my newest and most favorite purchase-
1986 subaru brat. aka "the brumby"
40k miles on the car. World Rally Blue.
somebody must have bought this car/truck and sat it in a field for 10 years. the underside is pretty rusty while above the floorplans- its nearly spotless.
runs and drives awesome. scary over 60mph though.
All mechanical items work great, 4speed, dual range 4wd, heat and all gauges and lights work.
got it for a steal, put $400 in rust repair already but it was a worthwhile cost i think.
i've been reading lots trying to find some lift options for the old girl but finding info / parts for these things is a true art form.
when i first bought it. it literally crawled out of 10" of snow. the rear end is so light i watched two big dudes pick up the rear end entirely off the ground and set it over two feet.
custom SHEEPSKIN seat cover is so warm and cozy.
