Looking at SubaruParts dot com or the similar Subaru branded sites, they don't even show the "Loyale" as an option on their drop-down-lists. However using search engines and searching for example a Brat or Loyale part and then including "Subaru Parts" will bring up these older vehicles on their site. Did this for the Brat Tailgate... Trying to find the part number for the Counter-Sunk Phillips Cap Screw/Bolts that connect part number 10 (The support Stays) to both the Gate and the Body. They list all the other part numbers but the hardware I'm looking for... https://www.subaruparts.com/v-1984-subaru-brat--gl--1-8l-h4-gas/body--tailgate Ordered these through Subaru before back when building up my '85 Brat... Now having a hard time finding them. Have heard that someone at the Oregon Dealership has The Book with all the numbers. The nuts here at my local Subaru threw theirs away years ago. Also tried using the Search for this info... got about 5000 results... most of which had nothing to do with what I searched. Tried narrowing it down and the results went to 30,000. Narrowed it down further and went to zero results. Seems the Search prefers the latest posts and the older ones just fall into the clutter.

Ok - I'm not sure where to put this, but here is my latest effort : This is based on the WRX Imprezza 2014 ? version due to come out soon ... For those who want a more 'sportier' ute version ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Subaru XT Coupe : Found someone with a creative licence who redrew this Vortex Ute : Add : Does anybody know who drew this ? And this is my take on it : Drew up another view of it : As far as doing the 'mod' for this I think it would be relatively easy : Remove the back seats, boot & turn it into a tailgate ( Optional to make a hard cover version as shown ). Cut the roof just behind the B pillar, then slide the rear window forward until it meets the back of B pillar + cut the side windows down to fit. Knock up some inner panels for the tray, then form up some ‘tube rails’ to go round the tray edges, turning up & over with a ‘roll bar’ somewhere near the B pillar, paint it red, and lastly put a few spotties on it. Bob’s your Uncle … Also finished drawing up the rear end opening : A few notes on this : Hinge for tail gate would need to be reinforced from behind & some sort of support to stop it from dropping down too far. The bar around the edge of tray could be 2x2" square box section shaped / rolled to suit. A smaller section used as spacers / connectors to frame ( I'd leave enough room to get your fingers in gap ) Removable hard top & latches not shown for clarity ... If anyone one wants to build it, let me know& will do some more accurate sketches ... P.S. - Mr Willy has a old shell that he's going to chop up, might get to see what it looks like ... Cheers, Bantum ...

Ok, I found a few moments to consider some requests for a bigger version of the XV-Ute : This one is based on the current Legacy / Outback platform & should give you a much larger payload + a sportier look to boot ... ! Outback-Ute-1 Outback-Ute-2 Outback-Ute-3 Outback-Ute-4 Outback-Ute-5 Note : For an even larger version, click on the link @ bottom of right of picture to see the 'Originals' ... Cheers, Bantum ... P.S. - I might have to come back to this & fix up the links ...
