Hey guys, I've had a few Subies now and figured might as well say hi. Name's Corbett, I live in Duluth, MN. Brief Subaru history: my first Subaru was "The Frankenwagon" that I bought from Numbchux back a couple years ago. Sold it (and immediately regretted it) and bought a '92 turbo legacy. It let me down in the middle of winter so I made an emergency p.o.s. purchase which turned out to be the best $400 I ever spent... an '87 GL hatchback. Sucker had no power and a clutch that was basically non-existent and the body didn't have a solid spot on it, but she made it through the winter and into spring where it finally died up in Gilbert, MN wheelin' with the big boys... and even then it still made it back to the trailer on its own power. Ended up parting out the GL, selling the t-leg and purchasing the totally rust-free GL10 I have now from a guy up in MI. The motor was blown, but it came with most of the stuff I needed for an EJ swap. I got the rest of the necessary parts and put em all together with lots of help from Chux. The EJ that came with it ended up being really tired and leaking oil so I'm actually going to go pick up a fresher one this afternoon. I also just made a pretty solid investment in the GL10's body yesterday and had the side/undercarriage bed-lined and rust-proofed. Here's hoping she'll last another 25 years! Now some pics.

The amazing $400 car in its last hours of life
The GL10. Hadn't even gotten to working on it and some jerk shot out my window...
Out with the old...
In with the new(ish)...
The man himself, Nubchux, working his magic with the digi-dash.
Power trial... didn't realize how deep the ruts were... heh. Sorry oil pan!
And this is how she sits right now. Bed-lined, winter wheels, ready for the imminent snow!
