79 brat the guy wants more than 10K for it!!!
ha! 10 thow. yea right. its lifted, yea thats a plus, 140 HP now your talkin, but how much of it is subaru? if it had a engine in it other then subaru i wouldnt even think about buying it (not that i could) . and if i had one like that i would most likly get a ticket for the tires stickin out past the wheel wells (i already did) it would cost a pretty penny makin it street leagle again lol.

Great ideas (stuff ive done/doing)
yea thats exactly what i did. i sanded the cracks then filled them with bondo so they wouldnt show up threw the material then sprayed the whole think with krylon H2O paint (white) it helps reflect heat and its thick so it helps stop cracking (the paint works great on plastic, its washable). i was lookin for some kind of material to cover the dash with and found carpet... too thick and rugged looking, so i found my seat covers i never used and cut em up to fit the dash. i bought adhesive spray and presed the fabric on. after that it leaves you with one sweet lookin dash. do you want to see pics of it instaled?

Stand down! My Subie's been spirited off a hillside near Tucson!
that was amazing! nice story... ima put one too k? i just got paid. its a sunday and my ru has a full tank of high octane gas. and just gave her a tune up that now lets er break em lose on dry pavement with out poppin the clutch. i go by my buddies house and ask him if he wants to hit some mud, and yes he did. we later went to buckley in search of mud and it was nowhere to be found. so we went back to enumclaw. Boom an idea pops into my head.. GREEN WATER! we get to the famous road right off 70 and travel the mountains. the sights were amazing. but when we hit 3 dead ends (in which took hours to get to) we decided to go back to enumclaw once again. I had another idea. The Toyota Pit! so we are on our way, the back way to BD with 3/4 of a tank, we're still good for more exploring. we were crossing the green river bridge by flaming gysier and i cut it hard to the right and went down to the river, i pulled the ebrake and got out. i noticed that i could drive around under the bridge, i know.. not a good idea but hey you only live once. so i did, some dounuts then drove back up to the road and went to the other side, i drove right over the barrier and down the boat launch. from there i guned it turning her sideways and drifting all te way under the bridge and back into where i first enterd. Wow it was a rush, i mean who drifts ina river and under a bridge? so the fun was over and we head to Black Diamond. my buddy bradd wanted to see me really pull off some moves and on the roads i know, we went to this "toyota place". we found a bunch of drunkin dirt bike riders that had wrecked needed help so thats exactly what i gave em. they left and we rally'd into the gravel pit with a "lake" in it. we're flyin 3rd gear and i just got er sideways woo hoo, drift into a huge puddle (about 1 deep and 15' x 15') after splashing all the water out of that i hit the gravel and boooogggg. she dies in the middle of doin some Baaad AWD dounuts, WTF! i looked under the hood and was puzzled. she'd turn over so i was thinkin it was water in the carb? i got back in after 15 minutes of frustration and flip the ignition switch to try n start her again, I dont hear any clicking... Boom! fuel pump. i play with the wires and nothing.... i get mad and punch it. the SOB starts clickin? huh. so im outta there. we go the "easy way" and theres a gate, the ru stalls again! im thinkin the fuel pumps offically dead. i repeated what i did the first time and nothing, i punched it harder and it still said no. so get behind the seat and grab the almighty Hammer. a few gental smacks with that and we're back online. i went the hard way. and got home...
