awesome. that was on ebay a couple weeks ago. looks clean:slobber:

jump seats can be had pretty cheap, thats no biggy

i might have to bail out yet again if i buy a new car i`m looking at. anybody want a brat for the show? $2500 http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showpost.php?p=613098&postcount=12

you could peice on a new rad support with sheet metal screws, i`ve done that a few times. just make sure you overlap the older one at least a couple inches. you also could just get this one straight enough to bolt in a radiator, lights, and fender, and get the hood closed. remember, mounting holes can always be redrilled and washers can always be added to raise them. sledge hammers are always good. just depends on how nice you want the car to be.

if you don`t mind my asking, whats the new addition? 30th looks good so far for here.

how do you know $300 is a great deal if you haven`t even seen pics? to me it sounds like you are buying a job, but thats up to you.......

pics would really help, but to be honest, i think you'd be better off holding out for a nice one. sounds like its a pieced together brat, and if the x-member rusted through, it definatly has some serious issues........

yeah $4000 is practically top dollar for an unrestored brat. i paid $900 for a simular one just needing paint work, and it had some extras with it. i like the brat, but just can`t justify it for that much $$. thanks

i`m by newburgh NY, not sure if that will be of help, but i can help you with emergency parts. (i`ve got a whole parts brat, extra motors, ect.) i`ll give you pretty much anything you need for free, just happy to see your doing this in an ea81 subaru. rock on:headbang:

awesome pics guys!! good turnout. looks like it was a great time. i basically just cleaned the garage this WHOLE weekend and it rained the whole time here. you might know it'd be sunny in PA. i see some farmiliar faces from the microcar club there as well. i`m with 86bratman, see you guys next year:rolleyes: excuse me while i go murder the weather guy. oh and Paul, pm me your paypal address so i can send you some dough. hows the new 79?

settles that thanks anyway............

i seriously could come down tommorow with a tow dolly and cash if the price was right. how much are you looking to get (or whoever is selling it lol) thanks Jon

maintainence parts aren`t too hard to find, but straight, clean body panels are (and lights). also any good interior panels are worth keeping. any trim pieces or add ons (alloys, special bumpers, ect.) the motors and tranny's rarely go bad to the point of no return. please post some pics!!

its going to have a 1600cc 4 speed and yep, you can tow it on all 4's with no problems in nuetral as with any manual transmission subaru.

please let Backwoodsboy (John) know that i`m sorry that i couldn`t bring down the parts for Jess's brat.

thanks man, i was hoping to meet some new faces as well. i`m gonna be upset if it doesn`t actually rain:-\ the weather channel has ruined my plans a few times now:dead:

not looking good for me fellas, hope you all have a good time..... with the gas prices and a four hour ride with a good chance of rain, i just can`t see spending the money.

hi please have him give me a call or email with a ballpark figure on price email addy is ruppenduro@yahoo.com i`ll private message my # i can come down tommorow with cash and a tow dolly if he wants a quick sale. i`m off work this weekend. thanks Jon

might be hitting the grudge races tommorow night on maple grove raceway as well if the rain holds out. this should be an awesome weekend.

i will still be coming as long as its not pouring rain, however i will be without the brat. can`t risk loosing my insurance by switching cars again. Matt, don`t worry about coming to the truck stop, i`ll just buy tickets at the gate if we go. thanks Jon

yeah, even if you find another decent body in the northeast, it may be easier to just transfer over everything. there is a decent touring wagon down the road here for sale, and a few misc loyales in the area. not tooo rusty.

yes he is actually 85:rolleyes: clean roo

i still have the pics from meeky including the rusty areas if you want some "before" pics lol. i`m sure kurt gave you a deal on it. i`ve been considering dropping my 85 brat, since i just lifted the 82. some rally mudflaps would look sick on that.

is the hood actually new? if so where did you order it? car looks ALOT better than when meekymoose had it. did you lower the rear?
