Subaru Star, how rare?


Recommended Posts

I was looking at the pictures of that awesome junkyard in AZ that has been making the rounds on various forums, and saw a picture of a Subaru Star (aka 1100?). I was wondering how rare these are in North America? I'm thinking I remember seeing some of these very early cars in the mid eighties out west when I was younger... I'd love to put a more modern Suby drivetrain into one! Even though I'm more in to German cars, VWs and BMWs, I'm still a big fan of Subarus, as my family had a '78 4WD wagon that we loved until it rusted into oblivion.;) How related are these to the one my family had? This image seems to suggest more than I thought...H89002t.jpg Anyway, I'd like any info about the Star/early series coupe or how to locate one (the one from the picture I saw is likely crushed by now), thanks!

Oh damn, well, I woudn't hack up a car that rare! One of you guys in the SW better get on the case of this car then! I don't quite have the resources until my house sells. Read about this remarkable junkyard on the thread from vwvortex.com! I can only assume that it contains or contained some of the last/best examples of some cars in North America, if not the world.

I don't know if they are all crushed, or what cars were moved, or what...

Dude! Did you see the Brown Gen 1 wagon with the graphics on the side in the background? Also, what was the orange car back there? Looks like a wagon.....

Awww man, I just couldn't bear to look any more. The thought of all of those great solid cars getting sent to the crusher is just too much.

You gotta wonder if any of those old wagons are the split rear gate type like Andrew has.

Also, there appeared to be an ea81 wagon in that rare blue that Sean had. What a shame.....

Not to mention all of the other cool old cars that aren't subies....
