Thanks everyone. I'm sure my neighbors love it to, since I was out until about 3A.M. the other morning grinding, sanding, banging the dents out of the tailgate and priming it.

Yeah, I have always liked the Brats and finally found one around here. I have'nt seen one around here for a few years now. A coworker of mine has a buddy who had this one, my wife gave me the ok and I bought it.

Thanks, I'm still not sure if I will put chrome ends on it or not. I have thought about it but I need to do a few other things to it before I start dressing it up. I had to have the exaust done to get it inspected, so I figured I would do it the way I wanted, instead of doing it twice. I just put rear brakes and brake hardware kit on it.

In the first pic you can see the tail pipes. It's got the stock converter, single muffler and runs a single pipe to dual tailpipes, which I just had put on. I hope to fix it up to be a good looking daily driver. It is pretty quiet, the 4hi & 4lo both work good, the tranny shifts pretty good but has the normal sloppyness in the shifter. It hasn't been on the road since 1995 until the other day when I got it licensed and inspected.

Finally got around to posting some pics of my 84 Brat. The link is http://photobucket.com/albums/uu80/aaronmchenry/my%20brat/

I don't know who has it but at the show it looked to be a really dark blue, in the pics it looks black. It looked really nice. I liked to see all of the Subarus there. I might be partial to the brats because I have one.

As yall can see I'm kinda partial to the brats.

All right, here is the link to some pictures I took at Carlisle. The link is http://s635.photobucket.com/albums/uu80/aaronmchenry/

If all goes well, I get my brat done and my loving wife will let me, hopefully we can bring the brat next time.

Hey everyone, it was nice to meet some of you at the show. Sorry I had to leave so soon, hopefully next time we can hang out longer. We had to make a few stops on the way home and got to relax at home at about 11:30pm:slobber:, long drive. At least now I know a few faces to go along with the names. The pictures I took turned out good, unfortunately the pic I took of the USMB members didn't come out that good. There was a flap of material from the tent that blew in front of some of the members when I snapped the pic. If I can figure out how to scan my pics in and post them, (haven't done it before), I will. Again, nice to meet you guys and gals.

My wife wanted to know if everyone that is going will be together and will USMB have signs up. We deffinately want to meet some members. Thanks Aaron:)

I hope to meet you there. I wish my brat was street legal but I haven't had time to work on it, do to having to work:(

My wife,son,myself and 2 of our friends are coming to Carlisle on the 16th, but I can't bring my Brat, it's not street legal yet. Hope to meet some members there. Aaron

I can email them to my hotmail acct. I have to go to work in a little bit, but I will try to get pictures in the next couple of days. Nice rides. Mine isn't a show stopper but I hope to make it a decent looking daily driver. Thanks for the info about the pictures. Aaron

How do I go about posting Pics here? All I have is my cell phone no digital camera.

Change of plans everyone. I guess we are coming to Carlisle instead of going to the beach. My wife, son, myself and our friends that were going to the beach with us are all going to come up on the 16th. I'm not going to be able to bring the Brat though:(. I hope to meet some of the members of this site there. I'll probably be wearing a neon greenish yellow Summer Knights Cruzin Assoc. shirt, which is the local car club I have been a member of for about 5 years. We are having our 22nd annual show on 5-31-09 at Jackson's Mill 4H camp in Weston WV. Everyone is welcome. There is a small entry fee for those wishing to show a car, I think it's only $10 or so per car. and it's uaually free for spectators. For more info you can call Mike our club president at 304-269-5328. We hope to one day have the biggest show in WV.

The odometer is reading correct so I don't think it is the cable, but when I pull out of my driveway the speedometer needle spins around 2 or 3 times and then rests strait down. Could it be some kind of interference with the magnet on the speedo?

I have an '84 brat and the speedometer just spins around when I start driving it. The odometer seems to be correct but the speedometer doesent read:-\. Any idea about what the problem is and a way to fix it? Any help would be appreciated:grin:. Thanks, Aaron.

Thanks for the welcome, I'm from Weston WV. One of my friends and I were talking about the show in PA and would like to make it but our wives are dragging us to Myrtle Beach during that time:rolleyes:. but we have had this planned since Oct. of last year. Oh well, may be able to make it next year if we can get the time off from work. My wife works at a medical hospital, while I work at a psychiatric hospital. My friend and his wife that are going to the beach with us both work at the same place I do, and my son will be 3 by then. He has had his first car since before turning 2. My parents bought him an '83 T-Bird. He's the only grand kid on both sides so I'm in for it. He already likes cars, girls and horses.

Hello all. I have viewed part of this site before and decided to join. I have an '84 Brat that I hope to make a daily driver. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated. Just wanted to say hi to everyone.
