Just bought a 99 subaru legacy L wagon.  This is my first subaru, and my first time on a car forum and wanted to say Hi. Had it only for a few days, but its the coolest car I've had.  Now I'm ready for the Wisconsin winter.  Already have a few ideas for improvemnents, and there are a few things to fix for sure. 

 

 

Did you find that on the south end of town. I saw a very clean one much like this on a lot in crudahy. Good luck with it. Hit me up at the oil change shop by the airport. I am your local subaru guy if you need a hand or a part.

Actually I got it from a guy up near UWM who moved here from Reno.  The car has never seen a winter and had no rust on it anywhere so I was sold.  Whats the name of your shop?

Welcome! Nice looking car. And rare to find a rust free one in the midwest! Used to live out that direction until a little over a year ago. Miss it a lot.

 

If you're planning on romping in the snow, do a few searches on here. Outback or Forester struts and springs can be bolted to your car with no modification for a few inches of lift and to clear bigger tires so you don't get stuck when the snow gets deep.

Thanks, Thats awesome.  Man, Its got 170k on the clock but it feels like its just getting started.  I'm hoping soon I can start doing some simple repairs and modifications.  I've got bulbs coming tomorrow to replace a few burned out lights on the shifter and dome.

So you are on the east side? I am in the riverwest hood. Nice score on a rust free western car. I was lucky to find an Idaho impreza for super cheap. (perhaps we can trade one day ).

 

I work at an oil shop 'scrub-a-dub' on s howell at college ave. I have garage space if you ever need a place to work on your car, or the help. 

 

Please do take rust preventive precautions and keep the car washed thru the winter. Look me up on facebook locally "Miles Fox".

 

Your s appears to be a 35th anniversary .

 

I have the follwing: 

96 impreza rust free riding on forester suspension and outback wheels

98 legacy outback limited woodie with hardwood floor in the wayback

98 forester lowered on impreza struts and 2.2 swapped, panel van idea with plastiu dipped windows and all white body

96 legacy wagon on ouback struts-cut and weld project in the making

86 EA82 3door coupe with RX driveline and body kit, 5 lug and impreza engine

97 outback wagon as a parts car, but is also a complete daily driver, hot swappable for parts for my other cars. It was to be parted out, but perhaps parted togethger with leftover parts to keep it aas a complete operable car

the old man has a 98 forester, black with chrome wheels and 'subaru alliance' decals on the side.

 

I have a 'SUBARU ALLIANCE' decal for you if we can catch up for subaru enthusiasm (old subarus get me excited){a 1998 is the newest i have ever owned out of a good 50 subarus)

 

Anyway, Welcome to the USMB and see you around town.
