Skip Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Well guys and ghouls I have joined the ranks of the Gen I Brat owners. I plan on making a matching pair with the Brat go-cart I own. She is a 78 and has 60 kmi. I am the third owner. She was pasted down from father, who bought it new, to son to me. Son is in his 40's. Very little rust and she has led a good garaged life. I may get spanked by the pretty one when she finds out..... good thing it has a cap, I need to sleep in her!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrKrazy Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Ohh nice score Skip...looks like a beauty...how about some more pics? I love those years of brats and would almost give up my RX to find one like that!..almost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carfreak85 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Wow, except for the exhaust not being original, that car looks really incredibly stright and clean for its age! I like your idea of a matching pair, but the question begs asking, which will they be matched to? The brown brat or the red (?) go kart?

Bucky92 Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 NICE!!!! What potential!.. I think the paint might come back with some compound and a buffer.

mattocs Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Are there more Brats in your area, Skip? It seems that north of Pittsburgh they are rare. I've only seen one here...but i've seen it multiple times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moosens Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Paul- if there is such a thing as a center console?or a dash with out a crack? I've got a stage I that doesn't do you too much good unless you get desperate.I shall dig deep within all sources.One guy stopping by tomorrow has a serious collection,and he's not a board member.I'll see what he has for you. Hey,if you have my number still please call me tomorrow.....preferably while I'm at the workshop late in the AM or in the afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moosens Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 Is that Subaru Badge on the right side of the hood original? Yes,that's where it belongs.Now for punishment for not knowing that,you must drive southwesterly for around 150 miles on Saturday. Hope you can make it. Wish Skip could too.

Hope you can make it. Wish Skip could too. I wish it were only 150 miles... my arithmetic is bad... it takes 3 hours with not getting lost AND breaking the speed limit (by a whole bunch, I might add...), I'm innocent!
