By the way - don't feel limited to the ealry to mid ninties - any suggestions for the earlier models is welcome as well...

Hi all - first post here. I'm looking for some advice. A buddy of mine and I are looking at picking up an older Subaru wagon for a project. Our intention is to lightly modify it for off road use as a chase vehicle for our off road motorcycles, camping, etc. We don't intend to really do any hardcore off roading with it. We've been looking around here, and there's a decent amount of early to mid-ninties GLs and Legacys. The question is, which is better suited for off road? We plan to lift it a couple of inches and put bigger tires on it, etc. Is parts availability an issue with either? The Legacy seems to have more power but is bigger and heavier. Any advantages/disadvantages for either? Any suggestions or personal recommendations would be welcome!
