  1. Anyone rebuilding ea82 for 84" Subaru gl wagon 4x4 fwd.. ?? Cars in new Mexico.. cost?. Like one in pict...
  2. Has the 4 speed.** Late 84-85 had the 5speeds I'm pretty sure...but manual 4, speed on floor. W 4x4 on demand lever...all works as should...manual windows(crank,) No AC .analog dash(no digital) I like all non power stuff..less stuff to go wrong!!! In my opinion..

      Well first let me say that I hope the best for your mom. I have been in that situation so I can empathize how difficult & stressful it is. 

      So my situation is that, now that I am retired, I have begun to restore my 1984 Brat, which I purchased new in '84. I am actually looking for a parts car. These have become difficult to find. I don't think that there is  too much compatibility between our models but I will investigate this further. One advantage is that I have a close friend in Albuquerque who restores old Mercedes so it would be a logistical dream to grab your car and process it there. 

      Let me know how much you want for the car. My cell number is 516-240-3364 if you want to discuss or text further.

  13. Thanks just learning this car, bought basic Chilton to read n learn local of stuff..,Sad cause runs nice n even w no tune-up & new cap rotor plugs,n valve adjustmebt,should be good for my needs if so on them sensors, I bet the old guy I bought from never changed them,..was used as lil ranch vehicle in new Mexico..that metallic blue gl 4wd wagon...has all 5 wagon wheels n orig everything I'd say..
  14. Thanks,I,ll look,that be on exhaust below altenator etc on exhaust..**guess 84 was last year ea81 n it's 4 speed so don't know if has hydraulic lifters or not...been on learning curve w this car,hope to get it to be my fly-fishing n fishing transportation off road,so trying to learn .the crazy electrical scares me more than mechanical..been c10 Chevy guy over 30 yes.. & alot 60,s cars since I'm older guy..thought these be neat lil camping fishing rig,compared to a lil atv...thank u for any help...
