October 29, 200322 yr Here's the answer to all the guesses. '85... And BTW Corky, you are very quick for an old guy But it's Lucent grey.
October 29, 200322 yr Yea, that's what I was talking about, I forgot it isn't black, but a very dark grey. Yea, I like to surprize people every now and then, it keeps them on their toes.
October 29, 200322 yr Cool, I was salivating over that when MikeW first listed the link. But I already have a nice blue Brat; not quite as clean as this one but I'm happy with it. So, are you going to lift it or rallyX it?
October 29, 200322 yr Author Well, if I sell the Hatch it will be a street Brat. I will use it for Rally as well. If I sell the Legacy I will rally the Hatch. I haven't decided if I'm going to lift it or not. But I'm leaning... BTW, how did you figure that one Corky? I didn't even post on that one.
October 29, 200322 yr Sweet! Around here they were never that clean, new! I want one:slobber: :slobber: Good thing you got the club! Glenn, 82 Hatch, .....well it used to be.....:temper: 01 Forester, .....still is.............
October 30, 200322 yr Very beautiful Ken Can you get some closeups of that Winch and the mount? Looks like a modified short style A Bar. -Brian
October 30, 200322 yr When you were over at Ed's house on Saturday, you said that you were waiting for a phone call from that guy and if you could swing it, you'd get it. Basically, you told me. So when you posted that you had something to show Zap, I put two and two together. Heck I even remember that you told me it wasn't really black but a very dark gray. Loose lips, sink ships!!
October 30, 200322 yr Niiiice, I think I may just move to the west coast (sorry, Not California) Ken, where the heck do you work that you can always afford all these nice vehicles? If you tell me that you got it for like 200 bucks I promise you an envelope of anthrax in the mail.
October 30, 200322 yr That is the NICEST Brat I've ever seen. Keep it on the street, definitely (f not under a cover in your garage). Nice score.
October 30, 200322 yr Dammit why does everyone else seem to get deals on Brats, and I CAN NEVER FIND ONE :madder: :temper: :madder: :temper: :madder: :temper: :madder: :temper:
October 30, 200322 yr I Like It Ken!!!!! Really Pretty little thing.... Congrats on the "New" Baby!!!!! Vicky
October 30, 200322 yr That is the NICEST Brat I've ever seen. Keep it on the street, definitely GOD I hate it when people talk that way about Bi-drive Recreational All-terrain Travels. . . Lower a honda, street an RX, OFFROAD a BRAT!!! But seriously. It is a nice Brat, but by no means the nicest ever. The silver one he took to the Rubicon was in better condition than this one. (except the one dent the silver one had that the dent guy said he'd fix for 3 bills) Ken, where the heck do you work that you can always afford all these nice vehicles? It's called gotta sell one to keep this one, see selling my turbo wagon or hatchback. And. . . it was bought for a reasonable price for its condition and location. I thnk this one would have gone for about 2 times as much on the Other Coast. Stu's was about comparable to this one. Seen it in person I have. http://usmb.net/gallery/zapar/kensnewone
October 30, 200322 yr Very nice.... a lifted Brat just feels right.... still leaning towards lifting the turbo I still have one more change to make to my 82 that might raise it a little bit more....
October 30, 200322 yr Author Thanks all. I guess being really tired doesn't help the memory Corky. DOH! It's in fair to better shape. Eric is right. The silver one was in much better shape than this one. For now. I have plans for it. Lot's of little dings and a couple rust spots. Interior is in good shape and the engine runs strong. And it would have gone for at least twice what I paid for it on the other coast. No doubt. I'm the fourth owner. Started life in Utah. then Oregon and now Washington. BTW Brian, that A bar/winch set up is for sale. $200.00 Comes with switch and the lights. It's a short style bar. I will post pics in the marketplace.
October 31, 200322 yr Thanks Ken, just wanted to see the plate setup for when I fab my own. I would drop $200 on it, but i dont have a sube to put it on. My brat has a long a-bar, and the wagon has a full size FHI brushguard. Still a beautiful brat, and those 14's you put on it look like they were made for that car. I noticed alot of small dings, i guess to an east-coaster it would look imaculate. Still impressive how many gem's you find. -Brian
October 31, 200322 yr I'm glad you found it, and could get her. I really am. I may not see it in person but, I am glad someone found it and was able to give it a good home. IF i ever get back out to Cali or the left ocast I'll be hoping to meet up with all you lucky guys.
October 31, 200322 yr That is one sweet looking BRAT. I Love the wheels and the winch. Is the blue one yours as well?
October 31, 200322 yr Author Scott, yes, both Brats are mine. The grey one is an '85. The silver one is an '86. 'freak, they are Sen dels. They were made in the late 70's and early '80's.
