Nice looking wagon!!! Its in excellent shape for being on the east coast..Where did you find it in such good condition??????

Congrats Jon... In my opinion you can probably resell that and get at least 4,500 for it for sure because it looks extremely clean.

How is the rust on it?

The name of the yard is Hidden Valley Auto Parts, the website has exceeded their bandwidth..but their email is HVAP@aol.com

Id love to make this..but my brothers bachelor party is that night...maybe I can make it back in time hehe

Hope youre feelin OK man..and its good nobody was hurt...I think you should keep it on the road if it doesnt need too much money..what are your plans?

Chris, I saw a few D/R 5speeds at Harrys U pull it in Hazleton, PA..about 30 mins past Scranton.

I will second the BFG Traction T/A's

Well...im going to fix the bearings this week..once i get time then ill bring it on up to NY... hmm Weber eh??

On the way home, I noticed a sound coming from the wheels of my wagon, sounds like a loud squeaking sound..seems to go away at highway speeds, but slow its horrible..could it be the wheel bearings?? I also noticed that when the car is warming up when you push the gas pedal, it doesnt stumble..when its warmed up and running at normal RPM'S when you initially push the gas it stumbles a bit like it wants to stall out..replaced the plugs and still does it..any ideas?

Thanks!! Now i have to get my wagon wheels on there...and maybe do some other things..

Yeah this one turned out great!! My Legacy turned 100k on the way back too haha.

Yeah...im just happy it made it back with no problems

Thanks for the comments guys! The shipping company took the charge off my card since they couldnt come through with their services.

Haha sorry, I have all the pictures in one album. As for what its going to turn into, I havent really decided on that yet.....

Well, I got the wagon back from DC without a problem, ran great!! Let me know what ya think!! http://s89.photobucket.com/albums/k215/mattpappas/

Ah the roadblocks to getting a car titled in PA

Haha.. thanks for the words of advice

Well, Ive decided instead of towing im just going to drive the 82 wagon from DC back to Scranton, PA, about 280 miles. Im just worried about her breaking down on the way home. Hopefully it wont!! Any suggestions for the trip?? Is it a bad idea to drive it back? Let me know

Yup!! An 82 DL S/R woodie wagon!! Ive been an addict all my life I think..It all started way back when. The pic link below will show you my driveway when I was growing up... http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/photos/showphoto.php?photo=10751

Thanks guys...yeah it starting to take shape finally....Jon, the fender is a tad out of alignment from the previous accident, but not too much doesnt cause a problem with anything. Its almost road ready!! Yeah I think I have one of the only hatches in my area right now..os it is def a rare piece around here..Ill have 2 rare pieces if my 82 DL 4WD wagon ever arrives from DC (hopefully soon)

Well, took some updated pics of the hatch with the new front end installed..bumper, fenders..etc.. Let me know what ya think!! http://s89.photobucket.com/albums/k215/mattpappas/

Yes, the newer turbo subes require Premium fuel

Thanks for the advice GD, Im being as nice and polite as can be, and I am going to give them a few days to see if they worked on booking it as they said they were going to when on the phone with them yesterday. If I dont hear from them I will take your advice and ask to speak to a manager. I dont want to be a apain to these people its just that the seller wants the car gone and I want the car here.

I bought an 82 woodie wagon off of craiglist a few weeks ago and I got things set up with the shipper on August 25th. This is the day they were giving the info to their schedulers to schedule a pickup date in Washington DC, where the car is located. They claim they need 8-10 days to set up a pickup date, its been 2 weeks and im getting really annoyed. I called them today and they said" that should have been booked already" I told them the sellers temp tag has run out and Im afraid of it being towed away and they said " They were going to make some calls and make sure it got done." I never have dealt with shipping a vehicle before and am getting a bit nervouse because the company has alrady billed me credit card. What are your guys experiences with shipping a vehicle? How long does it usually take? Any suggestions? Thanks, Matt
