Subieguy Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 No such thing as a 76-77 Brat. The gen 1 Brat's are 78-81. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 John , all first generation Brats have the same side windows. The 2 door car glass is different but you could use the door if you needed one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBARU3 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Some BRATs were titled 77's Actually any 2 door car door will fit the BRAT, but you have to change the glass. Also, the "car" door had the internal side impact beam. The BRATs did not have these, as they did not have to meet the passenger car safety requirements. So in reality, you are better off wth the car doors on the BRAT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Yeah , some people don't want to hear it but the Brat started in 1977 , believe it or not. I bought a Gen I Brat cover from a guy who claims bought THE FIRST ONE at the dealership right next to Subaru of America's Hdqtrs on his way back home from one of the military camps. It was 1977 but not late enough for the '78's to be out. The dealer was literally rolling the Brat out and onto some ramps for display and this guy was driving by , pulled over , and bought it. He even showed my a slide he had of it back then. I think he was shooting slide pics on base and had a few shots left and took the Brat on its display ramps. The owner was from up here in CT but I'll be damned if I can remember the guy's name or which town he's in but its up near Waterbury.
