Wow!!!!!! Got a total cost on that project?? If you prefer not to share that info,I'll understand,but man am I curious. I thought you needed a door panel? I've got one set aside for you.

Todd's right.Usually on the parking/emergency brake cover.I'll check mine next chance I get. Glove box might work better. Those labels seem to have been made in the early 70's. It shows instructions for drum and disk brakes. '75 was the last year for drums up front as far as I remember.

Yup,that's right.Drum brakes on '72-75 non ff-1's,except the Coupe which got disk brakes from '72 onward. The ff-1's brakes are near the tranny.

Works for me.I'm there. Let me know what to bring.

Thanks Bryan!! You left your phone at the mail place...they called me...go get that phone.

Wow,that's the mother load.Well,I'm up late tonight....er,this morning,after going through just one box of goodies from this haul.There's a good amount of ff-1 items but I put them aside for Charlie,who owns a '71 wagon that came with an 1100 but he's replaced with a 1300.There's a set of front bumper gaurds that are probably the sweetest of the items I went through. Long process,but certainly engaging.Every part I look up is its own little hunt.I now have the USA versions of all factory parts manuals from the 1968 "360" through 1979 laid out on the table. Whatever there is for leftovers we'll gladly let go of at very fair rates. Those remaining boxes will surely have more ff-1 parts than Charlie can use.And there's some exhaust too. Keep your eyes open for me would you? My '73 1400 GL Coupe can use some help here and there.

Change the date. Or get a threesome together this weekend and the rest of us will join you for the next round.

Oh....I forgot and thought Marcus Dairy was this weekend....so I might make that event then. Let me know what you want to do on the fivespeed GLF.....I'm willing to help and there's LOTS to do down that way,as mentioned in the other post.I'll be tough on the housework I'm trying to get done but if I push real hard this coming week I'll be in the clear. Talk to you soon.

Next weekend?? Connie,I just saw Lucky.Looks pretty good.The shop owner had a poor opinion of the rest of the sturcture,etc.. So I think it's eBay time.:-\ Do it soon and pretty much count on seeing Lucky one last time. I just need to wrap up Harrisburg and get that PA wagon this weekend. After that things look pretty flexible. I just want one good blast this year,like OBX for a long weekend.Otherwise we'll be local on weekends all summer.

No sweat,thanks for contributing. I'm going to keep a few but I'll let you know if there's any to spill off. Update coming...soon.That'll spell out exactly how many are spoken for and how many remainders.

All depends on if I go to Harrisburg and pick up a car in PA that I got a month ago...... If I make it I'll bring the GLF as long as I get it back in time.It's in the bodyshop now.

Thanks Bryan.You're welcome to call me from there if that's you'd like to.

Wow,that's got to be the last hold of ff-1's on the planet other than the few scattered about. The ff-1 wagon that sits in a barn pictured here in the last couple of months is still there.I talked to the owner and I'm trying to figure a way of getting it from their baqrn in the middle of nowhere to the shipping terminal cheaply. The other ones pictured recently are either just old pictures or the one from the Tacoma WA area.That owner seems to have either sold that sedan,or decided to keep it.He hasn't spoken up here or replied to phone calls. Your brother is now the King of ff-1's on planet Earth. I can see where the original Subaru dealers got stuck with much ff-1 parts....I'm buying a lot of it right now. Did you folks have the 1000cc for very long? The 1000,1100,and 1300's are all considered reliable by our experience here.We just don't have any 1000's now and 1100's are almost as hard to find now too.There's a handfull of 1300's still around,but I'd say less than a dozen running in cars.

If anyone goes there I'm seriously interested in the dangling front bumper if it's straight and not beaten.I don't care about the "stays" or brackets as some would call them.I just want the long bumper with nice ends.If it needs rechrome I'm cool with that. I'm also wanting that front passenger side seat-backrest if it's not torn. Items of interest: door panels - only if worth cleaning shifter boot - same as above shifter rod and any linkage small badge located right below the cigarette lighter-take the whole vent if needed. - only if decent,don't need it if poor quality steering column plastic cover with "illumination lamp" that sits on topside steering wheel (I do not need the ignition,combo switch,or column as a whole,just parts listed-thanks) gear shift stay boot - located going into the tranny under car axles Let me know if you're willing to help. Thanks

Elad,yes I still have the grill in a box....and it'll get to you,I swear. Meanwhile,would you like to get in on the windshield gasket group buy? That way I can ship both to you.You're going to need one sooner or later.Leaky windshields cause rusty floors. Let me know.Check the thread and email me if you want to get in on the deal. Take care, Paul

Got the dough,thanks. I'll make an update of the speadsheet later this week and attempt to post it...or email it to each of you.

So seriously folks....there's some ff-1 parts that'll be hitting the market NEW in original boxes,etc....so shake the tree if you think you've seen one around,etc. Have any owner of ff-1's contact me. There'll be '72-77 parts too for the A-22 and A-23 series cars you all know and love. Thanks

You kids made 4 pages of consideration..... somebody go. Or just meet up with me/us at Pine Barrens Rt. 206 in Atsion,NJ.....look for a date in the semi near future. I'd still be up for the offroad park near Hazelton,but could use a better weekend too.How about shoot for a better date for Hazelton,and if you guys can join in at the Pine Barrens then that's just an added pleasure. With some more time I should have a better beater for the trails,or put some effort into the "family truck" -GL Touring wagon.This weekend I'd have to either go soft,or not go at all on the trails.We need the car for cargo hauling from Harrisburg to CT.:-\

Wow,I'll have to scream at FedEx over this one....those pricks. No sweat,thanks very much,and if you owe me you can bet I'll bring it up. Thanks Canada!

That's right,it was a later bumper makeshift fitted to the rear. Well,I'm still wanting one.Might end up with Brian's from MT,but it's still seems a long way off. There's less than half a dozen of these known to be in driving or semi-driving condition.Andrew-1,Charlie-1,Brian-2,the one from the "museum"-1 and now this one....not a runner. Score this wagon if you have space to tuck it away.

(edit) Scratch that....... Looked good at first,but it'd have to be free. That's still a good base for someone more local.Custom interior,have some fun and make the seats actually comfortable....some paint,tune up that little powerhorse 1300 and save $$$$$$. I've got parts to keep it going,but nothing to make it look much better.

http://tucson.craigslist.org/rvs/179847125.html too much peyote...no,not me. Yup,upon closer inspection it's a waste of a good body from the 70's.

Isn't that an 80-84 wagon up there? I looked kind of quick.Very cute....I guess if I lived in the desert I'd be driven to such activity.

People are also making a form around the metal parts and pouring in urethane.

We should be in PA next weekend. Need to hit Harrisburg......one.....last.....time..... .....so I'll see what I can do.I sure can't go wheeling with a load of parts.Especially since what's left is 99% sheetmetal and exhaust.Doh! If we wheel with you guys on Saturday I'll be camping somewhere or need a place to crash,between Hazelton and Harrisburg on Saturday night. Day to day,we'll see as the week goes on.
