Making the crossmember fit should be easy but what about the EA81 frame rails (narrow) and the EA82 valve covers/motor (wide). The question is EA82 engine width vs EA81 engine bay at the frame rails lifted height...? Go Sko, GO! Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 84 GL Mad Max 01 Forester

I though hoists were things that neighbors owned and stored in their garages and you just borrow them when you need them!

Your dome light is probably the closest power source. Shouldn't be that tough to tap into. How are you planning on suspending the radio? What are you going to hook that into?

Those are the exact tires I want! Except I need 4 in a 14" size:-\ I'm going to have to give them a call. So are you, iciclelover or is that your competiton?

You have sooo many nice Soobies! My favorite is the red one. Nice job on the restorations! Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 84 GL Mad Max 01 Forester

Great video, I wanna come play! Trees? We don't need no stinking trees! They will just grow back! Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 84 GL Mad Max 01 Forester

Flack!, Flack!, Flack! Don't jump that old Subie!!! That is one of the best old Subies I have seen. Jump a $50 rust bucket. Best pictures I've seen! Glenn 82 SubaruHummer 84 GL Mad Max--jumping candidate? 01 Forester

You really need to have a "Graphic Content Warning" Those pictures are really gruesome:slobber:

Inspirational! Got to put that on my list... Great Pics! Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 84 GL Mad Max 01 Forester

Way cool! I didn't think they still made those type of tires! Great find! Thanks for sharing.... Glenn 82 SubaruHummer--needs street legal tires....

Congradulations!:cool: As soon as you make your next post you won't have the Magic 10,000 by your name any more...:-\ Oh ya,...throw in one more post for me:brow: Keep it up! Glenn

Do we know if this is an original motor?

That looks almost (but not quite) like the Book Cliffs down between Price and Greenriver. Where were you in Southern Utah? Glenn

It was!:lol: And there was enough left to get the build date! So... Build Date was 01/82 Motor Number 931272 This is all original, as I bought the car when it was 6 months old.

I have the original 1982 motor in my 82 Hatch (now buggy), I'll pull the numbers and dates and post them. I hope I have enough chassis left to find the build date?

In a good rain or snow storm you may start to fill that area with water? Is that area really much higher than the stock air intake height? Seems to me most snorkels are about looks and rarely if ever get used for the intended purpose?

Come on Utah, step up! This is a salvagable Soobie. Tell us more about it? Does it start? Does it idle? How does the motor sound? When it over heated, what happend? Has it over heated since? Someone must need a project car!

Yes! Yet another Subie saved:banana: A great success Story:D

A all the way! It makes it look orignal. How did you get two that looked so much alike:rolleyes:

Their web site isn't notibly helpful.

I think until you do the "Plywood Test" you really can't get an accurate measurement. Too many deceptive camara angles and parts that are lower in the center of the vehicle.

Welcome to the board! I didn't know anybody cared about the "cloud cars". But then again, everybody else probably does not know anyone cares about old Subarus either? Subies are great cars, I think you'll enjoy owning your new wagon. Glenn, 82 SubaruHummer 84 GL Mad Max 01 Forester

Has it got plates? I've seen many a car I though was abandoned until the license plates were run. Then things start to make sense? If it does, have some law enforcement buddy run them and see if that helps explain why it's there. Is there a pool of antifreeze, oil, tranny fluid under it? Could have broke down? The mystery deepens.....

Tell your wife it's an investment! You need to get one before they are all gone! Tell your son about it's potential. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showphoto.php?photo=2890&cat=614 "Just think Son, This could be you!"
