Endless possibilities.
What do you want from it ?
Lifted ? Go off roading ? Lower and look pimp ( my apologies ) , go faster ?
Stay close to stock ?
The “if I had your money I’d ....” thread.
This ought to be fun.
Best of luck. You have a base and money and I’m assuming youth on your side. Should be fun. Enjoy !
Seen it lifted and liked it. Makes sense for a 4x4 for sure. Perhaps swap engine for extra power after a while but as Scott said I appreciate the reliability of the 71. Yeah definitely encouraging the “if I had the money I would...” suggestions for sure to get an idea of what the weird enthusiasts out there have conceptualised!

New here, hope this post fits guidelines!
I recently inherited a 1980 4x4 Brat and I'm at a loss as to what to do with it. I've tinkered in the past but this will be my first ever full project and I'm hoping to get some suggestions/feedback from anyone who has taken on an older Subaru!
Some info:
- EA71 had 80k OG miles and was recently resealed by a friend of mine. Currently runs and drives no problem.
- Rust isn't too bad, currently grinding out
- All original glass and body
- All interior stripped - still have but thinking about spraying bed liner on floor
- Missing door cards
- Dash is cracked but not the worst looking
- Have OG seats but badly need re-upholseting
- Pics here
Willing to put about $5k into it immediately, $10k tops - what's your take?

That’s super helpful thank you! I have a hard time thinking about projects linearly as has been proven by my failed 1986 Toyota Dolphin remodel.
