  1. Going up later tonight after 9:30.I'll probably just move the car into position and maybe get a few things going.Sunday morning I'll be busting butt on it.Might not lift the engine untill Sunday night,we'll see.Hoping to get a sucker,I mean helper and get it over with early.I need the car gone by Monday AM. Free carcass,really not too bad.I'll donate the radiator support you'll need.THis could be a fun car with a little money and time.
  2. OK I'm going for the trifecta.Faust is a must stop because of the 70's stuff.Then EZ sounds like a good place to spend an hour or so.Then hit Harry's 'till 4PM when they drive us out with sticks.Then hit a cheesy bar in Hazelton,try not to get in a fight,and split after some grub 'n brew. Who's down? Steve,I'm working on it.Does that car have heat???I could give a rats rump roast about the rest as long as it runs fair to good.I'm tossing some items on eBay as soon as I get my picture program working right.Should be able to cover it.
  3. Dag nabbit!!!! I just got called in to WORK AAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHH,a perfectly gorgeous but chilly day shot to hell. Hope to see you guys soon.Alright!!!,another CT guy.. The Congregation grows!! I'll be up there late tonight,possibly doing an all-nighter with MUCH coffee and a little additive.Holy water,yeah,that's it,Holy water in the coffee straight from places like the springs of St.Bailey's or the falls of Frangelico,etc. cheers! I'll be there tomorrow if I go home tonight at a reasonable hour.Sunday service-from around 9AM to noon Call ahead Subadooba I'm sending you my cell phone number through the PM here on the board.
  4. I'm hoping on getting out to Harry's in Hazelton and Faust in Allentown in the next couple of weeks.Anyone want to join up? Start in A-town about 9AM at Faust,head to Harry's in H-ton with at least a couple hours of gathering time this time around.Harry's closes at 4PM on Saturday. Any other yards worth going to in those areas?Time is tight so no hour+ drives please.
  5. Desperately seeking pod carrying beings. For the next several weekends I'll be attempting to make my place look presentable and organized. Any,and I mean ANY help will be greatly appreciated. A group meet would be nice but it's a very short notice.If anyone wants to gather a few members that'd be great.At this point I just need a good helper or two for the next few weekends. If all goes well I'll throw a killer Holiday Party. :bday: .....like that!! :santa: Cheers!
  6. Hey there,any help will be greatly appreciated.Take home some parts free,maybe have a beer or something too. I really don't expect anyone to make it but I'll take a shot.Sorry for the short notice.It's been a busy week for me. Parting out an '83 D/R wagon.Could use a good buddy with a strong back for the engine.I'll be taking the easy route by cutting the rad support entirely away.It's already cut in the center.Car had a front end colision. 230 Woodmont Rd. in Milford,CT Exit 40 off I-95 only seconds from the highway.Always good fun and exercise too! I'll make coffee or buy beer,or both.Lots of food near me. Andrew,Chris,and other CT members,if you guys can help for even just a few minutes call me on the cell phone and let me know.I'll likely have the engine ready for lifting by the afternoon.I'll use the rolling jack method so there won't be any real serious lifting required.With the rad support gone it'll be sweet,trust me,been there done that.I'll score lunch at Duchess for the guy who lifts with me. *MAJOR* shop cleaning to start immediately after so be there for the FREE pickins.
  7. Welcome fellow New Englander. Can you answer one question for me? What the hell were they smoking when they put the World Series emblem on the ground behind home plate BEFORE they lost the last game to the Yankees????Sorry bud,I'm a Yankees fan.Good to have you here anyways.Cheers
  8. Peugeot-the French car manufacturer.The boys got to calling them Pugs.
  9. 25 for antique plates in CT. A true antique is 50 years or more old. My '78 gets the plates as soon as I can get to it.
  10. Great,I've got time to save funds for my divorce lawyer or family weekend to the great midwest. I've heard they have some good beer and pork products there.
  11. No sweat!!! Hey everybody,it was just a post to rattle the cage a little.It was partly intended for myself as well. I have no real problem with any of you and I hope you can say the same about me. Only MF'er I have a problem with is "Alcyone31" from the old board,not sure if he's here under a new name or what.He's the only one in all my years here(first board onward)who's burned me for something.Don't get me going on that subject as I'm sure tempted to risk jail time.I'll catch up to his rump roast and I'll get even.He's already on the poop list with the Subaru techs where we both go for parts and advice.
  12. Todd,email me later.I've got the FPM for '77-9 I'm just about to eat.Sorry,gotta fly.
  13. Alright!!!!!! Good to see so many confessions! LOL!!!! Repent!!!! Repent!!!! You're all welcome to come to the First Subaru Church of the Resurection and be HEALED!!!! Amen! Mudrat,no sweat,we've communicated and I completely understand.And to the new guy (syphon?),no sweat at all. Like I said,there's a ton of us who need a good kick in the pants on this issue.We all bathe in the same mud.Cheers!!! As for me,I'm planning on a big pot of coffee and an all nighter to blast this stuff out. Witte has been a complete saint-over 1 full year waiting for his 5lug stuff.Don't feel bad John. Cheers
  14. My money is with Russ.It sounds like the little hose from under the intake to the T-stat housing.My opinion:change the intake manifold gaskets,turbo feed and return hoses and turbo gaskets and live comfortably for a while.Don't forget the hose with the foil wrap too. If money is way tight then at least the intake gaskets and the little hose at the same time.
  15. And sometimes it's just a matter of putting your foot into the pedal and getting that oil to pump up that lifter. Moshe did just that when I changed his oil pump and after a minute of high revs or less,it went so quiet we damn near started jumping up and down.Nothing like doing the right thing and still worrying you screwed up somehow.That oil need to pump that lifter up.Good luck.I hope it's that simple.Otherwise I'm with the O ring theory and excess sealant theory.
  16. looking like no road trip Andrew....:boohoo: Mick reports vehicle as too rotted.I'd still like to sawzall the rear for the hatch/drop gate.Mick says the gate is rotted though.Looked good enough in the picture for refurb but pics don't always show all the detail.
  17. no sweat Andrew.I'm laughing because I can see where lots of folks are going to think they're on my poop list or someone else's. but that's never the case unless you disapear and owe me some dough. No worries mates.Just setting the recoed straight.I think it kind of gives a bunch of us a little kick in the pants.I'm one that needed it too to some degree.New Year's Resolution:I'm not overloading myself with Subaru stuff to ship. Andrew-mom's silver 3door before the snow flies?? I'll give it my best shot.Still need that tranny OR I'm making it a D/R 5spd like it ought to be!!! .....and I think it was 57months but who's counting?j/k no sweat,all's well and the '75 returns to my possesion some day,it's in the cards.
  18. Good luck!!!! Sorry,I can't say much more.I've made lots of calls for my '78.The east coast is a lost cause except for some holdout stock here and there.When you find any please pass along any info for the few 70's owners and we'll do the same. Might want to get the woody look from a department store.Cabinet liner material and such.Make sure its not a paper finish on the outside.
  19. Been sitting for years?Offer to take it for free after the "I see it's been sitting here forever it seems"line.If they say no then ask what it would take and let them know that you can't get parts for it and that it'd be a novelty project for you. As for the $2500 one,that better have something serious under the hood for that price.I did sell my '77 sedan to a guy in Sweden for $2003.It had 37k and a museum quality interior. Go in LOW,as in "I'm doing you a favor".....but I also know that they pay more for scrap out your way so you may have to compete against what a yard will pay them. Good luck
  20. Northguy,no sweat,no offense taken.Your post did trigger me though.Got me to thinking how slow I am and that I kind of suck at getting things done quickly so that's why I started off like I did. I also agree with the scamsters these days.We all need to watch out.As soon as the economy goes south the dirtbags get to scamming. Bottom line on my end-family first,Subaru stuff a little behind them.And sometimes it seems like I'm never going to get things going then all of a sudden I pull an all nighter and blast through it all. My other bitch was about people going to third base and not scoring the run....I'm sure some folks just forget or realize they can't cover the price,etc. A little communication is all I ask if you can't or won't complete a deal. Onward!!!!!!
  21. Hey guys,it's been mentioned in several posts lately and I just want to say a few words. #1-on my end,if I need to be reminded of something then DO IT.I always tell EVERYONE that when we begin a deal of any type.I can't keep track of everything here and stay on top of it all by just one email or seeing one post reply here.So,if someone feels I dropped the ball simply email me and we'll talk it over like ADULTS. #2-there's been a few people lately who actually emailed and said they were sending money and going to complete deals who HAVEN'T.....if you wish to back out that's fine,just say so.If you just want my home address to add me to some junk mail B/S then go scratch your backside and don't EVER bother me again. No need to reply,no need to apologize.If you feel this is directed at you,I apologize.This is a general message pertaining to all who want to make deals with me. Keep after me through email and I'll get your stuff going as long as you've paid for it.Sometimes even if you haven't. And on that note I sincerely apologize to those who have paid me and have not recieved their goods.I'm trying and will make a true effort this coming month to settle up. Namely: Witte-the 5 lug conv. stuff Syrinx-rear slider Todd-70's auto tranny(not paid but that's not necesary so sleep well)...anyone else please email me,but I think that's it. Believe me I feel terrible every time I think of this stuff.I truely appreciate your patience and understanding and you have to know I don't intend on burning anyone.
