New guy with his first 1981 brat

Featured Replies

Hey everyone, I'm Dan Kindred in Washington state.  Just found this sight and it's already helped me big time.  I just bought an 81 Brat for 600 bucks.  It was taken care of pretty dang well, everything dent free except for the drivers side fender.  Bought it from my friend who bought from someone.  the owner said it has a blown head gasket, I was there when my buddy drove it up on the trailer... the owner cried a little.  anyways, my friend had a kid and never got around to fixing it. sold it to me after sitting in the garage for 3 years. and now... AT LAST I"M A BRAT OWNER!

Welcome aboard, Dan--Congrats!!!  Got any pix?

I don't yet.  But I will.  tried to post the one picture I had of it but it said it was too big.  I'll figure it out.  Yeah BRAT's are pretty cool I've always wanted one.

^agreed.

 

Im glad it went to someone who's going to use and improve it. 

Yeah great year to have! Should always be atop of the Gen I value list.

By the way Rabbit's my buddy who sold it to me, and has been crucial in helping fix her up.  Can't say enough good things about him.

Portland Brat owner here. Welcome to the club, it's important that we keep these baddasses on the road!

Suffering from Brat envy..........

I've got a second Gen for sale... ;)

Also, I was just informed of a first gen for sale at a local lot in Hayden (North of Coeur d'Alene).

 

To OP, congrats on the new acquisition! :)

Glad you found us and that we could help.

Don't forget to hit up the 1st Gen forum for any goodies or advice you may need.
