Action,suspense,drama....I love it!!!!!! Glad to see you actually have the time,place,and patience to see your way through....and of course the extra choke.

Nah,I had a good group at my workshop a few years back.And we had some good groups at Pine Barrens and Carlisle. Here's the real picture of the northeast people: The autocross course we had: And the party after: :-p Sorry Eric,I'll make it up with some legit East Coast Subathusiast photos.

Very cool,thanks! Anyone do 2WD yet?

I say we all offer him $50-300 for it before the auction dies a miserable death. Well,you can dress it up but you can't sell it anywhere.:-p

Elad,Did I send you the grill??? I know I had it boxed and ready to go.Then things got crazy. If I didn't send it then it'll go out in April,after the first warm weekend with no rain.

Personal experience says do the SeaFoam flush.It gets a good amount of the old crap out.Don't forget that unless you pull and empty the torque converter you never actually flush all the old fluid out.But it's still a good thing to do it and not worry just yet that you didn't go all out. Give it time.And most of all make sure you fill it to the proper level. I read the wrong part of the manual and filled about halfway because I confused the amount needed for the differential.Then it acted MUCH better but still needed to get some miles done to make it shift excellent again. I also changed the modulator,which is super easy and around $20-30 tops.

'71-73 only as for the US. Brian,let's all talk together soon.

Andrew,tried to call you this AM...I see that you posted late last night.I hope you grabbed a hotel. I'd have called you more last night but I crashed out....hope you didn't do the same,while driving. Call me today,please.

The car was sold to Andrew,not me.I'll take the next one that shows up.

Sory guys,just getting the computer back up....I'll be back later.

Sorry,computer been down........ I'd really really like an FE engine.I was thinking about the one in Maine,sorry,couldn't get back to you this week.Just sent a message,we'll talk. Sent a message to Russ too...I'll call you two guys tomorrow,thanks. As for this FE,it's not going to be sold off the yard lot.They just won't do it since they've already turned over the VIN tag to the DMV. I would like the engine and tranny....anyone willing MUST get this tomorrow or Sunday...or before the 9th of February...or it'll be crushed. I'd also pay for a few other parts as well.Please contact me if you can make there and we'll talk.Thanks!

All 1977 Stage II thru 1979 Subarus have the same lower front door hinge.Hunt out a parts car online.It works really great.You'll be refered to yards with the car/part you need begining with those closest to you....sorry if you knew this already.

Exactly..... A gold/orangish grill ornament should be from a '77 Stage II. But,grills can be swapped.I think mine is a gold/orangish color and my car is listed as a '78. Red is 1978 and blue is 1979

Good luck with it.

:clap: This one is going to be the coolest,trust me.Look at that front bumper.It tells the story of the car,I'm sure.You're going to have a nice ff1 someday.

Here's my view of it. Pine Barrens is a great exercise for your beatable Subaru.We go slower with more people,but will run scary fast with a small dedicated group.It's sandy trails for the most part with a little water if you want it.No abuse is mandatory.It's as you like it. We've had folks run a NEW Outback,Baja,etc. but that's your choice.And really,there's not much to worry about if you can keep yourself under control.It's a great location for our NJ and eastern PA friend to meet up with the rest of the NYC/NE region.There's lots of great folks in NJ and PA!! Carlisle is kind of cool for people to show off something even if it's just a beater that you're proud of.There's no off roading,and more folks from VA,MD,the Tidewater area in general.It's a large grassy field with some asphalt...they do a small autocross...you can get in on Subarubrat's food/beer deal if you so desire...check the Carlisle post as it develops and check out CarsatCarlisle.com for the "Import/Kit-Replicar" show third weekend in May,every year. Now as for this region,well in the past I've been host to several meets at my old workshop.Those days are over,sorry to say.But I think if we choose a good State Park or whatever works somewhere around the MA/CT line not far from I-91 it'd be the most central location to those of us from Maine through eastern NY.It could also be a short ride for folks from Bong Island,and northern Jersey. If you guys are interested in a good yard run day we try to hit some PA yards but it's an early and long day for me driving from Bridgeport so it'd be even longer for you guys.We usually hit Harry's at least,but also hit yards in Alentown,and west of there before going up towards Harry's in Hazelton,then home using I-84,usually.Check for yard run posts as they happen.I usually start a post a couple months in advance. Shall we start a kick around-location inquiry post for New England?? WagonsOnly's backyard might be the best place. It's already a Subaru museum!

I've used aluminum foil in a pinch.Just make sure the large one (#4) is the one you use the foil on and have your fan switch on #4 all the time. Yes,it's redneck,but it'll keep your toes warm and windshield clear on the way to the yard to get the real thing.

Carlisle is an East Coast Meet for sure.But the guys from Maine and up north will have a real hard time swinging it without paying hotel,etc. costs. So,we need one here,somewhere.

I had two '75 wagons side by side,one 2wd and one 4wd and Russ is correct.They're different animals after the firewall...and even the radiator support as well. But, when it's lifted I don't think it'll matter....but please don't lift it if it's got potential for restoration.:cool:

Oh,I'm pretty sure Todd would tell you an automatic wagon isn't so bad.

Same for all of New England.I went through the members list,or at least up the letter "N" looking for old members that I've met and noticed tons of New Englanders who have anywhere from 0 to 3 posts.Many folks must come by,search archives for their needs,and by the time they'd normally stop by again they've bought their next car.My guess,since we turn over vehicles so quickly up here. We'll be trying to get a New England meet together later this year.

Cool,this could be the one I really have some fun with. Andrew....still need to go to VA???

Head alignment tool for holding the head inplace while you get the bolts started,etc. If it were like $5 I'd get it. It's a nice item to copy as well. I completely understand....but please,don't toss out even the simplest looking seal installer,etc....please.When the time comes I'll be sure to scan/copy any pages you need from all my old manuals to determine each tool as best as possible.

Thanks!! Did you look it over at all? Chesterfield Auto Parts Co 5111 Old Midlothian Tpke Richmond, VA 23224 (804) 233-5484 I'll be calling on Monday. Jon,you weren't looking for an FE....

yup,that's it.
