EA81 Windshield Seal


Recommended Posts

There are no seals left in the US for windshield, tailgate, or drivers front door. Basically you have to buy parts cars or watch eBay and be willing to pay the extorsionist prices these parts are beginning to command. 80's Japanese stuff is hot and getting more so. Haggarty says mid 80's Toyota trucks will be in the $30k - $40k range in about 10 years.

 

The popular 80's icon cars are not long for the cheap transportation market. Their value is skyrocketing and parts are drying up. Same goes for American stuff. The prices for 3rd gen Trans Am's and IROC's have quadrupled in the last 5 years.... Of course $1500 x 4 still isn't a lot, but the trend isn't going to stop. People want the cars of their youth and this isn't going to stop.

 

Just saw someone asking $6k for a nice EA81 wagon in Portland. Get prepared to PAY for your restoration parts. A lot.

PRP should have them. If not you should contact them anyways so they know there is a desire.

 

We had ours made for us - 1970's Subarus - twice. The first time they said they would not stock any themselves but would make our order. The second time they decided to stock their own.

 

Common sense would tell you that if the older gen Subarus have a market then the later gen's would follow.

 

This subject comes up often.
