Noobaru Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 I just sold my VW and picked up this gem yesterday... I know nothing about Subaru's, but i wanted something new and i'm looking forward to learning..and i fell in love with this '82 just during the 12 mile drive home.. The guy I got it from only had it 3 weeks and knew nothing about it, so in turn i know nothing about it either except that its an '82 GLF Coupe. How much trouble am i about to have trying to find a fender for it? the pass. side one is dented beyond repair.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ihscout54 Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Welcome, and nice car. I dont know how rare the EA81 cars are around there. But here they are pretty rare. Ide hold out for a J-Yard fender, but sometimes that can be a long wait. Check this one out. Thats not a bad price if you cant wait. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FENDER-subaru-BRAT-82-primed-truck-1982-part-RH-RIGHT_W0QQitemZ370199461249QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item56319b7d81&_trksid=p4506.m20.l1116 The junkyard will be cheaper and you might find one in white, but its worth a look. Also check the classifieds section on this forum. You never know who might be down the street with a $10 fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ever Victorious Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Man I love EA81 coupes, my grandpa used to have a GLF back in the day. More pics! J-yard would probably be the best place for a fender. They're more common in some places than others, for instance it's not TOO had to find one out in my neck of the woods. Places where cars rust out faster it will be harder to find.
