Looks like one I repaired. That one suffered a front end collision. Someone had straightened the hood but didn't replace the hood hinges. I had to massage the mounting area with a hammer too.

Only six? Jeez I can't even count how many I've seen. Maybe a couple dozen by now. There was at least two just at the WCSS this year.

That blue wagon looks just like mine, minus the touring package and the wagon wheels.

Has a messed up hood, white grill, tinted windows. The paint isn't nearly as nice as that one, though.

I wish mine had the raised roof, would be great for a camping wagon :grin:

That blue wagon looks pretty nice. I'm not too wild about the raised roof though. My '95 Legacy GT wagon has the raised roof. Again, nice car, just not wild about the raised roof thing. Anyway, the blue wagon at the beginning of this thread looks as though the owner may have stacked washers between the hinges and the mounting bolts to raise the rear of the hood. It is supposed to help to "vent" heat and aid in its evacuation from the engine compartment. It is the "thing to do" here in Okinawa among the "tuner" community. Personally, I wouldn't waste my time, but that is my personal opinion.

Yeah, theres two or three vids with it on youtube. A mate by the name of Lesscroft posted a video of it climbing a pretty hard mud hole. But my lastest video on youtube has that footage and the footage of my Brumby doing the same without a welded diff.
