I'm guessing that you're talking about the targa stripe decal. A member here, Pooparu, makes them. Look here

Actually, our neighbors have been helpful in giving what information they can. It's just that it was likely a trusted outsider/helper (we have a good lead now) that hauled them off and the neighbors can't always be around to be see/stop everything... SuperBrat, that was probably my dad since I'm just getting back to the area after 9 years. Plus I recall him mentioning your Brat; he's not shy.

Yeah, they're visible from the road, but in a small rural town that nobody drives through unless they live there or have some sort of connection. There is no other reason to visit and no way of really knowing it's there/stumbling on it. No notice or reason. I was there Sunday and today's trip down discovered the latest victim. (And you can actually scrap a car without title. Won't go into how, but it can be done.) Gen 2 wagon - The famous Applewagon

Sorry if this is the wrong section, mods, please move as necessary... We currently had a bit of bad luck as 4 of our cars were hauled off of our property in Thronton, WA. We're guessing as scrap due to the pure junk status of one of them. And, as Thornton is in the middle of nowhere, they would have had to travel a bit to get off the radar. They disappeared around the 3rd or 4th of October. They were a gen 1 wagon, gen 2 Brat, gen 3 wagon and XT6. The XT6, in particular, is rather special and missed. Gen 3 wagon - no picture, but it's normal good shape, dark maroon with blue fender on driver's side Gen 1 wagon - it's in even worse shape from other angles and the rear rocker panels are blue Brat - has a maroon tail gate and hard to see, in the picture, but is gold/bronze (ugly) and has those zebra panel things on the doors XT6 - doesn't have roof racks, but the rest is current minus more dirt License plate: 108 ZDQ VIN: JF1 AX9429 LG300010

I need to get you the title... Oh and Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday forever and when do I get my parts? :-p

I love this project and I wish you all the luck. The only question I have is in regards to the proximity of the BMC to the turbo. Is it going to be close enough that you're going heat up your brake fluid? (I know pretty much nothing about brake fade and blah blah, so I ask to invoke more informed members...)

My sister has a 2010 Outback and a third kid on the way. She said it isn't wide enough to fit three car seats (4 year old, 2 year old and newborn), so they ended up adding a Tahoe. I imagine a 2007 will have the same problem but worse.

Curious... How many of those did I cut the leads off of?

I agree. ^ Subaru is going in the right direction and we're ragging on them for it? That's what doesn't make sense to me. I'll even go so far as to say the looks are all right. Sure it's nothing to write home about, but that's not what we love Subarus for anyway. Besides, at least they're finally moving on from the current generation of styling (or complete lack there of).

You're probably talking about this car. It has been in the works for a while. It's a shortened Legacy chassis with a Subaru boxer drive train. I'm quite excited to finally see the Subaru version come out. We'll finally get to see a proper Subaru sports car. One where they're not held back by AWD, so they can mount the engine lower and further back; take advantage of the boxer's low center of gravity.

Nice car. It's the twin to my wagon, but much prettier. Why are you so eager to get out of the 2.2? I've got an extra 50k on my drive train and haven't had power issues. Even climbing mountain passes with a full car (people and luggage) only needed a down shift to maintain speed.

The covers aren't that rare, are they? My dad and I each have a set.

I popped apart a ball joint and bent a strut rod one time. One strap went from the control arm to the spring to hold the control arm to the knuckle. (Ball joint would no longer stay up in the knuckle on its own.) Another strap went from the control arm to the front tow point to keep the whole assembly forward.

That was it. Thanks a ton.

That may just be it. It's a '95 block and I'm pretty sure I used my '93 intake. When I get home, I'll give that a look. Thanks.
