Forget the “boy cries wolf” theories. I know you’ve seen me do this before and the posts are still there to prove it. This year , this time , it’s very very serious as many of you have seen me selling on eBay last autumn and a little bit since just very casually lately. I don’t have the time I thought I would. So I’d like to get folks to drive by and I’ll gladly display whatever I have to offer. The storage unit unit is under control and really much nicer and more accommodating for visitors - FINALLY - and thanks especially to Subafreak early last year and my best friend Chris late in the year which really brought me to a great point which I needed to be at for the past three years. 1970’s stuff almost entirely. Still plenty of New Old Stock and great used too. Engines , trannies , most all the stuff you imagine. PM here if you’re serious or email me at moosens at yahoo . Com Milford CT exit 35 off I-95 super super easy from either direction. Got 90-94 Legacy stuff or early 2.2 ? 90-96 ? You’re welcome to trade up just please discuss before hauling anything my way. Storage is too expensive , has to be reduced. This is it. Nice opportunity for vintage owners. Worlds best pizza near by , super breweries , CT isn’t so bad to visit just bring money and don’t stay long - too expensive!!!

Heater tap/valve wanted for '84 Brumby/Brat
moosens replied to KiwiBrumby's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
There’s a few heater valves out there , even for the previous Gen. Be patient but persistent. I have first gens. Outside chance I might be able to find a second gen in my stuff. -

Enjoy the time spent ! You did see the $46,000 Brat sell on Bring-a-Trailer , right ? And two Gen 2’s sold down at Barret Jackson in the $16-18k range. Just letting it sit there you’ve done well. Do your walk around and send me a list. I’ll do my best for you. Cheers! -
Rotary Powered BRAT?
moosens replied to nimblemotorsports's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Here in CT I have been selling off a serious amount of New Old Stock and great used vintage Subaru parts. Currently gearing up to ship a windshield. I also have at least one more. I have correct side mirrors new and old. Also lots of small items you may find that you need like brake switch , neutral switch , side markers , seals , bearings , etc. If on eBay check my sold items and the little bit I have listed now. ”cashingmystuffin” Everyone wants to be my friend and make deals on the side etc. but please be understanding that sadly I kind of need eBay lately. So if you see me there please DO NOT ask me to make deals off their site while on their site. They do have robots that search and they do warn you and threaten you with fees etc. Just contact me here or through email - moosens@yahoo. com But that’s no promise that I’ll yank an item from auction. Depends on how the item is doing and how I feel about it’s potential. Cheers! Paul -
Rotary Powered BRAT?
moosens replied to nimblemotorsports's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Easier to get the 1600 up and running. I have NOS main bearings in standard and probably first size up too. Also have lots of NOS seals , etc. You’ll see me on flea bay again soon. I’ve been slow about getting back into it. And I’m not alone , there’s still some others with old dealer stock. 78 Brat is worth keeping close to original until absolutely desperate. But of course you want to have what you believe will be more fun. -
Very hard to shift, grinding gears
moosens replied to musubk's topic in Historic Subaru Forum: 50's thru 70's
Just for kicks read this and with a flashlight go back under your dashboard for a minute. Flashlight illuminating the left side of the pedal box. Depress the clutch lever with your right hand as you watch the thin sheet metal of the pedal box at the pivot point. Look close , look on the inside and outside of the box but entirely in the left side of the box where the pivot pin sits in the box. -
Feeling a lot older , but that’s life. What can I do to help ? PM works or email at moosens@yahoo com , or right here. Good to see you around too. Cheers!

Yes , you’ll want to not bother with the air system and swap over to regular stock assemblies. Junkyard , parts car donor , whatever you can find. Maybe buy some new KYB’s to replace struts , or go cheap since I personally wasted my money on KYB’s since my son ended up killing the car and I couldn’t get my KYB’s back before the car go crushed. Be sure to get good top mounts. Not Chinese crap. Even keeping the originals are better than new Chinese’s garbage - take my word ! We swapped out our 94 Legacy wagon air for standard and all is great now. Good luck with it and the kid. Cheers!

Just found out that my parts car still has its harness. It might be a 1993 but to most of us here it’s got to be the same as the 1994. EJ22 Automatic Wagon AWD N/A Harness and engine still in car. It’s freezing here now so I know I’m not rushing up 90 miles to do this BUT if you can wait until I get a warm day and time to run up there I’ll help you out. ECU also still there. Car ran fine.

Barrett Jackson Brat Sales 2019... WOW
moosens replied to greg454's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
My son was there and sent a text with pics of one of the Brats. Looked great and also looked like it had original 14” wheels. But I’d need a real inspection to pay that kind of money. Plenty of people with too much money who will just throw money at it. -
poop! exh port gasket shot EA82T
moosens replied to jono's topic in Old Gen.: 80's GL/DL/XT/Loyales...
High 30’s C ?? Man , get at it ! LOL Sweat is good ! -
You got the better investment for sure. And yeah , Sedan was way high but still glad someone cared enough. My former two door sedan - 1976 DL Automatic 1600 now sits in a showroom in Sweden. We acquired the vehicle with I think 32k and sold it with 36k IIRC. Buyer paid $2000 or whatever year it was he actually paid that amount $2003? And the car smelled new inside still. Notorious front fender foam strip caused the typical rust/rot and that made for a hole in the drivers fender and really not much of any other rust anywhere. Just another reference for the gang.

Wow !!! You just got my first “like” I think. I don’t do much of that stuff just because I’m borderline old fart. Lol Very impressive !! I’d drool over that for an hour at a car meet. Enjoy it !
-
Wow that was 2016 ? Geez , I “need” to stick my nose in BaT more often. $7k for that ‘74 - to me it’s not that much , little steep , but I personally have a ton of parts for that one and enough knowledge and skills to keep it healthy on a good budget. I hope this brings out more old Subies.

Todd , I’ll bet you feel the same way. It’s almost like worthy of a celebration. We older (somewhat) folks who grew up with the 70’s vehicles must all be very proud. At least those of us who’ve kept the torch burning and passed along. Enjoy your rides ! Hunt those parts and stock while you can. Be aware of EA81 car crossover bits and anything else which can crossover (not a lot). EJ swaps aren’t the worst thing , keep it rolling !

Yeehaa. Pretty wild ! It’s solid , and regardless of how accurate the previous sellers have been it’s managed to set the new standard. I can pick stuff out but at this point let it all be. It exists. It not only survived but was obviously really cared for. Also had parts thrown at it that (just about) only someone from SOA in south Jersey could make happen. Great story. And I wonder about the SOA exec. who first ones it because I also had one Gen one Brat come my way thru an elder SOA exec. I’ve not had contact with him since a good decade ago. Hmmm But holy crap man , $46k and change , PLUS the BAT fee and it’s like $48k someone said. Mike the Plummer - today is your day !!! Lol

I have the gaskets you need. Just let me dig them out. I know the inlet gasket is here at home and I think I saw the outlet hanging around too.
