1979 FE Coupe coming home soon
moosens replied to cricket's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Hey,keep this one out of jail,will ya?? Plenty of parts here too,but I am probably a good month away from begining the great purge of 2008. For sure I have bumpers - probably even new or rechromed I bought. -
Amazing find - Huge Disapointment!!! PICS
moosens replied to Gravityman's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
From first sight these look good for me: From orange coupe pictured first: Grill and/or the "Subaru" badge on the grill. Front bumper if straight Chrome window trim if not pitted. Rear windshield glass White Coupe: (looks to be a '74 or '75) Driver's side mirror Seats **** Even if you just got the white center portions with the little "star" pattern in it. But it most be 100% Third coupe looks rough,but see what the interior looks like,please. I'm not rich but I do take care of people for their efforts. Nice part of NC you're in. Might be down to the VIR track later this year which is right on the NC border. By that time the weeds should have the cars covered,so let me know if you can help me out. If you do try to make one of those a runner I can help you out with engines,etc.. Would be fun to make a sleeper out of one of them. -

Historic Ice Racing On Lake George!
moosens replied to Mike Kamm's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Too cool !! and unfortunately a little too far,for me. Glad you had so much fun. Well,maybe next year. Will we see you at Carlisle,Mike? -
Joe,I'm very sorry about your situation. I sure do hope things change for the better,and soon. My friend and I just had lunch earlier and were talking about the whole police/corruption/favoritism,etc. ordeal we live with. I'm in the middle of a little situation here too. Need a police report from an incident which happened over a month ago. Getting the run around...etc...I just know there's a connection issue here where the offender must be related or close to a cop. What you said back there,entirely TRUE and I am presonally extremely proud to say I know you. That took balls,and I appreciate you coming out and saying what you did from your point of view. I commend you and applaud you. Downward spiral,we're circling the drain now. Good health to all and peace in your future.

Rebuild Thread - 1979 Brat
moosens replied to Gyoas759's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Noooo,it's not 10 years. There'd be people stealing cars left and right and making their own bill of sale slips. The law was "before 1981" no title is required. Pretty sure they made it 20 years now. 20 years for Classic status,that's for sure. I replied to your other post seeking parts. Check it out. Good luck with it. Might not be the fuel pump. Tank might be gooped up and just not drawing like the '74 I just got that has been sitting. Plenty of Factory manuals cheap on eBay. I'm sure I have at least one '79 I could give up. Read my reply on the other post and git on up here next month when the temps warm up over 50. -
Heads up for turn signal lenses for 72-3 DLs
moosens replied to leone's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
No sweat. He's a good guy. I have procrastinated on making an offer on a lot of stuff he hasn't listed yet. Pretty much weeded out the 70's items and going to make an offer on that lot alone. he has a heap more of 80's parts too and I think some Legacy too. -

moosens replied to leone's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Sorry,I guess I read your post wrong. So,what you mean is that there's a seller offering such lenses,correct? 970autoparts has been a really good guy to deal with. -
http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=49973 That's what you need. Enjoy! * Read it first and think it out. Spend a minute or two looking it over with the instructions. You can bang this out quicker than I did. Good luck,and yes,you will smile really big and for a long time when that heat warms your toes.

engine is in the cargo area,but thanks for offering. Son changed his mind.....mentioned it,started raising the humidity in the house....sharpening chisel.

Well,thanks Jerry...I've called you a God before and I'll surely keep that impression going. Geez,I'm kind of weak in the gut right now. Just looked over the photos from the first post. That's certainly a VERY workable piece of machinery. As for the west coast trip....going to need to work on it. Wasn't too thrilled about my son overhearing the whole conversation and then telling me he'd rather not fly out west.....:-\ . So,with that and knowing the wife's stance on flying these days....going to have to sharpen the chisel and swing the hammer more swiftly to make this happen. stay tuned

Restoration project question
moosens replied to ShawnW's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Not to me. You keep the bodystyle going and be realistic about functionality. Screw automatics unless you need to sit in traffic. No biggie,it's a rare bird and certainly vintage at this point. For some time now my feelings have been that we need to subdivide the Historic Forum into Vintage pre-80 (Gen I Brat included) and vintage EA81. Maybe now we can kick it around. Not trying to offend,but we've added everything from Vanagons (again,not poking at you,etc.) to Vendors,Trail runs,beer runs,etc..... so one more little change shouldn't be too big a deal....I hope. We'll see what the "Vintage Resistance" squalks about. Oh,I am the vintage resistance....nevermind.:-p ok,back on subject... Dress it up! You can always put stock wheels on if you hear enough noise from the .....whatever they are. -
Stage I is different from Stage II by virtue of one little stinkin pipe being at a different angle. Same location,different exit angle. There are two p/n's for the Stage II. One is for Stage II 1977 and 1978. And one is for '79. The FPM shows them NOT being interchangable. Why? I'm not sure right now but will investigate. So,if the '79 is different I'll need one of those,one of the Stage II '77-8,and at least two of the Stage I. So I'm up to 4 now.

Carlisle show May 16-18 2008
moosens replied to subeman90's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
Good for him. -
First two weekends in March are out. Third weekend ...that Friday is my B'day...not sure but most likely skip that weekend. Still need a little more time to nail down a good date. Thinking first weekend in April might be better. But,I'd go for one of the last two weekends in March as long as the family plans work out. At this time of the year it might be worth the money to stay in a motel. I've camped at the Batso campground which is part of the State land. It's around back of the area we start off at (Ranger station of Rt. 206 in Atsion). Plenty of maps available. http://www.pineypower.com/geninfopbpg10.html Lodging: http://www.pineypower.com/lodging.htm Offroading : http://www.pineypower.com/offroading.htm And its all part of the Wharton state Forest : http://www.state.nj.us/dep/parksandforests/parks/wharton.html Hope you can make it. Should be a much better year for us. I'm guessing we're going to make the run at least two times this year,maybe three or ?? We'll be at the Carlisle Import show the third weekend in may and will probably make another dash through the Barrens on the way home like last year.

Vintage Subaru Parts For Sale Cheap

Welcome and Cheers ! Paul -
Lets see the brats.
moosens replied to tailgatewagon's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Skip,damned if you don't look as devilish as the little fellow on the hood.... pardon the switcherooney but I just happened to have a curiousity about our old pal just this AM and did a quick Google. Obviously he's gotten shy here not being on since sometime in 2006.... ....but apparently he's into a bi-plane now. Could not find him listed with his said employer but I didn't bother looking too hard there for fear of guys showing up at my door in black suits and sunglasses. Well,again,sorry,but that guy does have a dedicated website for the BRAT and all..... but kind of glad he's elsewhere now. Let's see those BRATs !!
