Been sitting for years?Offer to take it for free after the "I see it's been sitting here forever it seems"line.If they say no then ask what it would take and let them know that you can't get parts for it and that it'd be a novelty project for you. As for the $2500 one,that better have something serious under the hood for that price.I did sell my '77 sedan to a guy in Sweden for $2003.It had 37k and a museum quality interior. Go in LOW,as in "I'm doing you a favor".....but I also know that they pay more for scrap out your way so you may have to compete against what a yard will pay them. Good luck

Speaking of people NOT following through....
moosens replied to moosens's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Northguy,no sweat,no offense taken.Your post did trigger me though.Got me to thinking how slow I am and that I kind of suck at getting things done quickly so that's why I started off like I did. I also agree with the scamsters these days.We all need to watch out.As soon as the economy goes south the dirtbags get to scamming. Bottom line on my end-family first,Subaru stuff a little behind them.And sometimes it seems like I'm never going to get things going then all of a sudden I pull an all nighter and blast through it all. My other bitch was about people going to third base and not scoring the run....I'm sure some folks just forget or realize they can't cover the price,etc. A little communication is all I ask if you can't or won't complete a deal. Onward!!!!!! -
Hey guys,it's been mentioned in several posts lately and I just want to say a few words. #1-on my end,if I need to be reminded of something then DO IT.I always tell EVERYONE that when we begin a deal of any type.I can't keep track of everything here and stay on top of it all by just one email or seeing one post reply here.So,if someone feels I dropped the ball simply email me and we'll talk it over like ADULTS. #2-there's been a few people lately who actually emailed and said they were sending money and going to complete deals who HAVEN'T.....if you wish to back out that's fine,just say so.If you just want my home address to add me to some junk mail B/S then go scratch your backside and don't EVER bother me again. No need to reply,no need to apologize.If you feel this is directed at you,I apologize.This is a general message pertaining to all who want to make deals with me. Keep after me through email and I'll get your stuff going as long as you've paid for it.Sometimes even if you haven't. And on that note I sincerely apologize to those who have paid me and have not recieved their goods.I'm trying and will make a true effort this coming month to settle up. Namely: Witte-the 5 lug conv. stuff Syrinx-rear slider Todd-70's auto tranny(not paid but that's not necesary so sleep well)...anyone else please email me,but I think that's it. Believe me I feel terrible every time I think of this stuff.I truely appreciate your patience and understanding and you have to know I don't intend on burning anyone.

I've got it.It's stored in MS Word.If you need it email me and I'll reply with it. moosens at yahoo dot kahm Urethane Transmission Mounts- EA-81 Series Transmissions The urethane used is a tough, temperature resistant, and comparatively hard to other urethanes. With excellent damping properties, the transmission will run more efficiently, there will be more power surge to the halfshafts during acceleration, and off-road performance is greatly enhanced. Installation The kit includes two urethane inserts to be used with the existing transmission brackets. The rod that skewers the mounts are tabs to be bent in place during installation- Pulling these rods out or not bending them during installation could result in loss of the insert during heavy use- they are there in order for the mounts to work properly. 1) Relieve the engine pitch rod, so that the adjusting nut on either side is free to turn by hand, in other words, let the engine/transmission go to it’s natural resting position. 2) Loosen the two 12mm bolts that fasten the mount to the transmission, but do not remove the bracket that connects to the transmission directly. 3) If your mounts are completely shot, the stock mount should slide out- this is the part surrounded by the C shape piece bolted to the crossmember. If they are still bonded, loosen the 14mm nut from the crossmember to completely remove the mount as one unit. 4) With a razor blade, sharp pocket knife or steak knife, etc, cut away all rubber that is bonded to the mount. The points of interest are the surfaces of the bracket that have the two 12mm bolt pattern on it, and the lower-inner surface of the C bracket that mounts to the crossmember. With a wire brush, sandpaper, or file, remove the rubber until bare metal is showing all the way around. This is especially important for the lower-inner surface of the C bracket. 5) With all surfaces clean, re-mount the C bracket onto the crossmember and give it a few threads so it is loose. 6) Push the two 12mm bolt bracket into the slot of the insert, making sure that it is orientated so that the rod is facing up. 7) Push the bracket/insert combo back into place, and align the insert to the center of the whole assembly- this may take some work being a tight fit. 8) Bend the ends of the rod upward until they are pointing straight up. 9) Bolt the bracket down- depending on the condition of your vehicle, you may need to place a floor jack underneath the transmission to get the holes to line up. 10) Bend the rods the rest of the way, making them flush with the upper surface of the mount until they do not move or rattle. In the event the mounts do not fit, write or email for your money back: Chad Van Liere 448 E. Seneca Tucson, AZ 85710 cvan@gci-net.com I tried to copy and paste it here...hope it worked -
Workin on it bud...workin on it....I'll lok it over and see if I can reply with a decent answer.

THe guy with the urethane ones was "Cvan".He made a few but not many for sale.He donated the drawing so others can make them. Up here my local dealer can get whatever I need in a few days tops.Usually the next day or 2 days.That's including stuff from the other region's warehouses like the west coast,etc. Call Perkins Subaru in Milford CT for kicks.If I think of it I'll stop by or call tomorrow and check price and availability.We all need them sooner or later.I might even be able to get some produced in urethane if we have enough interest. -
Maybe you guys will get it and we won't.Just the opposite of last year when you guys couldn't buy the white stuff and we had tons of it. Happy trails!!!!!

need:83brat fuel pump
moosens replied to 83projectbrat's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I have a used one but I would say go for a new one from Subaru.I know it's more but it works and only cost $53(I do get a frequent customer discount). Even a new one from the stores would be more recommended than my used one.You can have mine used one for $5 plus shipping if you want it.But of you're in a hurry I'm not the guy to deal with right now.I'm way behind on getting stuff out. -
Yes Tommy,unfortunately I've been extremely busy.I'll get to you ASAP

What fun would that be? As I've heard the 5spd does work.As for parts YES,you should still be able to get them if you know the right people Digi-dash....well,there has to be something that won't work right or it wouldn't be an old Subaru,post Gen I. THere's also an '83?wagon I'm getting this week and a 2WD XT w/spider intake tomorrow or Wed.. I'm also getting an '88 or 89 3door w/D/R 5spd all 3 for under $251 The '83 waggin has a cut rad. support but comes with multitudes of extra parts. The XT is very decent,super clean inside,very small rot spots,mostly solid and runs like a muthuh. The 3doors is a rot box with minimal nutritional value. I'd get the EA81Turbo sedan but I'm once again overbooked.:-\

Guys,I took up the collection after you all left.It's for the guy on the west coast's family.(Hunting accident.)If interested in making it one group donation send to me if you can chip in.If I don't hear from you I will just send in the total from myself,EJ,Dave,and Steve. I'll be writing a check to Mudrat's wife who is putting the money into the memorial fund.

:lol: :lol: ...he loves it!!!!!!

Sounds great but will you still have a place to live if you bring it home? THere's an '83? Turbo sedan here in Bpt.,you may have heard us talk about.It's still there,not terrible shape but tranny is shot.It could help you with your latest find if you get it.Just a thought. For about what you paid me for the coupe you could have a turbo sedan with lots of extras.The turbo in Bpt. was at $200 but I'm pretty sure they'd dump it for $150,maybe a little less if I catch them on a good day.
