know in the comments if you want to see more minitruck videos!
Thanks for watching!

Love the concept of that driving style and the visual quality given. My depth perception is HORRIBLE and I don’t drive anymore myself, but figured that’d be PERFECT for MANY PEOPLE in working . . . . Now when I would drive being that close in vision to what was happening ahead : WHOA ! Easily maneuvering ! Reminder of the 1961 Ford Econoline driving configuration .

Thanks, I really enjoyed your video. I'm 65, former Navy engineer, machinist, mechanic, etc.

I love it's simplicity and durability, way better than the F150

Ah, the joys of the subaru kei vehicle. Have had my Subaru Pleo for almost a year now, and its been an absolute blast for a 180$ vehicle

Subscribed cause I live in Michigan too. Been really wanting a KEI van but wasn't sure about if I could get it street legal. But with you putting a Michigan plate on it tells me that I just need to save up and buy a KEI van.
