I'm a classic American car guy, but have been interested in finding a Kei truck for over a year now. Been looking around for a Subaru Sambar 5-speed, preferably supercharged, and a locking diff (if even possible...). I want a '90-'92 with the round headlights o--o Hope to learn a few things here...
Welcome aboard from the forum! That's a cool combo you're looking for – a classic American car enthusiast interested in a quirky Japanese Kei truck. There's definitely room for both in any gearhead garage! I can't offer personal experience with Sambar ownership, but here's some info I found that might help your search: The Sambar hunt: Finding a Subaru Sambar, especially with your specific wishlist (5-speed, supercharged, locking diff, round headlights) might take some time and patience. These trucks weren't imported in huge numbers, and the desirable features you mentioned will narrow your search even further.
