March 31, 201016 yr And never had to leave the Farum Glad you got that biff, looks like an honest deal I'd be interested in details of how the transaction transpires from here.
April 4, 201015 yr Author Well so far so good. Paid in full and the title is sent. Shipper is picking it up Tues and it should arrive on Sat...caint wait...
April 7, 201015 yr Author Well shes on her way. They sent me a pic of it on the shipping truck.. Looks like it could be crushed.....
April 7, 201015 yr very cool ! hope it works out well for you . where is greenacres fl ? i'm in pt. charlotte southwest - little south of sarasota
April 7, 201015 yr Author Im actually in West Palm Beach, FL. Thats on the East Coast bout 3 hrs north of Miami.
April 8, 201015 yr i saw a tranporter go by my jobsite today , looked for your brat - not on that one ! i wish you all the best with your new toy . do you see any older subaru's around west palm ?
April 8, 201015 yr Author No... not at all. There was a 79 wagon a few years back but that got sold to Moosens and ended up in CT. That was the only other one Ive seen since Ive been back here in FL for the last 5 years.
April 8, 201015 yr I had my Brat down there a couple years ago. (Towing it behind my Titan) I was working in Key West for almost 2 years, then worked up in West Palm (renovating the Crowne Plaze). Didn't drive it around much in West Palm though. I had it ALL OVER Key West. (Along with my 360 pick-up). Cheers! Oh hey, I saw that Brat on eBay. Nice Brat! Doesn't look it's too far from being VERY nice! Good Find!
April 9, 201015 yr Author If your ever in this neck of the woods again, give me a shout. Would luv to see any brats.
April 21, 201015 yr Author Well this baby needs work... Its lacking power. Did a full compression check and cylinder 1 and 2 are fine, 3 almost nothing and 4 nothing... Not very happy news.. Was told it ran fine when I bought it. Feeling a little dooped. :-\ Could be blown head or worn piston rings or leaking valve. Both plugs 3 and 4 were wet. I want to just bang my head right now!!! Cant get in touch with the seller either.. Not returning my calls. Help me YellowSub.... Where are you? Im sure this is going to be a costly job!!!!!!!!:-\ Any suggestions..
