PA yard run,a MUST before the snow MEET UP??


Recommended Posts

Sometime in the next month or two I plan on hitting some eastern PA yards.If you'd like to meet up,we usually have a great time hitting at least 2 yards.

 

This trip I'm mostly interested in a yard in Auburn PA and then maybe hit Harry's in Hazelton if the "pre-game report" declares it worthy,or Ringgold,or whatever you guys suggest.

 

Faust in Allentown is decent too,and there's a Harry's there too.

 

Long day,it starts early,lots of walking...bring food,water,coffee,etc...

I'll leave the Bridgeport CT area around 6AM on whatever Saturday we choose.Meet up along the way as you can,if you can or meet at the yards.Always helps having multiple hands.All for one and ONE FOR ALL.:)

 

 

...so uhh,toss out some dates!!!

.there is also a guy in reading i know who has tons of 360`s and parts, he had an ff1 but its pretty much rotted away.

 

HUH? I've lived in reading for the past... 28 years and I don't know who this is nor have I ever heard of him. Do you have more information?

 

Also, A to Z has been going down hill lately. I or my father can definitly make a scouting run. EZ in New Ringgold is also good. And the Harry's in allentown sucks. Last time I went there they had 1 subaru. One late 80s GL. I can probably make a scouting run to that one as well. The harry's in pennsburg usually has some stuff.

 

Kinda Funny, I live in reading, 15minutes away from A-Z, and work centrally to the two Harry's Satalites in A-town and Pennsburg. That means I can even do a scouting run to the Harry's in Pennsburg when the time is right. I can do those over lunch the week before you uys come down.

I'm in East Greenville (right next to Pennsburg), I can scout Harry's Pennsburg if you guys think you'll come down that far (about 1/2 hour south of Allentown). That last time I was there, there were not many Subarus and the ones that were there were Legacy and later.

Wow,this is going to be a great one.Look guys,if we stick together you know the deal,we can all chip in on one car to get someone their engine ot tranny.All for one,one for all.....

 

 

Thanks Keith and the other guy.Now to set a date.Let me see what life looks like after this weekend.Defenitely before late November...prefereably in the next few weeks....agreed?Not too soon,I'm just not ready and the money is so thin I can't even see it right now.:banghead:

 

So,maybe start saying third weekend in October?Saturday,of course,but who knows,maybe I can camp or crash somewhere and do Harry's Hazelton on Sunday.

 

I'd like to hit Natzinger's in Auburn and I guess the EZ in New Ringgold for sure on Saturday.Possibly stopping at Faust in Allentown,but the Subies are in a back corner there and there's a new freakin highway going through that is all mud right now,or was a month ago.Looked like a long slow highway project so I doubt it's any much further along.

 

Can I get a report from Natzinger's??,Dave?? And please call from there if you can.That'll help a lot.Thanks!:)

Yeah,maybe the following weekend instead.

 

THere's a lot up in the air on my end right now.I have people interested in my home but really need to button things up.

 

At least most of you guys are a lot closer.Going to be another looooooong day for me,so I might camp out Friday night or Saturday,or both since Harry's is open on Sunday.

 

 

 

......oh,I almost forgot,I'm damn broke right now too.Looking to dump some stuff off,have a couple of quicky side gigs,hopefully I can go with more than plastic and coffee money.:banghead:

if we have to wait untill the begining of Nov. so what..... I *think* snow wise we should be ok.... its not like were in Ct or anything... ;)

 

Paul, your not the only one that is squeeking right now....:banghead:

 

I thought I heard something about you losing you job,or was it your dad,and your job was up in the air??Anyhow,don't talk about it here if you don't want to.Sorry to bring it up,but YES the freakin northeast is always the first to feel it.The cornkickers don't know what's going on,but the Spanish Invasion has them waking up.Everybody wants you to work for crumbs and they take home the meat.Well,I think it's time to learn more Spanish and start a payroll.Pretty soon guys like me will be cutting throat 'cause working for tyrants blows.

 

OK,let me see about October and if it goes into November just dress warmer.

 

 

BTW,I'm predicting a MAJOR SNOW STORM this season putting NYC in peril.FEMA hires the Interpol and takes over the City like some Kurt Russell movie or something.:lol:

looks like I'm headed to Harry's in Hazelton next weekend (probably friday night then sleeping in car as it's a 6 hour drive and the sale ends saturday afternoon) for their $65 engine sale to pick up an EJ22 for the legacy...hoping maybe some of ya'll will be able to meet me or make a run down there around the same time?

New here, but seen you guys are headin to PA which is where im from. Actually I live by NY border now, but have family down near Gettysburg,PA. Thats across Rte 30 in South Central PA. If you guys are headin that way I know of 3 yards real close to each other. My grandfather has Hartlaubs Auto parts(one of the biggest in the area), second cousin has Hartlaub and Sons Auto parts. Staub Brothers is 3 minutes down the road. And I think CD Cain is right back the road from my grandfathers.

 

I dont know how many Subarus my grandfather still has back there, last time I was down he had 15-20. Hartlaub and Sons usually has 10-15. Staub Brothers is all cars, but im not sure what all they have. And CD Cain I havent been in. Theres a couple more small yards around, but not sure what all they have. Both my grandfather and Hartlaub and Sons should have Loyales and Legacy's, older im not sure about. We used to get all ur used parts from these places when I worked for my dad(grew up in the car business...lol). I have 2 cousins that work for Lawrence Subaru in Hanover,PA and they still get parts from these places so im sure the supply didnt dry up yet..lol. Just thought id mention them just in case your headin that way some time. Take care and good luck findin what you need.

Hey, Tim's nephew, works in a car paint shop in Coudersport. We visit that area often. Sooo... I just learned there's an idle Brat just over the line near Corning. We were there last weekend and didn't have time to check it out.

Glad to see someone knows this area..lol. Not much around here to peak anyones interest :D What body shop does this person work for? Street Machines, Jennigans..? Kinda makes me wonder, I used to work for Napa Auto Parts when I first moved up here. Did alot of business with the local shops, I may know him.

I went to harry's in Hazelton last wknd. there is nothing there that you would be interested in. There were about 3 EA-81's but nothing older. They were virtually untouched. Craploads of early impreza's :brow: but nothing "old skool" Of course there are ea-82's there but nothing that really jumped out at me...
