I unlocked it so it would fall through the floor when we're done with it. To me,we're just about done with it. I think maybe one of you actually confirmed without my asking,so to me it's "confirmed" if FedEx delivered it. But sure,I want to keep it untill everyone is happy.:-p Make room for Batch 2 !!!

Sorry,I either didn't realize you needed yours ASAP or I went toast on it.I got John C's out to CA first because he was really crying the blues.Kind of thought there was another urgent need but ....????? You should have the notification/tracking number email from FedEx. Enjoy! And please let me know about the removal and resetting cost.I'll be looking to do the same soon.If you're a pro and do it yourself please post some pics and advice.

So 7 cars entered already,right? And its not even February yet. Add the usual suspects and we round up about a dozen and a half cars if those folks show up.Jon(2) Matt(2) Keith, Dave(2?) Melis, Nick ,Scranton brothers,upstate NY guys,maybe Neo,and a couple more Jersey people. Any word on Scott S.? His kid ok,or what?

THere's washing facilities about 100 feet from our tent!!! All cars are welcome to use it FREE. Something I just found out last year. Dirty isn't too bad,especially if you show up really muddy in a 4WD. That'll show those Volvo XC wussies.

No sweat,and thanks for understanding too.I'm so broke right now that I might have to wait a couple more days to send it,very sorry. We learned about the rip off brokerage fees the hard way.If it goes over a US border just use the USPostal folks.

Supercede numbers can play tricks on you. Most of these numbers appear to me "first edition".

I'm more than half way through on checking the p/n's for Shawn,so don't go too crazy anybody. I have all FPM's from the 360 through 1982,and some more. Just takes some time flipping pages,hunting them down. Shawn,I'll gladly cover you for the 1100-1400 items. Gotta think you want the 1600 stuff. Talk to you soon.

Only thing I would add is go carefully around the corners.Take your time and don't press hard.Make several light cuts instead of pressing hard.

yeah,I'm working on it,and should be at the Post Office with cash tomorrow or Tuesday.The first package boxed will be one of the last to ship,sorry about the way that worked out.At least we're going USPostal now,and NOT FedEx or another major shipper.We don't need no stinkin' taxes coming back at me again. Problem the last couple of weeks has been getting time and cash in hand at the same moment.:-\

Went to Carlisle for our big show on a Friday night once in the '78.Same thing,lights went out.I checked the fuse,looked great,no fix though.Drove carefully for about 100 miles or so,next day had Skip look it over.He used my FSM and hunted through everything only to find the fuse I saw as good had a broken endcap.......didn't see that because I didn't take it out and tug on the ends.Filiment(sp?) looked good. Skip to the rescue! Might or might not help you too.

Hey guys,can we whack this thread now or what? Last to get them are the Canadians (Zefy accepting the lot) and MAV in Florida.Canadians look to be all set for payment.They've coverd the ticket.MAV needs to send just a small balance,so can we consider this batch done? Let thread drop?Delete it? On to batch two And BTW....git yer butts moving!!! Those of you who replied for Batch 2,please,please,please make things happen quick to ensure our price and make life easy for Todd and myself.Thanks

Nice base to work with!!!!!!! What's the Mfg. date on it?? Before May of '78? In a couple of years I'm going to need one just like that,not pretty,but solid.Keep that in mind for me.

A little bracket here,a little bracket there.......hmmm,we all want to see that project.Subframe,slight lift,big wheels......all it takes is money and time. As for dropping in a 1600,should be straight up.Like Todd said,back then folks regularly took a 5-7 year old Subaru they got for $500 and dropped in a 1600.Giving up on the 1400 was real easy back then.If the crossmember is not perfect you might have to hog out the mount holes,but I think you're ok really.

Gotta start super low in this case.Low mileage,sure but I got my '78 with 70k too for $350,running great. Granted the days of getting that lucky are waning,but I'd still start way low because of it sitting,beat interior,dent,etc.. $200 and let them work you up a little if you have that weak of a heart.(don't be insulted,we've all gotten weak for one thing or another) Like 75Subie said for max,but I sure wouldn't go any higher. Good luck

Yes,I'm going to whip up a sealing parts/weather stripping thread soon. Basically,it'll be a call to arms.Scatter and seek,bring back good news.Then plan a financial undertaking once we're sure we have what we're looking for. With each approach we need to explain to every vendor that this would be a group purchase,not just one or two cars.Most likely upwards of 50 cars +. Getting back to your '76,that's a smart approach.Cover it,let the rain go over it now instead of into it.Where you're at it'll sit fine.

Wow,I'm registered too!!! 3 cars!!! Thanks Andrew!! Coming soon,a flyer for you to post at your local dealer or Subaru shop,etc.

Let us know how it is,and if they have any others left....please. That'll fit my '73 Coupe.Hopefully it was produced more recently than the late 70's.

Take the shore route and caravan with the other vintage knuckleheads. Thanks for not registering my car.

Yes,for the "no regrets" treatment DO the headgaskets and intake manifold gaskets too!!

Sorry,I meant rebuilt calipers.mmmmm good.

Yeah,that's a GREAT sign,to me.

We need a cross section of the rubber to give us an idea of wether or not a current catalog item will work,or if we need to special order. PRP's catalog has nice cross section views of their stock. Datsuns,maybe!! The Subes and 'suns share a few items! Cross your fingers everybody. Whoa!!! I might have the cross sections right here in my FPM!! Later on I'll start a dedicated Sealing and Weatherstripping Parts Thread. For now,the info you asked for......Stage II '77-79 rear sedan windshield gasket p/n = 6650 02660 and according to the FPM does NOT interchange with Stage I cars from '72-77.That p/n is 6650 02240 GF Hardtop = 6650 02410 for Stage I and 6650 02700 for Stage II FE and DL Coupe = 6650 02280 for Stage I and 6650 02680 for Stage II

You registered MY car?

Thanks,but don't bother.They aren't about to send glass over for us now.We have a board member who works at SOA.He's also checking on some old stock,but so far has come up fairly empty. Looks we're going to need some produced unless some distributor or shop still has a batch.

Yes,I agree with Todd. Strip everything out of that interior.You're probably going to find some stuff you don't like behind the dash too.All needs to be dealt with.And besides,you'll be that much more ahead of the game if it does become a parts car. I can't emphasize this enough,keep everything labeld and organized.Although this is a really simple car,as time goes by even the simplest of items can perplex your day. You at least have your head on your shoulders about it,I can see that.thumbs up Drop the gas tank,I guess you're doing that already.Get the bumpers off,splash pans,exhaust chunks (asuming it's like most sitting Subarus),etc. If the ceiling liner is good,don't touch it. Please get it as best as you can and take some more pictures.Not sure if WagonsOnly has looked in on this but he/we should have some floor sections from a '75 4WD wagon that might help. Mosty you need it stiff,solid,and trustworthy.Replacing with the pressed steel pieces it was originally assembled with is most likely not going to happen.But if you ask me if I care......no way! You'll have that body style rolling and if somebody needs to be picky about it call me and I'll kick their :cool: And,if need be,I thnik you've got an excellent shot at finding another.There were TONS of those as they were very popular with ladies,so they're still out there,albeit a handfull of them.
