Subasaurus Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 i made a post on the craigslist for sale items yesterday, he claims hes the original owner so there woudn't be others that have owned it before. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/156611-1985-wagon-800/ and the link itself which two85s has already provided for us.

Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Seems like this is time to quote this post here: ... For the one who wrote such Craigslist's ad... Photos and Videos of the V8 engine there, or it didn't happen. However, I have posted photos and Videos of V8 swapped Legacies and Imprezas, But not a Loyale without body modifications; the V8 loyale was only a loyale's body mounted onto a Chevrolet frame + Drivetrain... Kind Regards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylar Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Someone has posted that exact same description about another subaru last year on craigslist. Probably a hoax. Doesn't even exist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comatosellama Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Someone has posted that exact same description about another subaru last year on craigslist. Probably a hoax. Doesn't even exist I've seen an outback on a blazer with a buick 446 (somewhere around there). Spooled front and rear. Posted the ad here a while ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Looks like a good project which is stopped for a while, isn't it? ... must be pretty fun to build and drive. I posted many Subarus with weird engine swaps, on this thread: ~► http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/50983-strange-and-weird-subaru-stuff/page-91 Kind Regards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, it's nowhere near running. Engine has been seized for like 15 years. I just bought it to keep the brat parts out of a junkyard, I figure someone's gonna need some windshieds or what not somewhere down the road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 ... I just bought it to keep the brat parts out of a junkyard ... So, did you purchased that Brat, with the V8 already in its engine bay? How much advanced is the adaptation work? Kind Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comatosellama Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 So, did you purchased that Brat, with the V8 already in its engine bay? How much advanced is the adaptation work? Kind Regards. It's very simple. Wouldn't trust it on road. It's a Jeep CJ5 with an amc 401 in it. They just placed the brat body on, welded it on the frame rails, along with bolting it on in a not so safe way. There's no conventional body mounts like a truck. I'll take some pictures later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loyale 2.7 Turbo Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Sounds Dangerous... but interesting as a Dedicated offroader. Kind Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wagonist Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I don't think the Brat counts, seeing as it's just the body mounted onto another chassis I've seen a Toyota 1JZ turbo with matching RWD trans mounted into an early Legacy wagon. Let's just say that a lot of the transmission tunnel was cut out and replaced, and it's not road registerable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
