Guest Shackk Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 Ok. My wife let me. Actually, she almost made me do it. $5100.00 for a piece of history, and a great little vehicle to boot ! Turns out there's quite a story attached to the little red beast. Seems that the Brat was given to Ronald Reagan by Subaru of America. I'm working on finding out all of the details. I will most likely be transferring the little piece of history to the Ronald Reagan Ranch Museum in Santa Barbara. I'll find out all the details I can on it's past life and post it to the board. Imagine that. Ronaldus Magnus in a Suby. Just proves how wonderful a man he truly is. Shackk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BattleAXeT6 Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 More power to ya, I've been watching that one since it went up for sale. I was astonished to how much it went for. I would have bought stewart c's if I was gonna spend that much money, but then again u were buying it because of the owner, not the actual car. Awesome, Keep us informed with what u find out about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Snowman Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 I watched that one on ebay too. Too expensive for my taste, but a good find nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Turbone Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Way to go Shackk. Glad it was someone from the board, and I appreciate your donation to the Museum, thats real generous. Keep us posted on the story. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest x silvershad0w x Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Wow, this is something you don't see every day. Congratulations on a very unique purchase! That is also an incredible thing to do, donating it to the museum. This should be archived, let it be known that Ronald Regan's Brat passed through the USMB.

Guest Snowman Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 One of my jobs includes washing a 1946 Packard that was owned by Ronald Reagan. He must have owned a lot of cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
