Kinda a problem here in the Midwest, I don't see very many at all.

Are these pieces still up for grabs? Mainly the A/C system at this point.

Yeah, I've totally got the Soob fever now! I have to SO get this 1978 Brat:clap:

I did not really do a very good job at introducing myself in my first post:slobber: My first Soob I purchased was an 1984 GL10 Wagon in 1995, it WAS loaded:burnout:. What an awesome car that was...kicking myself NOW that I ever let it go:banghead: Only drove it a couple of years before some kid cut me off and opened my left front fender like a tin can:mad: Didn't think it was worth it to fix it so I traded it for a 1996 Outback in 97', that was of course another AWESOME car too, drove that one for 11 years before donating it to a REALLY good cause & I still get to see it every day at work:D At that point I fell off the Soob wagon and got in Toyota Highlander OOPS... not nearly as comfy as the Soobs I was previously in go figure.... Well still not back to the Soob wagon yet, went for a Tahoe JUST for the leg room & to be able to pull some stuff here and there along the way. Finally got my wife to get a Soob after the VW Jetta stranded her in the middle of the road one day (alternator and battery died simultanously) So partly back to a Soob at least got an 08 Tribeca, good car I was just hoping the MPG to be better than it is. OH well. Like I said in the first post I am concidering getting an 1978 Brat well this forum is just kinda feeding that desire more and more So I look forward to all the input that has been posted already to this point & for the ones to come in the future. SO Greetings ALL:headbang:;)Glad to be here!

That is VERY cool! I want one TOO:)

This one is forsale on CL, I'm trying to talk my Wife into letting me get it WITHOUT getting Divorced:clap: He is only asking $850, drivetrain is good as well as the engine. Just needs overhaul on the brakes. If anyone could give me a rough esitmate from low to high of what a brake DO would run that might help my case with the wife;)

I am 6'5" too, what is your inseam? (My inseam is in the 36" range) I am seriously concidering getting a 78' Brat, my only issue is that I have never sat in one and this one is about 2 hours away from me. I have issues with sitting in a Rav4 so I am kinda concerned that it might be to tight for me. :-\ So I am trying to asses where other people my size are at in one. Thanks for your time. Heath

I'm in Wichita Kansas, considering getting a 78 Brat. Any advise from anybody here would be appreciated:-) Thanks Heath
