  1. I'm not sure,can't make up my mind Resto-mod or resto. I like bumpers just not what came on her originally.I agree with moosens man,someone needs to try out an earlier bumper on the stage II. Anyone got any for sale?
  2. Well I'm not sure,I,ve never messed with that particular problem but, I would think maybe putting some heat on it might break it loose,unless the rubber is still there might be a trick. Or maybe vibration. Beat on it with a hammer and chisel. See if that will break it loose.Just a thought,might see what the other guys think. Great looking outfit tho! Good luck!
  3. Its only 4 hours! Thats just a little jog in the west!
  4. Oh I got ya,always learnin. Thanks for the info. Well so far no major issues with my car so far.Other than my ignition switch fryin.She runs cool and efficient no complaints! Not bad for $300 bucks! My old job was 80 miles round trip,I put over 5000 miles on the car so far,never left me stranded.
  5. Sorry nobangmycar I missed your question. Internally cooled. I didnt know Subaru made it any different.Sorry for my ignorance of being a newbie,but what were the differences cooling wise on the later models from the earlier models?
  6. Rub it in nobangmycar! lol I wish mine was a 4 speed. I did think of keeping it completely stock,but when I bought it,it had no front bumper only the rear. I really like the earlier 70s bumpers,the really nice skinny chrome ones.I wonder how well they would fit on the late sedan? As you can see in the last pic I have been working on getting the rust out,which isnt too bad.The floors are all solid,only rust is behind the rear tires and the front tires.Also had some bad cancer by the strut assembly.But the driver side is fixed!Just got the passenger side to go! If I took the bumpers off I would have to weld in some plates to cover where the bumper goes,but then sure as shootin I would be sitting at a stop light and get rear ended and that would screw everything up. Well thanks for the opinions so far,they always help out a lot.Keep em comin!
  7. Anyone else have a 2wd sedan? I havent seen many.
  8. Anybody in Wy wanting an 88 subaru gl-10 turbo?He told me he was taking it to the scrapyard if he didnt sell it.Bummer,he told me it needed a head gasket.149,000 miles one owner. Heres the link if anyone is interested. Probly pick it up for a song,sounds like he wants it out of there. http://wyoming.craigslist.org/cto/3843183494.html
  9. Thanks,well I'm thinking of converting it to a standard,What years of subaru trannys will fit?And wheres the best place to get parts? They are really hard to come by it seems.
  10. New Guy here to Subarus and Forums.Never messed with either before.Just thought I may share my new car that I got about 6 months ago,maybe get some advice and direction on what to do with this bad boy. Its a 1979 Dl sedan 2 wheel drive auto.I hate the automatic but man the little car just goes and goes.Its saved my butt a few times too when my other rig was broke down! So I use it as my daily driver now because I like it so much,and started cutting out the rust it had and am replacing with new metal.So let me know what you think and any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks
