Snowman Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 http://photos.reuters.com/pictures/slideshow.aspx?id=0&name=632176283649218750&kw=Editor's%20Choice&dat=4%20Oct%202004 Can't tell what it is, but I know it's an EA series car that got blown up. It was the car of a chief military leader of a Palestinian group. I saw that and I was like, "That's....a....subaru, HOLY CRAP!" I know, I'm pathetic.

TheSubaruJunkie Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Looks to be a 1983-1984 FWD Subaru Wagon or Sedan. -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subarubrat Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Ordinarily I would be upset when someone bombs a Subie, but the Isralies get a pass on this one. Kill em all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kill em all I heard an interesting lecture the other day that centered around the idea that we can all be linked back to about a dozen original "founders" of civilization. Be careful what you ask for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubaSkeet Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 i guessed an ea wagon as well, maybe im getting better at learning my roots... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 For some reason, im leaning more toward the Sedan. Reason being, how many Wagons are there really over there? And of the wagons 99.99% are most likely going to be 4WD (for the terrain). Since it was FWD with steelies, im thinking it was probably a cheap sedan the dudes got cheap cause it ran so well and oil is cheap there. -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWX Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 anybody else see that and think to them selfs "what a waste of parts"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobywagon Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Sadly...yes...Thats a terrible waste of parts. I wonder if they'd be willing to part it out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bajavwnsoobnut Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 yeah including those interesting marker lights on the fenders did anyone else notice that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myxalplyx Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 This was was involved in an explosion and that's the worst it looks? I mean, the rims don't even look bent and the tires still are together. The doors look at little twisted and the bumper but that's about it.

Sweet82 Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 I'm disagreeing It's not a EA Subaru. Look at the doors and notice the window frames? The early 80's Subarus in the image gallery don't have window frames? Look at the hood and notice the lack of a center ridge/bump at the center front. There are no side ridges on the hood either? http://usmb.net/gallery/album74/1981_a http://usmb.net/gallery/album77/1984_a I feel better knowing it's not a Subie My .02 Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 01 Forester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthWet Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Killing enemy terrorists isn't politics. I will disagree. All military action is the execution of politics through an application of force. Please understand that I will shed no tear for the targeted person. However, the distinction between terrorist and patriot is often which side of the issue that you live, or sometimes, merely political convenience. Every country on this planet at one time or another has been on both sides of this distinction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chef_tim Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 All the Subs I saw there (thousands of them) were 1.6 DL 2wd's including Brats. The 87ish sedans were by far the most popular, followed by Brats and wagons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the fact that those are undeniably subaru wheels, and in that case the only other possible car that it could be is a Pug 504 or 505? I also clearly saw the y-pipe and oil pan, which are distinctly subaru. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
