SUBARU3 Posted August 28, 2004 Share Posted August 28, 2004 Just doing a simple survey. How many of you have, or know of in still in existence, (not in a salvage yard), any Gen 1/ stage 1 or 2, AUTOMATIC transmission car? (Any body style). Obviously they would all be 2WD, as the 4WDs were all 4 speeds. Just trying to get a feel of the rarity of these cars. Thanks all!

GeneralDisorder Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 Still have that '78 - FINALLY got the stupid engine out of it like a week ago. Tranny is still up for grabs if you want/need it. I'm going to pull it and keep it around just in case anyone ever needs it.... GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUBARU3 Posted August 29, 2004 Author Share Posted August 29, 2004 Hmm...seems like yellow was the color for many of the automatics! (Including mine) I know they were not the best sellers back when they all were new. So I would imagine there are only a handful still on the road.

75skunkaroo Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 there is a grey 4 door sedan with an auto and a golf ball sized hole in the block, here at the pap. uh, '78 i think -mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBARU3 Posted August 30, 2004 Author Share Posted August 30, 2004 What is with these holes in the blocks! My 78 had a thrown rod. I have seen a few others with that golf ball size hole right behind the distrib. Guess that's the weakness with high mileage, age and no oil!
