Ain't never seen so few people make so much babble ..... But anyhow,I'll be there to annoy you all for at least a few hours on Saturday. Not too concerned about food this year but I'll try to bring something cool to share. Sorry for disappearing for a couple of weeks - it was a BLAST !!! Our computer should be back later tonight or tomorrow - or real soon. Then you'll have to deal with me daily again. Looking like a Friday 3PM departure from here (Connecticut shoreline) going to the Pine Barrens area. Romp around , maybe collect some frogs or something with my son , then gravitate towards Carlisle by the evening. You guys probably won't see us Friday night but we'll be there already come the morning. Waffle House would be cool but not necessary. Shake hands , say hi ,take some pictures and then we'll be heading home around noon - 1PM - sorry :-\ See you soon!

Another tough year , eh? Never made it to the dealer. No flyers .... Club Registration must be getting near closing. Trying for my '79 brat to be on the road and making the trip with my son , so far. Subject to change.

Close as in about an hours drive. Connie understands - I have 2 kids and lots going on. She has help and don't forget she's rebuilt dirt bike engines and whatnot so she'll be fine. Luckily for her she has a fairy that magically appears to help her. Neo also understands You guys are doing a great job - more than I can do. Believe me I do want to go stick my nose in err uhhh I mean help out...

yeah I left a message on her phone too .... Connie we're in suspense here .... give us some news,please. Good news we hope. Spare the sledge.

Found some NOS ff-1 stuff yesterday. I know you've bought some items already but I have new corner light lenses and at least one new rear turn signal/brake light comp. assy.. A few other little items that I didn't take note of too. You still want that grill , right? As the weather lightens upon us I'll be getting stuff out to people. So far you're the only one with a sedan ff-1 (that has contact) so I'll set aside whatever I can for you. Don't forget that we have 2 ff-1 wagons here and a third 1973 wagon also so I can't let all the goodies go. Looking good. I like that black and white pic ... j/k

FYI the SOA auto trannies were first mated to the 1400. The 1st tranny was disasterous. They quickly changed to another Mfg. and then had a more reliable base to create the 2nd and yet a 3rd automatic tranny for Subaru in 1974-5 model years. Once had that 32k 1976 DL Automatic that now sits retored in Sweden. It was so old lady fresh it put you a little more into your seat when you punched the pedal and also had no problem doing 65+++ mph. I'm actually looking for a good vintage automatic worth restoring or a drivetrain etc. to transplant into my '74.

Make use of that FPM too. Should have exploded views that'll assist you. Good luck with it.

What's all this mean to a guy who just wants to use it? I don't think the seller is selling it as pristine and/or restored. What's the price?? Also,you forgot to notate the obviously custom exhaust and rust on the wheels. It's not a resto or an aging original but its FUN. Congrat on the find.

Oh and one more thing .... where Todd on this thread??? It's his wagon down there in Useless TX and if you get him to go out west I'll go then if at all posible 'cause I gotta meet Mr.T for sure.

yuk yuk yuk ..... I know your breakin stones and I can appreciate that but for sure we'll get out there before then. Don't count on me making on of those "WC" events but hey you get me as I can make it.... Infact I might just sneak out there to meet a select few , grab a keeper , and drive back thru E.Wa , ID , MT and then everything else eastward doesn't matter right? Oh, maybe hit OR just a bit while I'm out there.

Why not? We bring all sorts of cars. Lifts are nice but not needed for fun.

We're into April now so the deadline for club registration to our benefit is coming up VERY VERY SOON.

Yabba dabba doooooooooo No work Friday !!!! see ya

Sounds great ! Hope you can make Carlisle PA for the Import Kit/Replicar Show with our small but enthusiastic group of vintage Subaru owners. May 15-17 If you can sign up under the Ultimate Subaru name in the draw down menu when you register it'll help us get a free tent http://www.carsatcarlisle.com/ce/events/import/ Probably about the same distance for you as it is for us up here. You can pretty much count on my taking a trip down I-81 sometime in the next couple of years. Without question I want to take the family to the western hills , see Danny W a.k.a. "drivesubies" from this board who lives in TN. He's got some serious Subaru restorations going on and is hardcore about them. Gotta run , sleep later , see you guys tomorrow ...

Hey Nollie, I sent a private message to you. Sure do have much of what you need. Love those mountains out there!!!! Are you near Boone? We just had our '79 4WD wagon hit and now have passed it along to a fellow in MD. Still have a '79 Brat and '78 4WD wagon to play with for now. Good to see one more East Coast Vintage owner ! Talk to you soon, Paul

Thanks but I'll be a while getting over to your place. I'm at least a couple thousand miles away. :-\ Consider shipping cut sections?

Welcome back. Curious to know your view of the new "World Leader" installed here. But not on the board. You're not the guy that was a stickler on spelling, right? just bustin em .. my keyboard is sticky from the kids htat's my excuse. Nice to know you're not just lurking anymore. Enjoy the ride. ..and seriously its good to have you back.

Would stink to register our cars and still have to chip in for a tent....but I'll do it. Yes,bummer year all around. Ain't gettin no better anytime soon up here. More peeps out of work. Crimes in the paper lately show more folk getting deperate. The usual baby formula busts ,smashed windows with minimal goods taken ,etc. America the Limping Dog Crossing the Busy Street. 39 days ?? Yikes ! But this happens every year. We up here in the right corner get the extended winter weather that they try to sell us as spring. Not enough time for prep for the event if you have kids or are typically busy with work. :-\

Thanks Jerry but I have to pass again this year. Wife changed jobs , too little vacation time for her. I know I should just take my son and go out there but probably not untill I've got enough cash set aside to do some shopping when I'm out there. Maybe 2010

:clap: Oustanding ! Lovely young one too. But , dang you for releasing the bug on me ..... There's typical 360s and then there's your Cali btchin 360's. Fine work. I'll be sure to buddy up with you when the bug gets ahold of me. Thanks very much for the video.

I'm in on that if Galen passes. Let me know what's left of it for pieces,please.

And all the bad people are here on the east. That's Todd -a.k.a. Subaru3 in Useless Texas.

Hey great scenery there.... Sorry, but I think we'd all rather see the car than the road it travels over. Sure is a cutie. Would like to see more of the car. How about a little tour with all the doors and hatches open? I for one would really love that. I've avoided the 360 bug for a while but every springtime you know they all come out try to bite me. What would work here would be an electric "automatic" 360 van for my wife. I'd be a sucker for a pickup or van too.

Guys,I'm going to send pooparoo one of those sets from the 1975 "Four Wheel Drive" .... just give me a little more time. And I need to make an order for him too. So to the original poster - I have one or two of those in fair condition. I'll do my best to locate one soon. There's one on my 4WD wagon that obviously does not belong there so maybe I'll snag that one for you. PM coming ...don't move
