This is a 1978 Subaru 4WD DL Wagon. This old girl was abandoned at my friends subaru shop and I couldn’t just let her die in a junk yard somewhere. I feel that she’s got some more joy to give. So, I towed it back to my house and started throwing parts at it. I think it has a rebuilt engine, from what I was told and what I’ve seen, but I’m not 100% on that and I can’t prove it.
Things I’ve replaced:
Brand New Weber Carb
New header back exhaust system.
Alternator
Battery
Voltage regulator
Distributor
Condenser
Heater Control valve
Heater Core
Brakes (calipers, rotors, drums, pads and fluid)
Old School Shifter Fix
Seat RailsEverything works and works well. It is what some would call a rough looking car, but that’s what I call charm. There is rust, the dash is cracked and the front seats are well used. It has dings and dents, but gets 30+ MPG. It will need new tires very soon. I know a guy that can hook you up with some sweet 13in winter tires for cheap. He’s legit and owns a local tire shop.
This could all be yours for the low low price of $1200. I’m located in Portland, Oregon. Let me know if you’re interested in continuing her journey. I can be reached by email or phone to set up a meeting. Earl 971-255-2970 or jgb.design@gmail.com

Thanks, I have a bunch of new customer's Subarus to put up on site.

Looks good. Glad you had them installed by a professional. Can I use your photos to put up on the retro auto decal site under customer's cars?

Do people not know the difference between gen 1 and gen 2 subarus?

I haven't produced them yet.

I'm still hoping to send the whole thing out the door as a package, although that hope is slowly fading with time—not quite ready to start dismantling it yet, though. What parts are you looking for?
interior bits and taillights.
-
I'll buy some parts off of it. I'm in Portland too. When are you available. I'm free mon-fri after 6pm. or weekends.
text me @ 971-255-2970

I'm thinking of reproducing this vintage BRAT shirt. How many of you would be interested in buying one or some? I'm trying to gauge how many I should get printed up.

Any progress yet?
Earl , shooting for having your seats in motion this weekend. Have to finally make things happen.
Anybody local that thinks they might want to stop up and help and shop for parts is welcome. I'll be spending much of daylight as I can both days. Sunday I wrap up around 2:00pm the latest. -
Yes , and they sit right near the front. You're going to see them this year , this spring , or this winter..... Have the rear upper and lower and the passenger front. They'll go Greyhound. I'll ship , you can pay when you get them.
Earl my brother , I just had to pass on Brian from MT's tailgate wagons. But please keep an eye open for me for one or an early coupe or stage one 4wd wagon over the coming year(s). My son is likely going to college out west so you will eventually see me out there and I'm sure I'm dragging something back east.
Cheers ! And happy frikkin new year !!
I'm actually looking to sell the 2 I have. I really need to focus on my coupe and I'm running out of room fast. Let's see if we can't work something out.
