Fronts were inboard drums on the ff-1's.

There was a G here. 1300 in an ff-1 shell. Kind of wish that ff-1 resto going on went that direction,but not to be. holy grail for sure to a few of us old schoolers drooooooool

Very nice! That would look even better with a set of sport mags and stripe kit. :cool:

Car: 1979 4WD wagon Went well. Ran into the dark but got it in. Tomorrow I'll squirt some sealant in behind the upper ears. Used a rope about 3/16 diameter. Ran the tails out at the bottom near center. Had a helper hold pressure here and there. Found out afterward that you want that helper pushing down when you go to pull the rope along the top edge. Ended up tucking the inner lip around the metal and ceiling liner 1/2 inch at a time to complete. Needed to since I'd already pulled the rope past those points. All things considered it went well. I'd say it's fairly easy for just about anyone. Water test still in the midwest...should be here in a day or so. Otherwise I'm glad for the sunshine so the gasket seats well. If it doesn't rain in a couple days I'll gardenhose test it. Have a great summer!!!!!!!!!!

July 11-12 New England Forest Rally Bethel, MEJuly 18-20 Grand Am Cup Race Barber Motorsports Birmingham, ALJuly 19-22 AVMA Annual Conference New Orleans, LAJuly 22 Seek the Peak North Conway, NH Anyone else willing to blow the dough to get there? No promises but I'd love to take my son to one of these N.E. events.

Thanks for that info!

Yup,we're looking at going to see the ivy on the walls. Not sure when,which game,etc. Son is a huge Cubs fan - and born a Yankee - so he's on that kick most baseball fans dream about where you try to get to the best old staduims before they're all gone. You guys could see us just about any weekend over the summer. Nothing is certain but we sure are leaning HARD toward first base. Please let me know if you'd like to meet up or if you know of good Cubs tickets. Thanks! Would be willing to devote a half day to yard hopping,but I know the rust zone extends out that way too. Could use some 1990 -up Legacy stuff,not much but ... for the sake of getting together and yard hopping. Could be the Cubs year !

Steve,you live near Premier Subaru,somewhat,right? Go there,get Charlie Miller the Senior Master Tech off to the side and talk to him.

Guessing that "M" on the end of the ID number means Modified ?? Good luck with it. I'll chime in if I see something someone else doesn't.

There's an upgrade metal gear for that governor too. Least expensive and least time consuming.

Sure will,but also check that the latch itself isn't starting to mangle. Might have to remove the grill and the latch to view it properly. Takes only a few minutes - grill 4 screws - latch 2 bolts and then carefully work the latch out to view it. If you have A/C be carefull of the condenser fins. Trying to replace a cable right now but with the moving I have going on I can't seem to take any time to get this done as easy as it should be.And it needs to be done so I can park the car elsewhere without worrying about someone opeing the hood and ripping off my battery,etc. When I pulled the latch out I could see the loops around the receiver were well bent up,like everyone else's I suppose. They (latches) have that reputation of tweaking out. One thing that I'm pretty sure is holding me up is the clamp that holds the cable onto the radiator support - its not there :-\ so I need to hunt one down. Without the cable being locked down at that point the entire cable will just slide with your every pull.

Chances are the latch is starting to tweak out a little. Or the cable just getting tired. Either way,you have lube and replace as options only. Good luck. I have several of these in new and good used condition. If you can wait untill June then ask me, I can hook you up. Also have latches in good used condition.

:slobber: I can't think right now. talk to you later oh my gawd :slobber:

I hit the back button the first time,then I saw you,knew it'd be tastefully put. Bad etiquette,eh? Spiffy,it's a National Import and Kit/Replicar Show. Been that way for a long time. Most of those cars blow our Subarus away. The Noble?

yup,just gimme some time to get thru May and June should be a lot better.....Just had those clips in my hand the other day,whole package of them.

Couple of things. One,I did sell on eBay,a set of blue door panels that had a VERY nice example of that sticker on it. Two,I was going to contact a board member -SubaruTex and see if his company can produce a contact sheet with all those old decals the FHI and SOA folks stick on before they hit the showroom/lot. "Caution Fan" , E-brake adjustment , "Do not let idle stick...." and the whole lot.. I think guys like you and myself would gladly pay the big ticket for the set up. You know how it is,set up is the cost,running them off is peanuts. And,only about 6 people here would actually buy a set. :-\ Meanwhile,I'll try to carry the camera and see if I can get a nice example for you.

I just had new sets in my hands yesterday. I'll be back at my storage later today or tomorrow and will try to bring a set or two home. Tiny clips,springs,shims,all that cool stuff. Send me your shipping address and notate WHAT IT IS I'm shipping ,your real name and your board name,please and I'll send a set out. Toss me the shipping and a few bucks,we'll work it out later. Just be patient,please. I'm way over my head right now with having to move storage,etc.etc....Thanks

nah,I'm calling rust on the wheels. nice score. look for some sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeet merchandise to hit the internet real soon to buff out those cars of yours.

...and then add some pics of that project. Ditching lots of EA81/Gen II Brat parts,Brad. Let me know if you need something. Not much pertaining to the rear half with me,but you never know.

Hey,save the cluster just like it is now,for my restoration.

360 club Ed Parsil founder is a member here but not so active. subaru360nut I believe is his board name.

They'd have done a much better job just showing up at one location here in CT. Pretty sure a couple board members would agree. Should be some pics of the place back in my gallery. ff-1 ,70's Stage I , 70's Stage II ,70's 4WD ,Gen I BRAT ,Hatchbacks ,EA81 wagons ,EA82's ,RX ,XT's ,Legacys -both 90's styles and several stuffed with PARTS FROM SUBARUS FROM THE 360 thru ff-1 thru the 70's and 80's. Even some New Old Stock pieces in a couple. :cool: AND Connecticut strokes the film industry these days with incentives and tax breaks. Sorry guys,close but no cigar. Like I said earlier. Gassed up just now.How about you? Hmm,mine was $3.89 for regular 87. High-test was $4.09.Pretty sure down in Greenwich and Darien it'll be $4.89 or so for 92 octane. Those are towns I make sure I won't have to stop for gas in. I need 17" wheels and all wheel drive on dry pavement 90% of the time? gimme a break.

nipper,you're about 10 years behind several of us who've tried to email,etc.....heck,we even have an SOA guy here , and not the guy who sweeps the floors either. He's very busy,and his dad is ailing last I heard so he's not on here much at all. He knows the deal too. He even owns a Gen I BRAT.....so why don't the other people at Cherry Hill or wherever the heck it is now take notice?? You got lucky and had someone who replied without a form letter,apparently. eMail schmeemail,they don't give a rats arse about us or going backwards with horsepower and housewife magnets like AWD or 17" wheels they DON'T NEED. Not laughing at you but ...... :lol: we've been down this road before.

Wood steering wheel or wood shift knob if it has them. Probably can add some more little bits 'n pieces. Like the rubber retainers for the seatbelts on the mid-pillars. Got a camera to take with you?

Bad timing. Charlie has or had several of those,old,removed from cars,but still good enough to use if no other existed. I'll see if he managed to save any,I'm sure he tucked them away somewhere. If he has one not worth using we'll cut that one for a cross section to match up new stock to.
