what parts fit?


Recommended Posts

hi there,

 

I am new here,

 

looking to restore an 84 brat gl, that i picked up.  never had a subaru before, have always wanted a brat.  im going to be needing a few parts to bring it back to its glory. so here is my questions.

 

1. what other models/years of body work...fenders/doors that might fit.

 

2. dash parts, vents and such, other models that might work or am i going to have to fix or find brat parts for it?

 

3. how hard is it to add a/c? this will be a complete restore to stock.

 

4 where in the world can i find a Factory service manuel?? I need all the help i can get, the drive train is a mystery to me. I have rebuilt other cars, but.....this is new to me.

 

thanks in advance.

ps Ill post pictures soon.

 Hi,

 fenders from any of the 82-87 that are of this series,  the little hatchback  doors and fenders will fit went through 89.. i think the door glass is brat only but maybe the hatch will fit, not sure.   in 85 they started a new series  and the body parts don't fit.

 the dash is also the same as above,  the vents are hard to find good ones,  a/c is a project but if you have all the stuff from the same series  it is all bolt on and in, best to have a doner car to pick from and it is easier to see how it all fits.  factory service manuals are around, i have a mint one i'd take 45 for ,  they are very big over an inch thick. 

 brats are very popular and increasing in value,  cool .
