July 5, 200718 yr So while at an 'oldschool' meet this last weekend, I got talking to a guy who said he had some brochures I might be interested in. Two days later in the mail. AUS/NZ 1981 Subaru sales brochures. Mint condition! Looks similar to the US ones but a bit different. One has a price written on it, $12395! I have higher res if anyone would like. The cover Inside page 1 inside page 2 Back cover #2 Cover Inside Pages Inside folded out
July 5, 200718 yr Those make you want all of them! I love that little yellow brumby second picture down. All of them are great! Thank you for sharing!
July 5, 200718 yr Nice on the eyes!! If you have high res, I'd love those!! subaru3@aol.com Thanks! Todd
July 6, 200718 yr Always loved that 70s lime green and the white 'Subaru' stripes. It is funny how many people think I have re-painted my 78 wagon but it is still the original lime green and white stripes!
July 6, 200718 yr Author Rotated! Todd, email on the way hopefully. I also am really digging the crazy eighties colours, had originally planned on leaving the brumby beige, but that green with white decals is pretty appealling at the moment. Cubastreet- I didn't enter the trackday, nasty clacky cv's, clutch on its way out didn't really seem up for it, I will be better organised next year. I guaruntee it. Pictures will be taken.
July 6, 200718 yr OK my ute should be back on the road in a couple of weeks too so we can duel, I doubt many others will have such lame power/weight ratio.
July 6, 200718 yr Author Oh I dunno. There were a few slugs there. Two road going gen 1 brumbys in one place would be awesome. I might post a few pictures of the weekend here, you guys might find them interesting.
July 6, 200718 yr Anyone else spot that little white cooling fan positioned on the engine? Don't think I have seen one positioned in that way before.Especially on the pushrod motors. Looks like a ea71 if I had my guess. Did all of the non U.S. models come this way?
July 6, 200718 yr Author http://picasaweb.google.com/oldschool.co.nz/OldschoolNatsParkupOtherStuff07 A few pictures of the brumby can be found there amongst some other the other cars that attended.
July 7, 200718 yr The New Zealand ones were assembled here, and they were slightly different spec. My ea81 has a fan like that plus an electric fan.
July 7, 200718 yr Author The New Zealand ones were assembled here, and they were slightly different spec. My ea81 has a fan like that plus an electric fan. Really? ************ thats awesome to know. NZDM.. or something. Also, todd, my email is going insane, tryed 3 different clients to send it, I'll get them to you eventually, just have to keep trying.
July 7, 200718 yr The New Zealand ones were assembled here, and they were slightly different spec. My ea81 has a fan like that plus an electric fan. That is very interesting. None of the U.S. models( I am pretty sure anyway) came with a belt driven fan. I believe the first ones were on the ea82's. Someone please help me out if I am wrong. I find this kind of stuff very interesting!
July 7, 200718 yr Author And yeah, all 5 ea81's I've had round have had the fan now that I think of it.
