before I got it!
obvious front end damage!
check the radiator core support!
I am not going to make any engine swaps or major mods...just a reliable 6 day a week ride!
I acquired a second, or third, or fourth car to be solely a delivery vehicle (my second job). Yes it is boring compared to the WRXs and STIs around, but it is my first Subaru!
One of my co-worker's son was involved in a collision and in a series of transactions it ended up in my hands. The previous owner had it in his back yard for a year before it was on its way to the scrapper.
after cleaning up the broken pieces and pulling, hammering, twisting, and cutting here are a couple of shots:
still a little crooked!
oops, hood wasn't latched...doubled my investment in the car!
something missing?
Plain Jane EJ18 auto FWD...perfect for navigating neighborhoods for hours at a time!
Picked up another tail light, headlights, corners, grill, radiator fan, ac condenser and 2 tires.
hood replaced and rattle canned black! I did not realize how jacked up the front end was until I put the straight hood on. More tweaking!
look at the mile deep tread on these tires..whoo
New muffler bling...
a couple of updates:
new windshield and replacement hood
Was having caliper seizing. went from tiny brakes to small brakes.
new calipers an rotors would not fit under the 13" steelies, so I picked up some used 15x7 aftermarkets for $50.
After bead blasting them, they looked like this.
painting!
Here on the car! No, they are not the correct offset, but I will live with it for the price!
Not pictured is the 20mm Legacy Outback front swaybar, and 19mm rear bar (from pull-a-part) and RS coil springs.
