One thing to keep in mind here. That computer shows what's IN stock through SOA....but not what a dealer may have in THEIR stock that they won't put back on the books-or let SOA know about. If you search,and ask often,you will find some parts in some dealer's lofts,closets,back shelves,etc. The buy back period for parts for our cars has long since passed.The dealer at this point is supposed to have disposed of that inventory or pay taxes on it if they report it as active inventory......so what do you think happens then? Ask,ask,ask...that's all I have to say. I'm not knocking subyluvr's research and effort,but if you look harder you'll probably come up with some more stock.Not everything,of course,because we all know how hard it is to find interior panels,etc. sitting on a shelf.There's already many many parts we'll never see again in new condition. Which brings me to the "Wish List"....print that sucker and take it with you or have it with you when you call on a dealer.Show them that there's an interest and most likely more items will appear for sale. We've all watched Center Subaru from Torrington,CT sell many vintage parts over the last 5 years or so.They wouldn't sell me anything that they didn't have on eBay...but I doubt that any of those parts was reported to SOA. I'm surprised we haven't seen more of the older dealerships doing the same.We've always expected dealers in VT,MA,NH,and the northeast in general to have a good stock of old parts and be selling them....but they must be SOA "Loyalists". But thanks for any research and reports on new old stock!

Not sure. I contacted the owner before and after they listed it and removed it.I never got a second callback.I asked him to pass along my info to the owner if he sold it,but haven't heard anything. There's actually two ff-1's involved there.One is the young guy's and the other is in a garage of a lady doctor they know nearby.We're betting the doctors is more roadworthy. I hope they surface someday. Current ff-1 owners,enter and sign in,please.

Anyone who even knows of anyone with an ff-1 sould contact me,or have the ff-1 owner contact me. We've acquired a heap of ff-1 parts in that stash from PA. Charlie who is part of the buying group owns a '71 ff-1 wagon and he's going to be very happy.But there's remainders that even good ol' Charlie won't be needing. I realize that there hasn't ever been an actual owner with a roadworthy ff-1 on this board,but the time has come to let any ff-1 owners know what's here for them. We also have some 360 parts but those will be tough to let go of.Andrew,who alegedly is still one third of the buying group :-\ (it'd be nice to hear from you,Andrew) will likely gather as much 360 stuff as he can.There may be remainders but I'm negotiating/trading with Ed Parsil (360 God of Gods) and will probably send him what 360 items are left.Just keep it in mind and try us,it's worth it if you own a 360.Worst we can do is say no. Parts are being inventoried a little at a time.Nothing is happening too quickly,but please let anyone know about this lot ASAP.I really don't want to move parts that I don't need into our next home.Thanks

Lost all contact with this thread.Too much going no right now.I want a set of louvers for the rear of any year coupe.Either generation,or both. Shipping would make it just too much,I think. -

Are they expecting any particular number before they designate a spot for you? I'll join in but if it looks like 3-4 people I'm going to bail out. You might have Connie's GLF in your hands soon. Count on me bringing the '78 up to Marcus if it happens. -
Anybody know where WagonsOnly is?
moosens replied to IdahoJak's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
He's alive. Shall I choke him for you/us? Andrew,Charlie and I are going to Harrisburg with or without you.Not being mean,well ok maybe I am,but it's just the facts.We need to take care of our responsibility so please consider joining us.Looking like Saturday with an evening stayover or late drive back whichever you decide.Also looks like 3 vehicles.Charlie wants to see a friend on Sunday.I will probably bring Luc and dabble in some form of entertainment like 4Wheeling at Pine Barrens or hit an amusement park or something,depending on which vehicle we come down in. Yes,I know you spoke to me for a few seconds and that counts for something.....call me later,free time is best-after 9. -

Vintage Koni suspension available
moosens replied to moosens's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
New old stock. $49 per set of 2 as in set of front,or set of rear. Hoping to draw interest in whatever he has to make a better deal. I will check again about the 4WD,just give me a day or so. -

I'll check,but he knows I have a 4wd wagon,so I have to think he'd have listed them. -
Whatever became of the Star?
moosens replied to Elroy Jetson's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
No,it was a mid year entry. Here's a little story. I bought a Brat cloth cover and the owner told me he was coming up from some military camp,etc. in NJ and they were rolling the first Brat out in the USA for sale.He pulled in and bought it on the spot.First one,so they told him. This is right near S.O.A. back in Penshauken or however you spell it. And the year was 1977,so he said. -
'79 Heater Temp Valve--Does anyone rebuild?
moosens replied to 79er's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
That's too easy Todd. Could put your flush inlet right there too,I guess. -
I found a guy holding some Koni shocks and inserts. Here's an idea of what he has below.I do want a set for my '73 coupe,so keep that in mind and you guys are welcome to pick thru the rest. Let me know what you want and I'll attempt the big lot buy,which he said would make it a great deal all around.as it is now,he wants a solid $49 per set for most models. In his stock: 1 pair of 2wd ('72-75) fronts-taken by me 2 pairs of 2wd ('76-79) fronts His suppliers has left: 2 pairs of '72-75 2wd rears -one set taken by me 1 pair of '76-79 rear for 2wd He also has some '80-84 pieces as well. Let ne know if you want what's left and hopefully we can work out a good deal with him.

Woody,I thought you were selling your '79? Those heater cocks used to show up on eBay.Now they don't. I sold one of the two I had,wish I didn't. Not sure about rebuiling those.Might be able to fabricate a new one with some tubing,solder,and a cock.Got any plumbing experience?
