Subaru Brat was really close to being my first vehicle in 1980, eventually bought a Mazda RX4. But have always loved the brats, Jeeps & 4x4s.
I always check classified just to see what kind of cars are out there.

A couple years ago I came across a 82 Brat (I think it was an 82) with only 50,000 miles. The guy was only asking $1,500.

Only thing wrong was someone stole the cat. converter. Everything else was looking brand new.

 

I knew I should have just bought it, but now after reading this message board I am really kicking myself.

Plus, on occassiions I pass the new owner on the road. (Heading the opposite direction)

Still looks great!!

 

 

Plus, last week I came across one with 60,000 looking good & they wanted $6,500

 

 Dangit!!!!! 

i hear ya,  i love brats, granted i was 4 in 1982, but they are just awesome!    wish i had one.

I was only being born in 1982.  Now I've got one, a targa top to boot.  Can't wait to get it on the road!

$800 not running, engine was full of er... "fluid" - about 15 litres of oil and water!

Cheers
