I had the pouches remade by a local upholstery shop. Either way its a great touch when people inevitably start asking questions. Ah I miss my brat.

Moosens beat me to it. I 2nd the early 70's hubcaps.

Surprised they would be made of plastic. But good call.

Those little pouches are the covers for the seat belts located in the bed. The big plastic cover doesn't appear to belong to a brat, maybe a wagon panel if that.

It might be easiest to just buy the make your own sheet and cut out what you need. instead of scouring the eternal planes of the world for some old gasket material

I got the 6 year 80k mile one though SoA for my sti. Well worth it. Had a power-steering leak which fried the entire system. Covered under warranty.

Too bad I you didn't have this for sale before I sold my 78!

Sorry for my lateness in replying! I did not replace the rear shocks but I did notice they had been replaced at some point. I'm pretty sure when I was cleaning the rear wheel wells up I saw the shocks were white with red covers and I *think* were Rancho branded. I did a quick google search and these might be potential replacements. http://www.jcwhitney.com/pn/c11298p5261j1s45.jcwx?filterid=d1927y1978g81

Sounds like there's a bunch of stuff that the previous owners installed that needs to come off. Try cleaning it up and putting it back to stock. Replace with a new fuse able link & check the fuse block inside the cab (driver side kick panel). Clean or replace the fuse block. Also, the head light circuit will most likely have a ton of resistance which will in turn overheat that fuse block. Go on ebay and find the plug and play head light relay, its something like 40-50 bucks and it will fix the head light circuit issue.

Best of luck to you, this one looks like it could be a mixed bag. Some great potential here.

Hi Charlie, I'm sad to hear your health is on the decline and wish you nothing but the best. I hope the new owner of your stash fulfills your initial desire to get the brats back on the road. If you were close to me I would seriously consider being you're buyer. -best, Spicy

December 8th, 2013 - May 19th, 2017. So it is with a heavy heart that I write this post. Today, my Brat is no longer in the garage. I've parted ways with her, and hope that the new owners appreciate her as much as I have these last few years. My intention when I originally brought her home was to save her from the scrap yard. I wanted to give it new life, take care of and restore her so that people would be proud to hop in, go for a ride and have fun. I feel I've made the little old Brat proud.

Let me know when you're ready and we'll make a deal for the brown 4 spoke you have.

Any movement on the pics? Sounds like all three of us would be happy.

Hello fellow Californian. Grats on the new find first of all. In going through the hassle of getting my 78 snogged, the car originally shouldn't have come with cats. That said, I would rebuild the carb, have it tuned and see if it passes. If you can't get it to pass, just have a cat installed by a local exhaust shop.
