Had a good time! See you all next time. Looking to make a run down soon , especially if I buy that lifted Loyale in DE.

Could not find that thread. Your link got me to sign up though. I looked around the Events forum and looked over everything quickly .... but I'll catch up with you guys soon.

I joined. Hope to see you soon.

Where and when is there a meet on Wed.?

You can do that. All wagon and sedan and HT and BRAT are the same. I've got one - possibly the last I'll sell - new windshield gasket that we had freshly produced just a few years ago. Send a PM if you're interested. Coupe windshields are a little different in the upper corners. -FYI to all.

Have steering columns here complete or just cover. Also have a brown dash with some cracks but nothing like yours. That dash has the tach in it from a GF. I've got a ton of stuff from that GF which was a 56k old lady car. Most everything matches up to your car. And I've got that early Coupe grill too. Somewhere between my place and ctsuba's I also have that heater unit.I know I have a good shifter base with nice boot. All sorts of plastic including decent remote covers for the inner door handles and window cranks. Time , I don't have much of lately , as usual. But I'll get to storage over this long weekend and get stuff set aside.

Nothing compared to the one still sitting up here at ctsuba's place. Sitting is a loose term. More like in a state of constant movement earthward. Sorry Charlie.

Thanks Matt. Very informative. Economy is such that Biff and Muffy had to save the Carlisle funds for new linens for the yacht. Click click .....

Or a jerk motion. :lol: Go kid , go!! Is your dad part of the F & S gang? Where did he work? We're old school CT Subaru people too. Nevermind the nay sayers and check out the work done by board member "ettev" - a.k.a. Mike in PA. You're on the same track. Don't loose momentum. "ctsuba" - Charlie - has lots of parts too. He's in Salem CT or thereabouts.

Aw man , I could have taken the driver's side regulator out of a car that just went to the crusher last Saturday .... :-\ I did take the passenger side but somehow neglected to get the D/S ..... but I'd bet my home that I have one in storage though. moosens at yahoo dot com - works wonders! You can pay by check or money order or if you really want to get hip - and charged for it - join Paypal. Actually avoiding Paypal is preferred. Contact me and we'll get a list going and work things out. Generally hard to find anything through dealers or vendors other than brake and tune-up parts. Talk to you soon, Paul

Don't give so much info .... That bad , eh? I'm guessing you didn't win this years prize which was ?????

First I had pick up in there , then changed to pan .... whatever he decides he's still not exactly bound and gagged here. My point is make the decision and get it going and live with it. What really matters here? Apparently its the high slung pan as the low slung would be most un-Califormia like. Would be a lot worse here with our roads and occassional raised storm drain covers. (manhole is such a freaky term )

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggghhhhhhh! Not the Haynes !!! :-\ You can find factory service manuals - infact if you'd like the one specific to your vehicle I have at least one to sell for $20 plus shipping - so probably less that $30 total ad you'll have what the dealer trained knucklebusters have to use. I agree with buying the whole gasket / seal kit as they're all over and cheap enough. Consider the age of the car. You're better off replacing as many seals and gaskets as you can now. Likely causes of leaks - front main seal , oil pump seals , oil pan. Headgaskets after those. Several of us here have some NOS parts and tons of good used. I'm trying to keep you from overspending and at the same time you can help some of us by buying the extras we've acquired. Right now under my bed awaiting sales are Factory Service Manuals from the 70's ...example # 1

Soon , very soon. I'm hoping to get down there in the next week or two. Mostly we're going for other reasons beyond bashing the tar out of a car. We're going to give the car some exercise and avoid trouble - but you can go as hog wild as you choose to, just have a plan and equipment for your or your car's extraction. For the new and unknowing , we generally meet at the ranger station in Atsion NJ on Rt. 206 - over across from the station in the large grassy area surrounding the gravel parking area. The riding is 99% over sandy trails that are hard packed enough to support a Front Wheel Drive car andwe've even seen old RWD cars go thru too. So its nothing to be worried about if you don't act like an idiot. Smart to have such items as a tow strap , lunch , water , etc.. Think ahead and plan accordingly. Recent rain means it'll be soggy - too dry it'll be a lot of dust in the face of whoever is not in the lead position ..... need to fix a flat over sand? Then you'll need a good base for your jack - 2 x 12 about 24" long works great or thick plywood ..... Can't stress this enough: we personally will not be going all out but will be enthusiastically moving through the forest. Our mission is to p/u some wheels I won on eBay for $1.04 i Wilmington DE , hunting reptiles and such , camp one night , and have some fun on the trails. Cheers!

How was Saturday?

It's still a dry run isn't it? Swap that pan now and be happy about doing it.

Better use that discount to make up for the paycheck those dealers give out. sorry , had to. Note to self - keep Paul on "the list".

Sure it is ...now git to makin' it a GSR Seriously, please explore putting the earlier grill from the Coupe or 4WD wagons. Round orange lights ....mmmmmm Let me know what parts I can take forever to get to you.

Much like that in my '78 4WD wagon.

Supposedly Andrew - wagonsonly - and , Charlie - ctsuba , are going. If they do there's a good chance I'll run down there too , but no promises.

That's right. Good luck with it! You have what I consider the most desrirable Gen I Subaru - Brat anyways. Toss up between that and a Coupe for top dog overall vintage Subaru for me. But in general the Brat is most known and therefore most desired by the masses. And the '81 is one of a kind!

No sweat Earl, and totally my fault. Good luck with this one. Going to be a winner , I'm sure. Can't go wrong with those body styles.

Nice! Pretty sure with very little mod you can get the front grill from an early Coupe or Stage I 4WD grill to work , which has the round orange lights and super***************in look in general compared to the '74-77 Stage I squareness. I'm glad you're going to make a mold for that Kamei. It kills me to have mine and not have a space to work in that'll allow me to go to town. I cut prepreg all night long. Uni , woven , glass , E-glass , etc.... This one desreves the nose job. Hey , you still want all that crap I was/am still putting together? - lights , tail light .... ?? Cheers!

Where did they mount? Would love to see them. Did they also make any for the otherwise front drum 1970's cars? Here that means up to the Stage I 1400's - say around 1974 or so - after the ff-1 series. I've got to guess that those early factory or semi-factory rally teams had them.
