He followed that by starting Subaru of America and imported the Subaru 360. He left Subaru of America to build his own automobile; not a 'one-off', a kit or repli-car, but a production car; his own car company. The New Brunswick government put up the lion's share of the capital hoping to provide jobs at two plants in Minto and Saint John. Since the drivetrain, suspension, and many other components were from Detroit, Bricklin was continually fighting a losing supply battle. It became increasingly difficult to obtain more money from the New Brunswick government for manufacturing when the production volume just wasn't going up. The lack of additional capital, along with poor quality and high scrap count body panels, the troublesome electro-hydraulic door system, leaky door weather-stripping, and generally inferior manufacturing quality when compared to Detroit, all lead to the demise of the Bricklin as a production car. This interesting build of a car in the form of a 1975 Bricklin that will never rust on the body because it's an all color infused acrylic body. This one has various shades of Safety Green on the panels, with black rockers. It has both the doors working perfectly, does not leak, and is in fair to good condition. This year's model was fitted with a Ford V8 and was thoroughly enjoyed by our consignor and his wife, participating in many a car show, parade, and Bricklin conventions. This particular car won not only the Most Original Bricklin at a Bricklin convention, but was also a feature car at the Hagley Car show in Wilmington, DE.
