have you done a head count how many still survive through out the states, i know of 9 physically in australia and heard of a 10th one somewhere.

I just got wind of an FF1 2 door coming up for auction in japan this saturday, have a look here http://cc.msnscache.com/cache.aspx?q=4857413242926〈=en-AU&mkt=en-AU&FORM=CVRE2 hope this might help anyone Cheers Thierry

They have both arrived, very authentic looking, now i have to wait to see if the make the FF1 1100 version and then the G series

The 1600 has a bigger flywheel so the bigger bell housing

if you have the ea71 and box donor car use everything from it like cross members and linkages and you wont have any problems, but the 5 speed from a ea71 wont bolt straight up to a ea63, different bell housing

similar rounded look about the front ,but nothing looks as good as an FF1, am i biased, sure am

nah don't have a pic just do a ebay search worldwide for subaru 1000 and you will see, last look on ebay saw one in the states for sale and one from france with box ,norev from france makes them,

has anyone keeping an eye out for the FF1 model cars appearing on ebay, i've manage to score 2 for my self, ended up costing me about $30 aus each delivered, if looking on ebay type in subaru 1000 and have a look around the world

if you are happy with the final product then it is never to expensive

caught up with one here in aus fellow imported it just recently from japan, it was as new condition

I had a 1400 gsr down under and i topped it out at 115mph with the standard 4 speed mind you i was pulling about 7500rpm. as for a transmission a 5 speed 2wd is what you need, my current gen 2 brumby has the 5 speed 2wd box and it pull 2400rpm at 63mph, 100kph down here

as for the mirror early jap cars used them and that style more of your sporty ones, for the blinker, sorry that is it, best you can get is something close and adapting it

What information do you want, i,ve got the factory workshop manuals sitting here at my feet

oh i forgot to mention a freind of mine has 4 ff1's in his yard to including a low milage 1100 sports model and another guy i know has a low milage sedan in south australia he is going to restore when he gets back from the uk and that is all i know that exists down under

here in aus my dad worked for the imp[orter of the FF1 back in 1969 and he had lots of parts he had to bring in to satisfy what he was selling, many years ago i tracked down the son of the importer to see what he had and he still had most of the parts he brought in( the cars rarly brokedown) i offered a some for all the parts he had at the time but knocked back my offer, one day if i get the chance i might retrace my steps and see if i can still find him and the parts. unfortunately im FF1 less but my bro has the 2 i had plus 2 of his own, not including all the one's we owned over the decades. By the way those FF1 pics i posted a while back are they still around. Cheers Thierry

just to let you know there has been a price drop to $500 start price. Also i still haven't forgoten about the ff1's, hope you like those pics i put on the site of the old photo's i had around. i'm going to make a call to a guy who imports stuff from the states to here about return shipment for anyone who might be interested thierry

just saw the above for sale on our ebay site looks good shame it wasn't a gsr version. our ebay address is the same as yours but with au on the end if you didn't know

how do i post pics on here, i found some pics of racing FF1's from 1970 in singapore that i had around home i hope this works http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showgallery.php?cat=500&ppuser=15145

Bit of useless trivia about 4wd, the prototype for the 4wd was using a 1300 g ff1 wagon, picture of it going through the snow

Walter, Give me a buzz at my email carrara_m61@hotmail.com to see what you are after, also my father worked for the importer here in brisbane Australia and the last time i looked he had room full of new spares for the FF1, so if you or anyone is interested let me know and i will try to track the business down and see the parts still exist Thierry
