Nice score! That was for sale in the PNW as I recall.

Found some NOS rubber - Repro Discussion ?
moosens replied to moosens's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Original from an old dealer stock. Not for sale at this time. Yes , I have many bits for early Subarus but this month I have no time. Make a list of needs and send it to me. Also , check out Facebook - I am not a big fan of it but there are older parts being exchanged by a few people these days. Old School Subaru Group And - Classic Subaru Network . Best of luck ! There's more out there than ever for vintage parts. -

Identify Bearing Found in Clutch Kit
moosens replied to Sapper 157's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Maybe those early 1800's too? But the 1800's generally start the next style of pilot bearings. -

For 1600's with narrow cases. 1976-79 or so. -
Aww man you mean you want me to ship stuff ??? Yes , I ship stuff. Recent Colorado shipments were a vintage radio console for 77-79 and Gen I Brat , and a vintage high rise center console for early 80's. So maybe you're in a lucky state. I'm holding off on eBay these couple of weeks past but will be listing more very soon. But avoiding eBay fees is a big plus. So I suggest if you own a 70's car or Gen I Brat to make your Wish List post within that thread. With one centralized thread it is then much easier for me to match parts up with owners. You are also welcome to send that list to me and I will add it to my phone now that it's so easy to collect such info that way.

Before the mfg date of maybe Oct 77 or so they used the U joint axles. That large skid plate was an option. I have one too somewhere in my stuff. You said it was welded but it wasn't originally. It bolts to the tranny crossmember and the iron 2x4 front end protector like on my 78. Good luck with it ! One sweet front bar and plate there. To me that's worth easily $250 right there. Cheers!

For your gen one Brat or 1972-79 sedan , wagon , and HT The Coupe is just a bit larger in the upper ears. Some folks have stretched the one in stock to make work on Coupes but no promises. If that's what you have - Coupe - then search threads or talk to Subaru3-Todd who has done it. I may need to correct this but the PRP item number should be WCR-288 Precision Replacement Parts Moderators - Sticky this ??

It does look bad at that left rear wheel arch but the rest to me says "save me!!!". I see the Country horn thing in the pic. Look at the pull switch and look at the backing plate or whatever the switch comes out of. And no I'm sorry but I don't think you'd have an easy time putting tha nose on a Brat. This body style ended the year before the Brat came.

Straight front bumper and decent enough front valance. At the very least I'd expect a Stage I owner might want to adapt that face onto their squared light , squared bumper , butt ugly car.

Just looked at the pics. Holy dook man !! From here that car is a keeper.
-
You didn't see the switch that literally says " city/country" ??? It's real , not joking. Look closer.

If the car is solid grab it if you can. Here in the States its historic and desirable. If it's a rust beast then any front bar or protector , and generally anything worth salvaging. I realize it's not something you need to stockpile but please give it a good look over and report on seats , plastic , etc. That should have a 1400 with liners not wet sleeves. Those engines are very rare. They were the engineering exercise preceding the next 1600. Only the 4wd wagons got those. Front grill and round orange lights sell. Rear hatch in solid shape is a general rarity. And the infamous "city horn / country horn". Check out the switch on the dash for that. Funky and cool. I need to replace my '78 soon and was hoping to go to a 75-77 Stage I 4WD , so please if it's REALLY solid let me know and I might leap. I'll be in AZ in a month maybe less. If it can be had I might be the guy tugging it eastward. Thanks for posting!

Yeah but it's the back side , upper vinyl that gets beaten from cargo. Got a pic of that? And can we consider that rust we see the only rust? How's the wheel arches (aprons)? And the rocker panels just rear of the front wheels? Does that mustache bar for the rear diff. have decent bushings or like most of ours - not healthy? Like I said , it's not a great time for me but my 78 does need to be replaced soon. And that info posted will really help other potential vintage victims.
