Hi
Here are some pictures of my newly purchased Legacy Turbo
Imported from Arizona USA to Denmark in 1996, 1 owner, 102k miles, interior in very good condition, all original but sadly need some rust repairs an both rear quarter panels and wheel aprons. And it wont start...

That's really cool, but I wonder why the original importer didn't get a legacy turbo from Japan or Europe, with +60 more HP stock.

Thanks
He lived in the states and bought it new and then took it with him when he moved back to Denmark

So does that make you the 2nd owner of the car? Congrats on your acquisition. Swapping to manual transmission is possible if you can find an older (such as 2005 or earlier) parts car (Impreza, Legacy, outback, forester...). Doesn't have to be from a turbo car.

Yes i am the second owner. The plan is to get it perfectly running change timingbelt, idlers, waterpump, all oils, all filtres and adjust the valves. Then i need to do the rust and when its done i might use it as a dayli. Im also restoring a 1988 XT turbo and when im done with that im gonna drive it during the summer and then I can convert the Legacy

congratulations Martin! that's a very unique car on this side of the pond. good luck with the renovation.
