78 Brat help


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone, Im going to be buying a 78 brat for 500 bucks soon :) I need to know where I can get parts for it. Ive looked on google and even did some searches here and I cant seem to find anything anywhere. Can someone please tell me where I can get some fenders ( they have some rust problems, i would rather replace them but I can fix them if i have to), doors (once again I can patch them up right but I would rather replace them), and taillights. I cant seem to find them any-place. I will eventually need to replace struts, I would like an upgrade but its seeming like the only way im going to be able to upgrade is if i retro-fit something off a newer subi correct? Any info is greatly appreciated. Ive only owned American and this is my first japanese car and im at a complete loss. Thanks in advance! :)

Welcome... I beleive Ebay has some fenders on there now.. ask here too on the Parts Wanted link too. We have a few poeple here that have Gen 1 Brat parts. Any other stuff you might need?? Make a list and Ill see what I have.... Oh and remember to post a pic of your Brat please... Always love to see them. You need tailights assemblies or just lenses??

I saw thos on ebay, I just thought there may be another place I could get them. Um I need just the lenses but its been without a lens for 16 years and the plastic inside has probably become brittle so I should probably replace the whole thing. Um I need a shifter boot. I think that's pretty much it. It's in pretty good shape. What do I do for an shock and strut upgrade?

Shocks and struts seem to be hard to come by... Just keep searching and I always watch ebay... Good luck .. Do you need both driver and passenger side rear lenses??? Dont have a boot sold one already but Ill keep my eyes open for you.. Let me check on the lenses for you...

Shoot me an email with a zip on it and I can send you some pics.

 

Window cowl looks to be in really good condition, fender is meh, got some spots that are rusted through... still though if you want it I can send it your way...

 

either way email me at dakrihanson@gmail.com and we'll talk about it.
