pappy52 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 OK, maybe not $1.84, ($35.00 Title Fees, $23.00 Excise Tax, $.16 Sales Tax on $1.84), but I really ame pleased. It is 1993 automatic LS AWD 1.8 with 144,000 Miles. Interior needs to be cleaned, but not ripped up or trashed. Never saw it in the daylight until I picked it up, so figured it was a beater and thought I might be able to use the engine and seats. Surprise! Needs some stuff on the frount, (Looking), but everything works great and after reseting the jumped timing belt it purrs like a kitten(Sewing machine?) and can barely be heard. Am giving it to my niece and nephew so they can buy fixer parts, and I will install. http://jon.belandtechnology.com/subaru/impreza/ Cheers, Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookie Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Heck I was going to offer you ten bucks profit! That sounds like a run forever car if you give it a bit of service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitz Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 The underhood is incredibly clean, especially for an 13-14 year-old car! It doesn't look like it knows what road salt is. Friggin' salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Salt is a conspiracy to pollute the roads and cause early replacement of cars. Blitz you should move here to SF because we have lots of musicians, everybody is a bit crazy, and no salt! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. RX Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I have a front bumper ($50) and a front grille ($20) that I'll sell you. Here is a link to what it looks like, the grille that I have is similar to the one in the picture. http://corkysrocks.net/ImprezaFrtBumper.jpg Corky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the bumper cover or the heavy stuff behind? I need both. Also looking for the pass. side corner light at front of fender. Whoever had it before got a new hood, fender, radiator, A/C condenser, grill, and a couple of other things. I think he got the body stuff on, then started the car, ran crappy, (timing belt), and then said phooey. It's a '93, will yours fit?

Dr. RX Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 It's the whole bumper, beam and all. It will fit all early Imprezas, 93 to 96, the one in the picture is a 96.

pappy52 Posted January 5, 2006 Author Share Posted January 5, 2006 DONE! I don't have a PayPal or such, but I can meet you sometime and do cash. If I gave you an extra $10.00, could you donate it to USMB under my name? Jon Do you need me to do the removal or anything? Be glad to!

TheBrian Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 lol at the zip-ties! I think it's great how (presumably the previous owner) used $5 trailer turn signals instead of very expensive factory corner lights. I've always thought someone should do that for headlights, installing some of the old rectangular lamps on a new car. That looks like a great find. Good luck with it.

Andyjo Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 hey.. what's wrong with zip ties... they hold my bumper cover on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pappy52 Posted January 5, 2006 Author Share Posted January 5, 2006 Hey, I FOUND those in the trunk. Arn't they part of the car? They do fit nicely in the bumper though. I did have the grille zipped on also, but had to work on the hood latch, so took it off. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
