You spent $5K for it? Great that you are able to do that. But I presented a list of questions to the owner/seller and did not get a reply. Needless to say , he didn't post my questions either. I sure hope it works out for you. Good luck!

Was this the brat that just ended on eBay?

Any truth that they insist on it being garaged? My friend has had his little Lotus on classic Insurance for years and pays so little it'll make you cry. But he says (that they say) it HAS to be garaged. Of course , I've never seen insurance people physically check to see that the cars are garaged. I believe he has Hagerty too.

Those are rebuilds, not factory new. About as good as the average owner can expect. I'm really surprised you didn't bid higher on those. Now look at the cost you're looking at. You young folks often seem to think because they are old Subarus you're going to have parts land on your lap for dirt. Try Danny W. who is "drivesubies" here and "dannybreadman" on eBay. He has tons of new old stock from real Subaru stock, not a close out of an auto parts store. Or give me some time to dig. It's bitter cold lately and I have very little to no time at storage.

gen 1 brat fuel tank ideas
moosens replied to Uberoo's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Fuel cells are usually a good idea for many older vehicles. Check suppliers like SummitRacing ,etc..... http://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/fuel-cells/usage/road-race?SortBy=Default&SortOrder=Default&mbid=SRE102652 -
http://www.ebay.com/itm/subaru-1600-cylinder-heads-/221355224029?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3389ccabdd&vxp=mtr Set on eBay starting cheap and on the west coast. I really have little to zero time lately for my storage so if you need them quick I won't cry in you don't get mine. Good luck. If you don't win them I'll still be trying to get mine out this weekend , I hope.

And now my wife's Impreza crapped the tranny so I'm having to look for a car....but I'll do my best.Rain today with a mess on the horizon which'll ruin the afternoon for storage , but tomorrow looks to be better for the weather. I sure do want to blow out LOTS of items that I'm paying to store that I probably won't ever need now with my limited time for cars. LOTs of NOS 70's stuff too. Don't get excited , its just lots of small items some of which are for automatics and generally things that people won't go gah gah for. I have to find out if there's a buyer for these things or face the truth and make space via the dumpster.

EA71 Swapping Passenger Side Head
moosens replied to spicypeanut's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Yeah , something like 3.89 US quarts .... If you are going to remove the head , you will of course have to remove the intake. To avoid a bit of coolant getting the job messy you can drain the heads and thereby the intake manifold too , by removing the allen head plug underside of the head. Just draining at the lower radiator hose doesn't cut it. There will still be coolant above and in the head. I know we all try to avoid extra work but you really need to do this right. Take the advice above and expect to need some time to get it all done. Good luck. Headgaskets are available from "drivesubies" who is Danny W. Also known as "dannybreadman" on eBay where you'll find the factory headgaskets and more. -
1979 Subaru Brat Fuel pump no go
moosens replied to levears's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Where is that? Not really right to say it could be anything. Very limited. Please show me where my inertia switch is on my 78 wagon. Thanks -
1979 Subaru Brat Fuel pump no go
moosens replied to levears's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Alternator to V/R to fuel pump. the service manual recommends you replace the V/R and alternator at the same time. One guy here said "that's phooey" and that manuals lie sometimes ....granted there are supplements issued and service memorandums ....but I've had great success when you change both. Yes , I know you probably had both in great shape and are wondering how the alt. could go out but ....you tell us what you found , please. One wire is telling a story it seems. Check for break. Good luck. -
If you've sought parts from my stash ....
moosens replied to moosens's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
I unquestionably have at least one. Talk soon. Frozen up here right now. Minor break on Sunday into Monday then dropping back down. My wheels are all right up front for quick packaging. -

And AGAIN , I'm trying with THIS post thread to reach out to those who over the last couple of years have been in contact with me where I neglected to come through with parts and wheels I said I had but simply could not get to. I do appreciate that you new folks have needs and know your money is the same color. But please - given the title - allow me to reconnect with some folks who've already been hoping for certain items. Thanks. Have to check on door card but probably no Brat. -

Hey Rusty Brat , umm , please don't hijack my sales. Especially if you want something from me. Get back after the storm here. Ciao -

Windshield I have. Hood and bumpers yes but one or both might be at ctsuba's place. Front end protector - look at the old brochures. Iron 2x4 bumper with a top loop. Has provision for winch and super large skid plate. -

Interior ceiling liners? Me? Maybe we had some we could have gotten when ctsuba did his last major move , but I don't recall actually possessing any liners. If I do it's been stored folded in a box because nothing in my stock that large is exposed and flat. Was this really in our previous conversations in PM or ??? Ctsuba is probably the only guy I know who might have one. Drivesubies - Danny might too.
