Sorry for the loss. Where in NC are you located?

My opinion from experience here on the east coast is that $350 front to rear is expected,and not too bad.We all want to pay less but I've never been able to do a front to rear exhaust job for less than $300.Add hardware and gaskets and you're right around $350 evey time. Good luck,let us know what you find because I need to do at least 2 cars complete.

Qman is holding mine.Go see it or ask him to send a pic. before it heads east.

Bitchin,but all touring wagons deserve a roof rack.my 2 cents.

Some NAPA stores are very good.All depends on the personell.My local actually had turbo axles in stock. I get a pretty good deal at the dealer so I just *try* to get all my parts there.Milt,let me know what you need if you have a hard time.We are absolutely going to eastern Maine in July.Hope to see you on our adventure.

Did you block up the ports in the heads where the carb has "plumbing" for the emissions/EGR?Those are the holes on the exhaust port facing outward towards the side of the car. Just something I know you have to do when using the carb's heads under the SPFI-been there,done that.

Pardon me but did I have a post here that got yanked for some reason????

Andrew is a good kid.He's young,and in college at a young age.I also know that he has not been on the board much lately. Boz,you're kidding right?Some of us communicate and set up deals that have allowed for some extra time.I'm almost all caught up personally,just have Kurt and Witte to wrap up.They both understand,or so they have told me. Back to Andrew,for $6 and lost packages I don't think it's worth calling him out for here on the board.I'll take him on my team anyday.He's a good kid but has a lot to deal with right now.I'll pay the stinking $6 if you really need it back dude.What was the part you wanted again?Feel free to email me and mention this post.....I'll hook you up if possible to cover my homeboy. BTW,you have a **BRAT DOOR HANGING AROUND MY SHOP**....for quite some time now on the stipulation that "you'll make it down someday,etc".....stop down already and you pass right by Andrew's on the way down.We ALL sometimes take a little too long to get to things it seems. OK,let's all make peace and pass the pipe.The New England guys are dropping like flies in New Hampshire after mud season. Brian,email me and I'll work everything out.

Good luck Dave.Gee,I'm surprised nobody brought up those "issues" you need to work out first with all these characters here.

Thanks for the offer but I am booked at the Hapton Inn in North Ashland through the company,etc. Leaving in a few minutes.See you guys on Friday. Won't be much fun time during the day.

Flowie-"the ticket" means it's a good thing.Parault is OEM.......Original Equipement per Manufacturer...or something close to that. Lucky me I have both genders to deal with,EA81 and EA82,both soon,very soon.

Welcome Hope you can make it to Carlisle for the import show. See you there or join us for a yard run soon.

Jon, You'll be on I-95 coming from the west,or should be.Take exit 40,left at the end of the exit,go up to the light and take a right onto Woodmont Rd..On the left you'll see a Shell gas station,a Drunkin Dognuts,and a small industrial park.I'm in there-230 Woodmont Rd.-#41-C in wonderful Milford,CT Last night was a towel waver,I gave up and actually got sleep for a change.So now I'm ready to rip,but have some family stuff,etc. to do this AM I will indeed be there late AM like 11:00 and then break for a lunch back home if I'm still alone.I'll leave a note-if I remember-otherwise just assume I'll be right back.I'll PM my cell phone # As for the parts,stop and hang/help and I'm sure I can let them mighty mighty cheap....like $10 ea. or so....you know the deal,I'm no stiffy,and appreciate any help in these times so I'll even say just take them as long as we kick some butt. All doors will be open and lots going on today.Anyone is welcome to stop by. I'm going to be there all day-except for maybe from 1-3PM....if you get there around then take a ride by the water and see the young ladies tanning and strutting......but remember to come back!!!!!

I'll put on some Romanian violin music for you....I mean us. only in my case it's a Parault oil pump.Only got about 2 years if that,from it.Paraults are usually the ticket. What make was your H20 pump? Cheers

food thread,we need a food thread

gabba gabba,i'll be cranking up the tunes and howlin at the moon tonight bruthuhs n sisters.been working way too many hours.losing usmb friends by the minute....could use some hang out help,light duty or as involved as you want it to get.i have all sorts of activities to take part in. might be an all nighter but we'll see.

sorry marck,that was my slogan and don bucket has ridden pine barrens with us...he owes me some royalties like a hand full of stickers.haven't seen him here in a while.his accomplice "flash" can still be found lurking about the usmb.

sorry but you have to start real low like "i can get it towed away for free''. if it were on the road start at $100 East coast rules apply here kids.

25 RIGHT ON!!!! and #25 from CT!!! I drove a Cosworth Ford Sierra (Taurus here in US I think).My cousin has been Northern Italy's top Ford dealer and I was there in '90 when the whale tail Escorts were so new/rare they only had one and would not let me drive it after letting me drive the Seirra. Those Cosworth Escorts must make hair grow.

There's a bunch of us who will register the 25th car as our second or third car. BUT,it'd be cool to see another board member sign up thier first car and crack the big 2 5 Scott K. is Wagon78's name and I didn't see it listed. Attn:We are now in possesion of an official USMB calender car.THat's right,Chris L. has sold the '84 wagon to me-or my sister inlaw.This could be my second car registered if I can find a driver. Then there's the '87 Turbo wagon looking good enough to eat off of......Driver's Wanted:-p

Wagon78 has told me he IS registered. One mo!

Sure will Joe.Ive' been working lots of hours.Hopefully this weekend I can get a lot done. Welcome to the board as a member.

Yes,I have some fenders,a hood,etc.Thanks for offering. I've been called in for a rush job so I'm working lots of hours all of a sudden,have both my cars down,trying to make an '84 wagon road ready for my inlaws,etc. so it's tough to say exactly when I'll be able to do this now. Fear not,I'm still doing this,just not sure of day or time.

Update and correction: I AM bringing a lasagne and then some even if we don't get the 25. Sorry to sneak it(the post-link to Carlise) in there like that but we'd really like to get a good cross-section of Subarus.All years and models welcome.Come see my '78 4WD wagon or a lifted Brat that deserves to be in the glossy magazines,or a few less than perfect but very unique Subarus. There were Volvos and Saabs from the 90's to present last year....are we going to stand for that???? Show your Impreza or Legacy.Show your Baja or Forester.It's a great day,you'll love it and see cars to drool over.

Open answers/replies,etc. to the group: Yes,the lasagne will be there barring any unforseen disasters. I've got a double burner Coleman camping stove. Also have a monster sized cooler-well at least mighty big. Most of us attending are not very rich and to be quite frank,are mostly all on a tight budget.Don't sweat it,bit do try to contribute if you can.Steal some supplies from the company/office lunchroom,etc.... Meeting for a beer sounds good to me on Saturday night.As long as the kids can be sedated properly I'm sure my wife won't mind if I go out for a little while. Perhaps once we're settled with the registration we can get an actual account of food and supplies being brought so we can see what we'll still need to bring. My lasagne should cover at least 20+ single servings.Might make more,we'll see.Food rules! ...one more thing.Wagon78 where are you??????????
