February 24, 200521 yr I'm going to look at this car tomorrow with a fellow board member, but I want to get as many opinoins on it as I can. Ant and all thoughts are appreciated. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4530005563&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT#mainImage
February 24, 200521 yr Well it's a rust box with a slush box, I'd give him $50 maybe $75 bucks for it.
February 24, 200521 yr FT4WD is awesome, turbo is great, and the mileage sure is right on that one. Looks like some potentially nasty rust. Check it out VERY carefully, especially underneath and inside the rear fenderwells. Look under the bench of the backseat for rust-through. Most definitely worth the $300, but I wouldn't give any more than $500 after looking at that rust. If there's any rustout up inside the rear fenderwells, especially near the strut mount, avoid the car like the plague. You don't want to end up with one of these: For you west-coasters- the Subaru market out here is a totally different world.
February 24, 200521 yr Well it's a rust box with a slush box, I'd give him $50 maybe $75 bucks for it. Like I said, the eastcoast market is a totally different world. You'd get laughed at/cussed out around here for that. As for the automatic- it's a 4EAT. The best auto Subaru ever made. Not hardly as much of a slushbox as the nefarious 3 speed.
February 24, 200521 yr Up here in Alaska that car would be worth at least $1,000 dollars. I had two of those same cars, also the same color. They were great to drive. With the turbo you had enough power to get you moving when you needed it.
February 24, 200521 yr Can you weld? A panel beater would charge a lot of money to fix that rust, but you could do it yourself easily if you have the gear.
February 24, 200521 yr Author I work at a car dealership and my neighbor is a blacksmith, so between those two I think I could patch it.
February 24, 200521 yr Author Well I really have no time or money to fix it, so do you recommend passing on this Gl and waiting for a better one?
February 24, 200521 yr Yes, I say pass. They're better ones out there. Even in Va. Email your # and I'll hunt down here for you too. Jay But, I do have most of the parts to make it into a 5 speed.
February 24, 200521 yr pass, pass, pass, pass, pass - The rust looks VERY bad on it - even consitering east-coast prices I think $100 would be generous, MAYBE $150 BTW - the radio is not original
