New To Leg Cent

[sonicfrog]

Hey All:

I am usually over at USMB but thought I'd drop by. My post is the same one I posted over there. I am a regular on the Old Gen list, and thought I'd drop by, since I may become a regular here too. So if you frequent that site, this post will look familiar.

I may have found the steal of the century... well, for me anyway. While at the Yard today looking for a 5 speed D/R tranny (found none) I ran into a guy who wants to get rid of a Subaru. It is a 94 Mi (?) wagon, not running, 152 k miles. for $200. He thinks its the clutch (its a 5 spd ). I went and looked at it and, except for the eight months of dust accumulated on the body, it looks very good. Interior is very clean and in very good shape. He couldn't find the key, which probably doesn't matter since the battery is D E D dead, so it probably wouldn't start anyway. So before I decide to buy said beast, I would like someones help and run the vin on car fax for any needed info.

Here is the VIN: 4S3 BJ6336 R6957256

Thanks in advance for the help.

PS. Dude is leaving town for a week so I will have time to think this through.

PPS. What mods do people do with these 94's. Engine Swap? Tranny?
