.... .....well .....One thing you'll quickly learn about the East coast is that most folks really don't bother with Subaru message boards and stroking each other over Subarus. Unless you get a WRX then you can meet up with 20-something's at various locations for a dose of snot-itude. But seriously Spark,I'd be happy to see you join up with us/me sometime. I should be going to VA Beach sometime around June 13-19th. Also we do trail runs at the NJ Pine Barrens which is sandy trails,little bumps and stuff,some puddles,nothing like you guys have out west,but still off road exercise and nice environment. Keep an eye open for those. I'll be taking my son down there soon. We meet at the ranger station of Wharton State Forest on Rt.206 in Atsion , NJ. Carlisle Import Kit/Replicar Show is a OK. It used to be more truely vintage Imports but these days we all squak because of the mass of late model Volvos,...etc. (yuppie scum cars) and its lost a LOT of the exotic cars that used to attend. But I would say you'd like it the first time for sure. Good to see at least once. And sooner or later some of us are going to get together at the Outer Banks (OBX) in NC , which is a very special -national treasure- location. See it before the Tidal wave wipes it out. I still would like to get those 70's 4WD exhaust pieces in Columbia. I recently wrote the seller again and told them to hang tight and that someone I know is moving there soon who might help me get them. They don't want to ship these but also told me like $90 for shipping once. Too much if there's an alternative,which YOU might be. I'll take care of you for time,I'm good that way. See Atlanta,Florida,OBX,and if you want to come up to the NYC area I'd love to play tour guide there in The City. Cheers!

I could swear they said they were extending the deadline this year due to the economy .... :-\ Not sure if we're going to bother registering. Might just do a walk in and hang with you guys for a little then split for MD for the bike show on Sunday. I'd like to be there early Sunday so probably sleep in MD. What's the count anyways?

good one.

Post counts mean nothing to me. Enjoy the board not the numbers. Ciao

Documented: The 1970 FF-1 Project car...

Please don't get discouraged. You have a good amount of time ahead of you but you've also got plenty of moral support here. Try playing Motorhead and Ramones when working on it. That always makes things go faster. But then again,don't worry about speed. Take your time and keep plugging along. Cheers! -
Not true ,sorry. I can drive mine and have been for many many miles. If you don't pay the Classic insurance you're all set. Its the insuance companies that demand the car be kept in a garage and mileage limited yearly. Speedometers can be easily disconnected, if needed. Earl, What exactly did you do for this seller that he/she is your customer?

Nothing wrong here. Low budget,commuter bike. We had one of those LTD's but I think it was a 440? I'm constantly looking at bikes of reasonable price. Old Honda CB and CL's , Bridgestone 175's to 350's , Yamaha RD's , etc.,etc.. Something for my 6 - 8 minute work commute. Good luck and be safe. We've all got the sad stories. Don't be one. I'm in the same boat as you,haven't ridden much at all in the last 10+ years. Something to do with my oldest being 12+ years old. I think I gave up on any contemporary bikes a couple years after he was born. And now I'm hunting early Interceptors and ????? Comfy seat and riding position in that LTD. Much to be said for that being you're probably not getting any younger.

Third guy , same advice. Spend the money and get a kit off of eBay for like $58 or so.... Good luck. -
Something for every occassion ! Got the funeral/wedding (most weddings) car and the redneck BBQ car and everything in between. Variety is the spice of life,yes. Very cool that someone took the time to gather,capture,and disseminate this info for our pleasure.

Didn't do Charlie's place ,, talk to you later or sometime soon.

Yeah! Tough to bother with a camera after a hard effort,but if you can some of us here would really appreciate it. How do you guys down there say it? "git 'er done!!!" Couple of guys up here with several to "many" older Subarus that could use the same kind of effort to continue life on the road. Hi ctsuba ! I'd get that '82 on eBay right now if I had a welder and space to work.....or any one of a number of east coast Subarus for that matter.
