yes thanks freak, You could count me in for 2 rear gen 2 hatch gaskets. and just fyi last I checked you could still get the chrome trim pieces that go with.
where is that? I haven't seen them listed anywhere and I have called many companies about seals as well as the trim. BTW I will be screwed when I finally need to replace the rear window seal in the sedan. no group buy discount. only one company said they would do it and quoted $20k whether I ordered 1 or 1000.

I have to say I really like the seats from a 97 GT. I had to get the seat brackets modded a bit to compensate for the height adjustment which allowed me to put the seat further back and got much more leg room out of them. I cant reach the wheel or the shifter when it all the way back. they also have a permanent lean backwards which makes it more difficult to reach but also allows for more headroom.. take it all into consideration I am only 5' 10" and am thinking other imp/ forester based seats. Headroom and seats that sit more upright are what I think I really need.

Sorry to hear it Ben. I hope you can resolve this soon.

Your baby is coming along nicely! I too have swapped fuel tanks for future swap-ability. Fortunately I didn't have much rust at all so I hit it with a wire wheel and some some converter from Eastwood. Then undercoating. Now If only I could figure out whether I simply did not tune the Weber properly or if my foot is too heavy. I miss getting 35 mpg.
I forgot to mention that rather than dealing with all the other radio stuff there is another option if you listen to music from your phone more than the radio. Fusion MS BT-100 is a 12 volt stand alone Bluetooth receiver with RCA outputs. You can figure out your own way to use it to trigger a small amp or whatever but when the local stations here suck it has been a life saver. That is what I would do if I didn't want to cut my dash. Mine was already cut so I managed to plug into my current aftermarket radio. ( it's 20 years old so nobody is going to steal it). Anyway I found it on amazon for $40 or something close to it. I used one in my garage for a while.

Wow! I had forgotten about that meet up. I was there and I remember some of the face but not all.

you are correct about the Justy.. It was only the second I have seen in 14 shows that I have attended. And the first Tribeca that I can recall. As for the Ornament I have no idea Looks like pistons and connecting rods but I didn't really look until you mentioned it.

It is looking very nice Tom. Have you decided to keep it going then? You had mentioned selling that beauty.

Ok its been over a year and my few months has been delayed yet again. While restoring and rebuilding a bbq with cast iron grates that were in poor shape, I learned a few different ways to de-rust it, and should work fine for steel. Both take time but they do a fabulous job. If you have a bucket or tote big enough for your parts ( if not go get something ) a 50/50 solution of white vinegar ($2.50 a gallon @ Walmart). Next is a little more costly to set up but I believe it works faster is called electrolysis.. Search for it on youtube. Good luck. I do hope you are making good progress on your project aside from the rear end.

I am guessing you are in the northend.. There are a bunch of good shops. It really boils down to if you want to try a soob only shop or or just a good shop that doesnt stress you out. Either way good luck to you.

If it has electric choke make sure its plugged in and has power.. I had a similar problem .Beyond that change the jets and emulsion tubes to match your motor and retune the carb.

The spfi also needs the fuel pump fuel lines and the disty.

Thats it. I spent most of the day talking and hanging out instead of really looking over the cars.
