February 1, 20224 yr I hate to do it. This old girl was my father-in-laws ride and has been my reliable mountain car forever. However my mechanic suspects I may have a head gasket problem, I overheated the car (once) and now don't have the time to repair/restore. She's dark green, gray below.NO rust- all sheet metal in very good condtion. Grey leather interior with no damage, tears, or stains- everything works. Last summer- new breaks, new struts. Windshield is 2 years old. She starts and runs quietly- no valve noise. Tires are OK, wheels have some typical pitting but are not bent. Clear title. The car is located in Lakewood, CO. No photo at the moment- I'm working out of state.
February 11, 20224 yr please contact me at (269) 666-4923 i have a 99 and want to figure out the interchangeability between my car and yours since i have a legacy wagon and you have an outback… i’m just looking for a parts car
February 12, 20224 yr About 99% of the parts will bolt right in either way. You will not believe how nice it is to work on a Colorado car. I can go to the yard and pull just about anything with very little problems.

Some trim differences. Struts taller but swap, Brakes bigger but swap Most legacies are 2.2s unless they’re a GT wagon or LSi. Those are 2.5. If yours is a 2.2 that’s a Phase II and has some differences from the 2.5 outback. 99 is odd in that 2.2s are phase II and 2.5s are Phase I. Outback’s are all 2.5 in 99, legacy can be either depending on trim. The outback engine will bolt right in but doesn’t plug right upand won’t run on the 2.2 electronics (like it will on 98 and earlier 2.2 electronics). You can however bolt 2.2 heads to the 2.5 block. So there are options to use the engine.
