The top pic is a hatch,then the next one down,that's the one i see as a coupe.It's grill was never on a Brat.That grill looks very much like a pre-75 to me.

Good luck.Let me know if I can help in any way.I have almost every removeable piece from a '76 GF coupe,same color as yours,light brown/saddle color interior.

Has a bar in front,the short boxy type like you see on old Nissan/Toyota type small pickups.I'll probably have to remove that for the plow. Also has a homemade roll bar with 4 big lights on top.But here in CT having more than 4 bright lights facing forward is ilegal so a couple of lights are disconnected.Bar looks bitchin though. Charchol grey with grey interior.Has some rot-OK it's looking mighty bad in some sections-but from the outside looks plenty good enough.The guy tossed in almost a whole Brat in parts.See my post in the marketplace for the spillovers-mighty cheap. Drove it home last night and it ran great;allbeit a little loud,but hey,it's a Subaru of mature age.No third gear synchro problem at all.Nearly new radiator,ran cool.All lights work,but the horn wasn't.Maybe it needs a compressor and air horn.LOL See you in the snow!!!!!

Mr.Roadtrip,that's me.Start with the hundred bucks and see if you get outbid.At least you'll have tried and for 100$$$,,,not that hard to cover,even for poor folks like us.Maybe we can scratch up a Connie-fund.

WOW!!!!!! That grill on the 2door looks like a '72-73 or so......keep me in the loop on this stash please.Yes,I will be getting your A-bar out soon,I swear.Talk to you soon.

Go for it Connie!!!It'd give me another excuse to go to SVXperts place again.

Asking price?

Cool rooftop cafe in Cocoa Beach that looks out at Cape Kennedy.Have some fun too while you're there!!LOL....Skip RonJon's---just an overpriced tourist magnet and no more Orange juice machine!!

Wagonsolny and I toured south Jersey today.We wound our way down to SVXpert's place so Andrew could pick up his latest driving toy.....an MPFI RX couple.And,also to pick up my NEW EA71 shortblock.Man I love getting pieces like this.I'd like to worship it in my living room for a while but I don't think that'll happen.Regardless,it'll be cherished when it's all slapped together with some rebuilt (for an airplane guy)heads that I have.Once together it'll be ready for my '78 4WD Wagon restoration project. A dual carb set up will sit atop of it all,thanks to Qman!!! Stand back kids,this old doggy is going to GROWL!!!!Don't need no stinkin' exhaust restrictions up here since it's tagged with "Antique/Classic" plates.Move over Rover!!!

Wagonsonly and I are heading to see SVXpert.Anyone who wants to hook up in south Jersey contact me before 6AM...short notice,I know,sorry.For those of you with my cell.phone number you're welcome to call anytime,just don't expect me to answer from midnight tonight 'till the morning.But,leave a message and a number and we'll try to get together. Boz,and Jeff,you guys come to mind first.You're both on the way.If not,I'll probably head down one more time before the winter for some Pine Barrens action with my son.

5w30,from an American souce.

There's nothing wrong with a Honda.Never mind the blah blah blah you'll hear from people,they're great cars.It's the annoying little dweebs that drive them that suck nuts. But,I hope you find a Subaru.Good luck.

Charlie,If you can make it up here I'll hook you up with a ton of stuff for super cheap or even free.There's a good chance you might even be able to get some welding done here at the neighbor's place. As for the engine re-seal,no sweat.Lots of us have done all out own re-seals and R&R pumps,belts,etc.....If you stop up during the week before 5PM I can get you dealer parts at my discount.No way do you need to spend a grand to keep you car going for a couple more years,trust me,it's my way of life.I know you could do that real easy,but between what I have and my discount you'll be tight and dry,er uhh,your engine will be anyways.

A professor I know claims to have over 1,500,000 miles on one of his Subarus,an '83 4WD wagon.His wife came out and backed him up.Apparently he'd commute home on the weekends from places like Univeristy of Florida,and Michigan State,and other universities he's worked at. I haven't spoken to him in about 2 years,since the summer after 9/11/01 when he was greatly concerned for his wellbeing while working in Paris.He purposely took all my info incase something happened to him.Well,I guess he's ok. I told him to write Subaru of America but I don't think he was into the fanfare.He has a hatch also with over 450,000mi. and claimed to still have all original components in it. The 1.5 mil car was only on it's second engine,so he claims.He's in North Salem NY just incase his story ever gets into Subaru's Drive magazine or some other news. His brother inlaw owns a shop in Canada that has a rotiserie....for cars.His body on the wagon looked absolutley incredible,in very solid shape. Sitting next to the hatch and wagon are a Gen II BRAT and another hatch for parts.One cool old professor!...and in the garage a couple or micro cars.Very cool guy indeed.

Romeo,not romao.....but what I want to know is are you talking about a dual Weber set up from a euro-Alfa?There were several kits around here for them.I know of one artist up in the hills who has the set up NEW still in the box.He wasted his Spider and it probably still sits banged and beaten next to his barn. Much more throatier sound using the Webers over the FI that came on the Alfas.

Cost???? Availability??? Let us know please.

Breaker is my guess.Lift that cap and check.Let us know please.

I also use a big rump roast "Johnson bar" to move the tranny just enough to get the axles off when not lifting the engine/tranny.There's enough play in there without killing your mounts to flex and pry it off.But like Noah said,if you're lifting it'll pop off anyhow.I like to have them off before I lift more than a couple of inches just because they can be pushed aside sooner.Personal preference.I hate getting caught up while in the middle of all that excitement.

uhh,I didn't mean people who've paid.Just prospective customers.Sorry,and good luck. I've never taken money and not done work.Here,they like to print your name in the newspaper when you do that. My experiences with John aren't perfect either but I also know him,like me,to take a long time to close things.But I strongly feel he's not doing this to make your life miserable.

Flow,no we don't consider that rust free here either.I don't know what you paid for it but here for the rust that you mentioned the Brats go for $300-1400 depending on the condition of the rest of the vehicle. John is a great guy.But,just like me,he can be slow to respond or finish a deal.John,you are ok with me,no hurry to send those wheels.I know you're busy just like me.Send them sometime though. They'd make a nice Christmas present. :-p Talk to him on the phone.You'll get a lot out of the conversation and a better presence always makes things happen faster.You have to remember that he's up to his eyeballs in cars just like yours,for people just like you.I know his work is good and for that he's inreased his customer base severely.Being a small shop with little or no payroll I'm sure he needs to take care of the quicker jobs that are producing the higher profits.I don't blame him one bit.Having been a contractor I know that you just plain and simple have to blow some folks off sometimes.You can't spread yourself too thin,but you also need to keep the customer base stable if not growing.It's a difficult decision when you do this and it never sits well with anyone unless the contractor is a cold hearted SOB,which we all know John Bloom is NOT. John and his wife ran a memorial fund for a lost member.That alone tells me he's a decent person.Sometimes deals take some time to complete.I'm living proof. Telephone is best.

once bitten twice buy,and then buy again,and again....then you get freebies coming from all sorts of places......aaaaaaaaaaaghhhhhh!!!!!! ....and before you know it you run the First Subaru Church or the Resurection and the choir boys are up to their ears in axle grease. :-p

dagnabbit,I forgot yo call Johnny the welder today.I'll try him tomorrow.I need to call him for another reason too so I won't,er uh,shouldn't forget.

Jason,I should have those.Now I know what you meant in your email.

....you mean as hard core as Paul *used to be*....man I'm getting old and it sucks!Third item I went to pick up on Saturday made my back kick my rump roast.Finally got some new workboots on my feel Sunday night but I think it was too late.Don't buy cheap "Scetchers" boot,they suck!I'll be buying some comfy inserts very soon.Why do the good boots cost soooooo much more? Operose,didn't you have my cell phone number?I feel bad that you made that run for nothing.Email me for a better time to get together. Guys,I still need to get stuff out so I'll be doing this one more time soon. Hopefully I'll have it all organized and indoors since the weather isn't going to turn the other way and run.

Email me your address and I'll send the remnants of the goodies box.Basically you're looking at a few coasters,some WRC calender cards,driver cards,Subaru bags,and maybe a couple of stickers.I'll toss in some stuff I have laying around too. Maybe this will get me some decent 70's parts in the future when I need them..... :cool: J,I also have '75 doors (from 4WD wagon) and some other '75 items you might use.Let me know if you want any of the big items like doors,and that rear drivetrain,etc....
