Kick starter....bitchin!!!! Just curious,have you made out a last will and testament? Rubber side down Bud,good luck.

Yikes!!!!!!! Damn near fell out of my chair. Onward Christian soldier....onward!!!!

That's a little outrageous in my opinion.....sounds like a scam. I want a tailgate wagon too but no way will I cough up 4grand for one. Hoax.Stay away.Listen to wise old Ed.

Thanks Joe.Are you up for a Pine Barrens run in your Brat?I'm hoping on another trip before December.

Pat,I'll have that window in a couple weeks for sure.I don't think I have one right now though.

Pat,I don't think I have that Gen I Brat window.I know where one is sitting in Maine and the guy is holding it for me.I need another week or so to be able to get a weekend run up there.If you can hang tight the window is yours free and I'll cover shipping.Thanks again for all your help with the '73

In no particular order...... Damn,Johnny's dead too.... Ted,I sent you diaphram for the shifter the other day. Bard-the C drive is full and dopey me,I delelted some system stuff....it'll all work out with local help...I think,but thanks and if I do need help I'll surely let you know. Ed-thanks,yes she contacted me before my computer went south....I can probably help her a little.....and maybe really make her day if I score this particular 48k Gen I Brat in Maine.It has rust but has my blue dashboard that I need,which will allow me to release the near perfect black dash I have sitting around. Thanks for all the nice comments.Gotta fly...see you all soon.

Russ,can you post a pic so us gen I abd Gen II owners can distinguish,if there's any difference?

LOL!!!! HeyJim,give me a call later if you can.I'll be out at the hell hole from around 8:30-11:30 I have an original California Go-Ped...love it except I chuncked the rear doing curb jumps,and pushing it through my personal road corse(course).Need wheels!!!!!help!!I wonder if maybe I should convert so I can use up some old Subaru parts.yuk yuk.....

Pat,I'm still scratching up the dough to get the '73 back here.Thanks for your patience. Jerry,i sent you the d/r 4spd shifter boot/console,enjoy! Paul BTW,I think my brother put that same early d/r tranny into my '78 Brat back in '83 or so.

Hey ho,let's go.......testing one two three four!!!!!!!testing..... using a Mac from wagonsOnly......many thanks Elwood!!!! Sent out the shifter boots.....to Subynut in AZ and the D/R top shifter boot to Jerry...... Sorry for my absence.Look for more later. Ciao! Paul

THis weekend....Saturday.....I'm going down Friday night with my son.

Man,I call the RX the buy of the month.....in MAY!!! Ahh,the east coast..... Bump! Who's in for a Pine Barrens run besides me and my son?I'll probably take the '84 "USMB calender car".

Parts????Anyone willing to snag a few things? Sehag is looking for a dashboard,*_so am I_*if it's blue and not cracked.Willing to cover time and shipping. Also interested in axles,and probably a few little items too.

At this point I'm going down Friday night and camping.Not sure where just yet but hopefully right there on the Barrens. Geez,I'm starting to miss EJ and Dennis.... Anyone who expects to go on Satuday please email me and I'll give you my phone number.Please do the same if you have a cell phone.

Hi guys,welcome back Ed. No need to stockpile,as I stated,just keep those specific parts I mentioned,and others in mind when you see a car that offers them.Perhaps you're only there for one part and you see these others....it's a definite resale item if I mentioned it. I was going to post the exact same example Ed gave of certain items like the headlights not being worth the effort in the longrun. One thing to keep in mind though.This vintage Subaru or older Subaru for economic reasons thing is catching on here on the east coast.I'll bet those headlights will be able to sell for $30 once again,but infrequently since it'll be rust zoners paying the higher ticket.Don't toss them out just yet.

OooooOoooo Ooooooo,,,,have to run out right now...ooooo oooo talk to you later.

Ahhh,well that's cool.We need to import a whole boatload of them from place like Ed's. Cool Mary,hope to meet you guys sometime.One member here typically has a dunes permit for the Cape."ByTheSea"-a.k.a. Brad-big wheeled Loyale wagon,that's him,on the Cape during season,Belchertown when school is in. Talk to you soon. Paul

Cool! Mary,where in Mass. are you guys?I've got a '78 4WD wagon.There's only a few of us left in New England with these 70's cars....but you knew that.

Oh,I don't expect anyone to go buying up these in hopes of resale.Just keep it in mind so if you see a car that has the parts I mentioned please let us know.I'd gladly send you the dough for any of those as needed. Right now I need the EA82Turbo exhaust from rear of the downpipe.Emissions will be back here soon so I need to be ready. Anyone trying to keep an EA82 D/R in the rust zone is going to need that linkage.We'll also be hunting the fuel pumps,etc. as they are way too expensive from the dealer and the store equivalents generally aren't much cheaper. Gas piping,brake lines too.I know most of you probably wouldn't want to mess around but since the yards drain the tanks it shouldn't be to hard. For us,the rust just encrusts the brake and gas lines-when cars aren't attended to properly-and nothing sucks worse than not being able to stop while your car is on fire from gas dripping on the broken exhaust...... Anyone parting a car leisurely in their yard would be kind to save these for us folks in need.

bump HINT cough cough....

New England is where Subaru built its reputation.This is,or was,the "other hot spot".Never mind all the B/S,we who live here know the deal. I can honestly say that I often get FREE to $150 running cars with under 150k. I'm surprised.I thought the western hills of NC had a great Subaru population around Boone,etc. Perhaps it's like up here these days.Subarus just don't sell as well as they did in the 80's.There's just too many choices now for 4WD and you know these well to do folks up here "have to" have the Mercedes or Volvo or Lexus,etc.....so there's far less Subarus per capita than ten years ago.Still see plenty of them, but the "box" era (Loyale style) ruled the roads in their hay day.

I'd love to but doubt I can get away with everything else we have going on right now.Thanks for the invite.

Are any of you (hear crickets chirping) willing to join me on Saturday August 28th? I'm probably going to go down Friday night and camp if the weather is good.Otherwise meet at the diner in Red Lion at 9AM or so?? Talk to me.

My sentiments exactly. NZ is truely one destination I'd like to arrive at someday.After hearing all the vintage Subaru talk I'm even more intrigued.
