Subaru Brat about to be lost, unless safe harbor is found.

You figure something out yet?

 

(Late reply of course)

 

Yeah, I found a place to hide in out in the middle of nowhere, have had to live out there in the wilderness for more than one reason anyway.

Determined to save my Brat so it can save my practical life.

Still stuck out in the middel of nowhere, but just barely got it running, had to rely on very difficult jump starts for various reasons, including the system not charging the battery for some reason.
Was able to stop the water pouring in to the carb, got the system charging again.
While is was out there, someone tried to steal it, got into it without breaking a window somehow (almost thankfully) and completely tore up the ignition switc unit on the steering collumn, steering lock, whole thing messed up.

If anyone can spare a whole ignition unit, steeering wheel lock, key(s) and all that bolts onto the steering collumn, that will bolt on to a 1983 Subaru Brat, I would realy appreciate it.
I can pay for it, but I am in what amounts to an emergency survival situation, with little or no money at least for now. As long as I can get and keep this thing running, now that I can get into civilization on my own, I can hopefully get work soon and be able to buy everything else it needs and get life going again.

Thank you in advance

I am East of San Bernardino, East of Redlands, East of Mentone, off Hwy 38.

Last night coming back from town I hit a hard to see rock in the road and totally tore apart the right front wheel assembly - Swing arm tweaked, axel pulled apart, ball joint separated.
This may be ther end. I cannot fix this, not out here, not sure how I would even find a swing arm.
