MY 84 GLF 4WD SEDAN, 320.000 km on it.
wesley willis replied to dgarzon's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
one time i had an 88 gl wagon, had six engines in it...looked a little like that one. -
my hatch got ran into, didnt look quite as bad as the flipped blue one. i flipped a grand am once and a half times from hitting a ditch sideways. car still drove fine and was surprisingly unscathed. there was about 8 pounds of dirt in the front tire though.

1984 Model year front door speakers
wesley willis replied to ShawnW's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
my 88 hatch has no door speakers, had to cut the hole in the panel. also, the only speakers stock for the car was a d-side dash speaker and a couple 5" speakers in the hatch area. those are gone, i built 6x9's into the pockets on either side of the back seat. also put a sub in the back. -
hidden gas milage question
wesley willis replied to Rick James's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
that and they wear in the middle a bit quicker. mine are more worn in the middle than on the sides, but it's nothing major. -

Hatch questions-weatherstripping + clicking
wesley willis replied to justified's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
shouldn't take you an entire weekend to do the axles, took me probably four hours the first time i did it. its a snap, unless you cant get your axle off. -
got some rusty wagon wheels for 30 bucks, all four. in the process of cleaning up and painting them but i need a wire wheel. dont know the price on aluminum wheels though. i got 4 for 80 at a jy, but they were for a grand am. not exactly a rare car. or a subaru.

wesley willis replied to 4x4moose's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...

What are my options with this stuck bolt
wesley willis replied to Joey Joe's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
the adjuster screw on one of my back brakes was stuck, i soaked it with lps 2 and some "silicone dry" stuff... cleaned up the threads with a wire brush and worked at it with a wrench, eventually it loosened. -
my first speeding ticket
wesley willis replied to omniman69's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
where i live, we have a long stretch of highway with the speed limit of 110 km/h, hardly anyone drives it. people go 130, 140, 150. my hatch has gotten up to 150, got kinda scared at that point. -
an islander? cool, there's a few of us on this board apparently. maybe it was one of your rack seals i have no clue, most seals on my car are round. well, not completely square anyways.

Fashion question...
wesley willis replied to Ever Victorious's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
id stick with the white, i like the wagon wheels. hard to find em around here though. all i can find are dirty rusty regular wheels with plants growing in them. the junkyard was crushing their subie rims because nobody bought any in years, except me of course. -
Check out this 360!
wesley willis replied to Subieguy's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
that's gotta be one of the coolest things ive ever seen. sixteen grand is a bit pricey though, but still, one mile since new.
