www.row52.com to locate a Donor car in a Participating Yard (most are pick a parts) You will not be able to call them and narrow it down, for a specific part. One would have to GO to said yard, and physically be there to LOOK. Most self serve yard business model revolves around scrap, and processing cars through in as little time as possible. Often 3 to 6 months, then the entire row is pulled, and scrapped. www.car-part.com to locate item via more traditional type of yard, where individual parts are often removed and inventoried. Many of these type of outfits also have EBAY store presences.

What Gen is my 1981 BRAT
newmexguy replied to stephen115's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
1981 was the first year for the "standardized" 17 digit VIN. Have no idea if it applied to ALL foreign cars at that time. -
What Gen is my 1981 BRAT
newmexguy replied to stephen115's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Wonder why they never built a Brat off the '85-'94 Box generations. Probably wouldn't have as been as collectible, though. -
I've heard the VT title thing or "loophole" has closed. Not an expert, however. Others have said Alabama has a "looser" process. If you had been closer, would have given you a killer deal on the '89 DL wagon carcass I finally liquidated. It had a title. Still have near complete new gasket set, plus more new for the EA 82 engines, will make a package deal if interested. Dave S.

A southern NM example would not have had any rust on the lower door seams, or rockers. But theyre all gone now. The three that were in the Ruidoso area, a while back, as a PACKAGE deal, probably were similar to this one. In terms of body condition. But was too far from the buyers, to risk it.

Guessing that one was rolled. Moss in front seat Likely weather there, is more like northern Japan, or the pacific northwest. No moss grows here in the desert! Doubt you'd find any in the outback either.

1987 Subaru GL 4x4 steering rack suggestions
newmexguy replied to kanurys's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
These cars are not "nose heavy". Is power steering really needed? -
Tranny swap check before I purchase a DR 5-speed
newmexguy replied to azdave's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Nuts. NO way to run a side gig. I've never made enough selling parts to make it a primary gig, but I sure wouldn't stiff or ignore a customer like that. Simply would keep the communication lines open, and let them know it will take some time, due to primary Job committments. -

Many are living for that next "thirty Pack" as well. Although Bud Light might be a little less popular right now. Darn if someone was offering a G for a pile, sitting near the Crusher, I would have chiseled off, and kept the VIN plates if there was no title. -
1987 Subaru GL 4x4 steering rack suggestions
newmexguy replied to kanurys's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I still have those manual racks, figured they were worth more, than power ones when these cars were in the yards a decade or more ago. -
My hub had its splines stripped?
newmexguy replied to Hamm3y's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Have a pair of hubs, with turned rotors, along with cone washers and castle nuts. If you are still in need. This is EA-82 stuff. Dave S southern New Mexico (clean parts). -
I have a Replacement Copper / Brass radiator. Near new, but some cosmetic defects. $40. PM if interested.

Looked at my three shaft assemblies - that have that carrier bushing. 1. one front unit is "shorter" with good bushing and bad front U joint (guessing five speed?) 2. next front unit is "longer" with good bushing and good front U joint (Auto?) 3. Third Unit is complete assembly, long front shaft, has good U joints (has Subaru Sticker, may be replacement assembly) I did buy it from a Yard, perhaps a Decade ago, as a complete driveshaft assembly Had these loose, for so long, forgot which is Auto and which is Five Speed

Since you already sprung for the $$ rebuild kit for the Original, I'd find a Carb Guy to fix what you have. Keeping it all original. I do know one here in Las Cruces, he was employed by the now defunct Pony Carbs for a spell. Frankly I'd look for one that has a Japanese focus, or sideline, there has to be more than one out there. The southeast is not a hotbed for these cars, and if you desire to part it out, you'll sell one critical part, and since then the vehicle is disabled, there's no way to sell the rest. For above Scrap value - say $150 when brought across the Scale. Shipping and Logistics kill me in southern NM, as pretty much everything I sell in my main focus of 64-81 GM classic has to be shipped out of here. Would suspect you'll have the same problems, with Subaru parts, in the Southeast. The areas of interest for the older Subaru tend to be the Pacific NW, the Northeast, and Colorado/Wyoming. In a very general sense. There are always exceptions.

I have a parts EA-82 on a stand right now. Clean desert metal. If you need any hard parts let me know. Also have new timing belts, gaskets, hoses, thermostat, etc. All new. Package deal if you buy it all.

Have a older replacement copper/brass job, near new, a few cosmetic blems. Available. Would imagine anything available now is aluminum with plastic tanks.

Fuel level sender unit 92 loyale
newmexguy replied to Issac's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
Ok - that seems to indicate that the "carryover" Loyales used the earlier tank. -
Just bought a 1987 GL wagon

www.subaruparts.com - shows some pre '95 parts still available. -
Where do I find a Gass tank for a 1992 subaru loyale

Fuel level sender unit 92 loyale
newmexguy replied to Issac's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
I have a flushed / cleaned tank from an '89 wagon. sender/float is clean. Research seems to be that it fits '87 to '89 only. Any reason why this same setup wasn't used in the "carry-over" '90 - '94 Loyale Wagon models? -
Wanted exterior fuse box !!!

Yours gone, or trashed? I've got an '89 wagon, I'd be willing to sell Drivers seat, but doubt it matches your fabrics. Dave S
