BratWarrior Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I've been here. That green BRAT is almost mint, but the guy wont sell it. He has about 8 BRAT's. One is showroom new. Hidden in his garage. The others are pretty trashed. The prices are pretty damn steep ($400 for a door), but I've seen some rare spoob out there. It's a nice drive out there in the summer.

turbosubarubrat Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Isn't that turbosubarubrat's back-yard? =P hahaLol. Might as well be. It's johns subaru junkyard in gaston Oregon. I asked about the green brat pictured above 3 years ago and they said it wasn't for sale because John was going to restore it then I'm on portlands craigslist Tuesday and its on there parting out. My reaction was wtf! Why part out especially when I saw it in person it looked really straight and could be fixed very easily since he has all the parts to do. I heard his prices are better now from a few people but back then when I went and was being helped by a work hand they wanted $150 for a tail light and $60 for 1 piece of rear quarter panel trim! So I didn't even ask about a tail gate since its probably more than a door. I called him once on a ea81t distributor to get a price and they didn't know how much they wanted for it and never called me back. I think im sticking to my free to a couple hundred dollar subaru's I find(evil grin) for either parts cars or just to fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

92loyale59 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I have been there and his other yard . really nice guy. i got my rear LSD diff from him . it was out of a loyale turbo that was crashed in the 90's and it only had 54k on it . got i about half a year ago. Also picked up the neutral switch that mounts above the clutch pedal . that way when i did my EJ swap it could have that neutral signal.

josolong Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) mythic proportions. i got a set of 3rd gen eight spoke steels for $100, good a price as any. i was going to a yard in kittitas for them first but between when i called and a week later they had crushed all but three.. oye. so i went here instead. found word of john by chance on nasioc and followed the clues, glad i did. felluhs are just tearin cars apart in the woods day in day out with not a smile to crack, some real hills spoob.

Flowmastered87GL Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Its around here.... look at the satellite image. I have never been to the yard, but I have been on the street at work. 14000 SW Parmele Rd, Gaston, OR (that is NOT his address, but it gives you the basic idea on the map) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lastchance Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 i visited john in the late 90s, he had rare stuff then, and lots of it. i drove a pickup to his place one morning and grabbed some bits and pieces, he was a nice guy but i think he thought i was someone else. i think i heard about him from richie that owned a shop in vancouver, then moved the shop to portland by the airport.

Flowmastered87GL Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Richie never had a shop in Vancouver... he has always been in NE Portland. Started I think on NE 42nd, moved to NE 82nd, then expanded to E Burnside, then moved the 82nd location to NE Sandy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
