It's always great to see people trying to save these cars from certain death. It's lookin' good so far. Make sure to keep us up to date Tim.

BTW, I'm diggin' the large Monster "M" on the side of the car... :twisted:

Welcome and good luck w/ the rebuild. I'm sure you won't be dissapointed in the results.

If you happen to find any extra sets of the glass headlights while you're parts hunting, they can be sold for a profit here.

I have this original Subaru Legacy nonturbo rear headlights because my right rearheadlight was broken.
Maybe i want to install the non turbo rear headlights so he looks like a non-turbo Legacy.

Hi Tim,

Wy do you want to lower the springs? The Turbo is already low.
If you once drive one, you'll notice that the tights of the original spring is already the popper one.

What is that special blue colour you are going to use? Is it lighter?
Is it going to be plane blue?

Your lucky guy. To recontruct you car, to have the time, the tools, and the time, is like a child dream for me.

Regards,

Rebuild it again, but better! Looks like it'll be less work this time around though.
