Congrats to Andrew.....and I don't think I'll be calling now.:-p

Nah,but it can smell really great when it's all sealed up underside.Right now on a rainy day it'll get some dampness in the rear carpets because of a couple of really small holes just in from the rockers.I spary some Febreeze and it dries the moisture/moldy smell right out.Once it's dry it has no odor at all,really. This is the second car I've run with such low mileage.The first one was a '76 DL that now resides in Sweeden with around 35k

Unfortunately Dunkin spead themselves further,and firstly throughout the northeast.Long before KKKrispyKreme. To me,Starbucks stinks,and is yuppie infested... Krispy has decent donuts,but not a big item on my list.Kind of like one guy said,a couple of times a year is enough. Dunkin isn't all that great either,but certainly convenient. The best donut shops up here are the few mom 'n pop places or some small chains like the Doughnut Inn,which I believe just busted up or sold out....:-\ My brother owned a dognut shop and I actually helped him get going...yup,I went in at 2:30AM and made dognuts,etc.. for a little while.The best places use veggie lard,not the crap that the big names use...critter lard,not nearly as healthy. As for coffee,once you've been to Italy it's all just a replica here.I hit my local small store to support small business and forget about trying to get "the best" or a certain "feel" for a coffee.Get it,drink it,and get to work!!Arrrrrrrrrrr. so what's this about a Subaru in a commercial?????

Tim Horton's is great while in Canada,but the good old DINER of the northeastern variety is the place to be after the bars close....well,that is if hunger is the priority.

you turkey!!! Back atcha sweety....:cool:

I'll be calling around 5:30 your time...

They worked pretty good after tossing in your master switch...but now they are a little slow,and sometimes some of them just don't budge,then maybe on a good day they'll spring to life and do something like get stuck down with a stiff nothwesterly on a 20 degree morning. But that's life,nodoby can ever expect these things to work perfectly for long.Come springtime I'll pull the switch go over it,as with the whole system.Probably a bad ground. The driver's window...knock on wood,has been perfect. Thanks for looking everybody!

Hood River??? Windsurfing!!!!!!!!!!!! Doooooooooooooooooooooood!!! August what????

Not yet.He said he'd keep trying.He was having trouble uploading them.

Loving taking care of this car.I really hope Connie gets it back and one day can fix the body flaws.For those not knowing,this car is in my possesion but will eventually go back to Connie,a.k.a. Bucky92. Snugged up the exhaust today....happy,very happy. Did some brake work this past weekend.Tranny dealt with a while back....all better. Sorry to brag.It's just been a minor roller coaster ride but now things are really starting to iron out. I actually enjoy an automatic Subaru!!!.....presently. Just turned 37k.....interior is nearly flawless. Kids love the sunroof.They're really into riding around in something that is unique.My son just doesn't understand why people drive newer "tanks" when they can drive an old Subaru.....what can I say? Here you go,Connie!! Keeping it nice for you honey!

Not true. As I've posted a few times,there's one right here in CT.My friend owns it. thanks for the email.....looking forward to pics.

Yup,,,cough,,,,what he said....cough.... Todd says they stink,so to me there's no more discussion.:cool: I do have a blue dash that I'm very proud of.Still would like the mythical perfect dash.Mary found her's so who knows.

Yeah,let's bring this post back around to the ff-1....thanks for contacting me.We'll talk more,soon. I'm begining to think that an ff-1 is the most rare of all older Subarus now.Those Subarus from just after the 360 through the Stage II '77 and beyond are the toughest to find.And the pre-1300 stuff has to be near impossible to find now in this country.

I can't remember what the name of the place is where Jesse works.There's a campground around back,just down the hill. Is the old man retired yet or what?? Last I knew his wife was having some problems.You guys were just in the process of getting the addition workable. What's left up in the loft?? I got the plow he had,but he never was able to find the brouchure and install info he was sure he had for me.I'll manage when the time comes,but it'd have been nice if he had that brouchre,etc. And,the big question.....will they ever give up the 360 pickup???? By the way,I'm pretty sure you already know the guy with the ff-1.He's also around Holmgrens,or at least used to be,for parts,etc. Got anything vintage of your own? I wonder if we met when I was up there.First time I came up in my '78 4WD wagon....then in a rented truck,ready to take home the tons of stuff the parts guy was told to unload....then he disappeared and the old man got involved....then I got to come back and go through the loft.THAT was fun!I walked out the first time with a heap of goodies,then the second trip I scored well but he told me he wanted to deal the whole lot,no more little trips...then after keeping in touch,but a lapse of communication for a couple of months he tells me there's someone taking stuff in little bits and sellnig them on eBay.Well,that's exactly what he didn't want me to do back when,so I didn't pursue further.I went nuts up in that loft for at least one full day of time setting stuff aside,writing part numbers,etc....but I guess I just have to be glad I got the stash that I did. There's some nice 80's wheels up there too that I'd love to get. I'm going to send an email or PM right now.Check it please,before you reply.Thanks

Maybe. Do you ever get over to Holmgren's? I got some greal old stock out of there but I think most of the really good stuff is gone.He didn't have much left for 70's once I got out of there. I'm pretty much tied into Dan Perkins,ONLY because they have two of the best parts guys going,anywhere.I get a good discount like the shops too.Otherwise Dan Perk's is a lousy shop in my opinion.It's just the core of the organization.Great location,lots of stock,but not so great sales/admin. folks. Do you know Jesse from the small (sort of Subaru specialist)shop in Canterbury?

Hold the rear differential up.Shaped like a mustache.

Thanks! If someone goes please post if you'll grab some parts for me and I'll pass along a short list.I'll gladly toss you some money and meet you for the parts if you're not too far from NJ/Philly or the northeast corner of PA. The "Turbo triangles" sound like keepers,same for any good turbo EA82 axles.I could also use some good exhaust for the same.Need rear two pieces but would buy all if in great shape.That's good enough for now.If there's some good matching rubber on a good set of any type 13" wheels I'd like a set.

The '76 should have been a revised engine without the sleeves.Did he buy that new?

Follow the board,check for a meet in CT and maybe we'll get you a look at my friend's cars.Sorry,I've had a few weird experiences with some new folks lately I'd rather see you,meet you,etc. before passing along info and sending you somewhere.The guy with the ff-1 is a treasure himself.Get to know us and you'll probably get to know him too.He's not a board member.

This isn't "jemmy's" place is it? First East Coast meet of the year???

What years were you a Subaru Tech? Welcome!

Just sent a PM to you. I'm going to pass on this one.We figure to go to MD but might not make it to NC for a while yet. Still for sale! Extra for the front end protector. How much you need for that front guard from grampa??Sure looks nice.

Foxxy,I like that.Good luck with it Melis!!! Hope to see you again soon. BTW,the lady who owned this car....she's a fox. ...so are you Melis.

Southpaw eh??? That's me with my first love in my right hand and my thirsty sidekick Cresona Dave.

Thanks for the pics but it's still hard to tell. The 60k car I sold Andrew shows about the same on the outside. Worn brake/gas/clutch pedals are a good sign of age.Same for the seats and seatbelts. From that pic I'd say it's not a well cared for 28k that's for sure.
