Ziginox

I'm pretty handy myself, plus I have family and friends that are even more gearheaded than I am, so I should be fine with that. I will have to see if I can find out where the RX came from... So, does anyone have pictures of the dealership cruise control buttons? And also, what are the vents in the rear quarter panels for?

Thanks very much, worked on the '86 GL Turbo I'm looking into buying. Also, it's pretty obvious that Harold214 and RezaColomboa082's posts were spam.

The engine was a complete rebuilt by Soo's Roos, the Subaru shop in Driggs, iD. And, if anyone is curious about the hatch being off an RX, the glas in the original hatch was shattered by a large TV and a hatch was cheaper than replacing just the glass. Strange that the hatch came from an RX though.

One quick question about cruise control on these models. I know about the dealer and factory systems are different, but I can't see to find a picture of the controls for a dealer-installed system. They would be on the left side of the instrument cluster, correct? Oh, and there was also a disconnected wiring harness at the rear of the engine compartment on the driver's side. Any thoughts on what it might be?

It does have some rust (one of the rear fenders has a tiny bit at the top, the bottom edge of the hatch does as well, some in the wheel wells, didn't look extensively at the bottom.) And it's in a very wet climate with hard winters (Teton Valley in Idaho.) I was considering asking $1200 for it at first. Thoughts?

Oops, I forgot to put that in there. The owner is asking $1,700 for it, which seems a bit high to me. Also, the engine has 65k less miles on it than the body and was installed by a shop that specializes in Subarus, so it was done properly.

So the story goes like this. I'm currently looking for a first car and I've spotted an '86 GL that I like. It has some condition issues, mainly the vinyl on the front seats and the clearcoat on the right side of the vehicle, but it's mechanically sound. The good: -The suspension is solid and feels right -The car has generally been taken care of, other than never being parked in a garage. -The engine sounds great and runs smoothly, no clicks. The engine itself was replaced in 2003 (overheated, blew a head gasket it seems.) -The transmission was solid, it stayed in gear and such and the clutch engaged properly with no slippage -The interior is a bit dirty but in generally good condition -Rust is minimal The bad: -The power steering pump is going out, but it's something my friend and I can replace -The gas cynlinders that hold the hatch open are bad -The paint on the passenger side is rough to say the least -The tires are worn and will need to be replaced soon. -It has 190k miles on it -Windshield has some cracks -Cruise control doesn't work The pics (the ugly?) https://www.dropbox.com/sh/amo4npdlam5o9rb/MLX5Re5F6a I test drove it earlier today and I loved it, however I'm not sure how much to offer. Any thoughts, and any comments about it? (I know about the EA82T's cooling problems.)
