'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.

If someone else goes by there check the "Wish List" thread,print it,and please consider making some money while helping someone out. :) I could use these parts assuming they're not cracking,pitted,chipped,etc.: Side mirror Air cleaner box complete Radiator if not corroded with overflow bottle shown Any good pieces of any windshield trim front or back Alternator AND brackets Steering wheel w/horn pad-cover Might consider some other parts from the interior. Elroy,if you're interested email or PM me and we'll talk.Thanks -

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? -

Hey,I just noticed that it's not far from Hagerstown.That's not so far out of reach at all,now. Are they open on Sunday? -

At his price it'll rust away to nothing.At that point he loses....actually,it's past that point.He lost. That car isn't worth $400 or anything close to it. THere's seemingly no interest in these cars anywhere near WV,so I don't know who's going to go out of their way for this one. I'll consider somehow stopping by if we can when we go on our little vacations this year,but it's kind of far out of the way for most of us with the older 70's Subarus. Most I think I'd offer is somethnig like $100 for anything I can walk out with (not just one trip to the car). -
Windshield gaskets Batch One ***Completed***

Paypal to moosens@yahoo.com Thanks very much.Don't forget to pay the CN tarrif.The last guy I sent somethnig to in CN apparently screwed FedEx and now they're breaking my stones because.My account is still in good standing,but I'm not sure for how long if that tarrif doesn't get paid.Sorry to cry...thanks again. -

Are there enough Aussies and Kiwis to order a lot of 25 or more? Even if there were several more we can always add to our existing order if you let us know quickly.Look into shipping.They could go into those large envelopes and travel reasonably safe.My zipcode is 06604 in CT USA so feel free to check and I'll do what I can to help you out.I'm near FedEx,UPS,and US Postal as well as other carriers like DHL,etc.. About how many 70's cars and 1st Gen Brumbys would you say are still going down there??....judging by what you see and message board activity,etc. The gaskets are made in Taiwan.Perhaps PRP can arrange a drop shipment from the manufacturer instead of crossing the Pacific. Just a thought. -

Bump for getting more sold before I jack the price through the roof. Seriously everyone,it's time to chime in for the discount. Here's the latest.I made the deal today. Derek from PRP called me back and just like I thought would happen they got word from their manufacturer that the price for 25+ of a run to would be $35.94 each. That's a total of $898.50 according to Derek.He also said something about them covering shipping to them.Shipping to me I belive I'm still paying for when the time comes.Should be six to eight weeks,maybe slightly more untill I get them here. So,getting back to the begining of my post,please everybody do your best to get one and cover the payment through Paypal,check or money order as soon as possible.Nearly a grand I'm laying out here,so you bet I'm not giving a discount after this summer. You guys who paid the original price can take your time and send the difference with the shipping when the time comes.No sense doing extra work,getting extra fees,etc....we'll even up down the road. You guys who need more time but are saying you're 100% sure you're getting what you said you have a solid two months.But,you should already be one month into your setting aside the dough.Not to play mommy here,but please guys,do what you can to make things happen.I've got bills,mortgage,kids,tuitions,etc,etc,etc......wrappnig up a grand of my money right now doesn't float well.Money's tight all around,especially in the northeast. Know somebody who might use one but hasn't chimed in??? Ask them please to check this post,even if you're pretty sure they did already. This windshield gasket fits wagons and sedans perfectly. It can be used on a coupe but as Todd has mentioned not entirely perfect,but he doesn't complain of leaks in his GF. Thanks for all your help with this effort. -

Cool,thanks,Jeff. They still showed one left in stock,but he wasn't betting on it being there.Nothing like fresh baked! -
HELP! Stray vacuum hose needs good home
moosens replied to bratgrl's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Check the top of the intake manifold on the passenger side.Just near the carb. I'll try later to see what's supposed to be hooked up to the other ends. -
I like dogs too,but you're killing me.....:-p Nice ride,good luck with it.

Cool,thanks Greg.Yes,I think you spoke to Jim firstly. They're checking to make sure the same gasket fits all the models we expect it to and then get back to me.But yes,it's rolling along.Let's just hope it doesn't roll back at us.I think we're all set. PRP might only run off an extra handful,not even a dozen,so mentioned Derek in conversation.But he did need to double check with his boss.At the price we're getting I could care less if they have some in stock.They'll run out again too,but I don't think I will. Let him get back to me to make 100% sure about the price.Shipping won't be much,probably $12 plus any tarrifs,etc. At this point I'm buying the lot and trusting enough folks come through. -
Jon, I thanked you in my "Stash that'll blow your mind" thread. But you deserve a lot more thanks,so here's another one that maybe you'll see. Thanks for the lead on the barn stash.So far,so good. OK,I'll try to incorporate a family weekend vacation somehow and see if we can take the family truck ('89 touring wagon). I know we're going to break something this time.Too many times off roading and never a real breakdown. Hope to see you guys there. Harry's too!!!

OK,then I guess gathering boxes,labels,a marker,maybe take some pictures if you can....then disassembly. Well,I guess now I have to work the plow I have into my '78 restoration. Seeing yours has certainly got me thinking about it.Thanks again for all your pictures you posted. We might be hitting the White Mtns for a weekend over the summer.Maybe we'll get over to see you.

Yes,check eBay. If you don't like eBay or refuse to deal with it,etc. I'll likely be able to help you out,or another board member,with a factory service manual.(FSM) I also have factory parts manuals too,right here handy. Where to start? If you're doing it 100% right,or as close as possible you should get a rotisserie to lift the vehicle up and be able to rotate it to EASILY work on the body....that is if you're doing the body. Am I getting too deep here? I'm not sure to what extent you plan on retoring or refurbishing the car. A 100% correct restoration is much more near impossible than probable.But you can get it looking really close to 100% and fabricate some rubber parts,etc. Have to cook dinner.I'll check back later.

I just bumped up his old thread.It' a pretty cool '79 4WD wagon with a plow. Be sure to contact me.If I forget who you are it's because you're kind of new here and I'm very busy lately.

Harrisburg PA Today!! Could use help/company
moosens replied to moosens's topic in Meet n' Greet. Your USMB Welcome Center
Nice talking on the phone to you guys.I had so much fun all by myself,wish someone was there to share the joy. Really it was a great day.After the first few wiffs of chicken poop and pee you don't notice it that much. Barn was nice and cool today!!He opened a huge double door right by that last bay.I backed my car right about up to the bldg.And then I opened the swinging "twelve foot drop" door for some crossbreeze.Very comfy. Naturally it was a real dose of energy to go through that ....err...crap,and be like a kid on Christmas day.I loaded the wife's Legacy and the Sears snail pod for full redneck effect.Car sat low but behaved mostly fine all the way home.Gas mileage really wasn't bad at all. Like you care,eh???:-p Well,like I said.......wish you were there.
