This is a custom Subaru Brat.  I bought two of them when I was in Alaska and was able to make one good one out of the parts from the other.  I get a lot of cool stories and thumbs up everywhere I go with it.  This has been my daily driver for the past 6 years.  I have done all the mods myself.  The only things that have ever gone bad for me were the starter and alternator.  I have put new wheel bearings and seals, axle shafts, and larger radiator for the larger engine.  It has a fuel injected 2.2 out of a 1995 wagon with 170hp.  The stock engine only had half of that. The engine had 80,000 on it when I removed it from the wagon.  I have since put about 3000 miles/year.  I work only 6 miles from home and ride my motorcycle often.  It has 6 lug hubs with new Chevy 6 lug wheels and tires.  I put a 5 speed out of a 1989 wagon in it.  The Brat never came with a 5 speed.  This transmission is a 4x4.  The original 4 speed comes with the truck as well.  The 4 speed has 2hi, 4hi and 4low the 5 speed has just 2hi and 2low.  The linkage in the 5 speed is getting loose and will need some attention soon but still works fine.  It comes with 3 sets of wheels and tires.  One set of U255's with Strata 255/35ZR20 tires 75% tread left, the second set is Good year Wranglers P235/75R15 on new black rims with 90% tread left and the third set were studded tires I used in Alaska.  I removed the studs and the tires are almost bald now but the wheels are good.

Extra parts that come with this truck are:
hood
4sp transmission
driveshaft
T-tops
T-top seals
Rear axle
Various trim pieces

This is NOT a rust free machine.  It has rust forming on the fenders and under the doors.  The floor is usually the first to go on these but this one is in great shape.

Vehicle is for sale locally and  will end auction early if vehicle is sold locally.
Buyer is responsible for vehicle shipping or pickup.
If full buy it now is payed I will throw in a tow dolly so you can transport easier.
Please feel free to ask any questions.

2019 Subaru Forester Buyer's Guide | What you need to know about this crossover

Mon, Oct 29 2018

The 2019 Subaru Forester is its fifth generation. The popular crossover is Subaru's second-best-selling model in 2017 after the Outback, and it received subtle updates, a more rugged appearance and some new technology for the new model year. It's built on Subaru's new Global Platform, with a 1.2-inch longer wheelbase for a smoother ride and 1.4 more inches of rear legroom. There are new, more comfortable seats in front, a wider tailgate opening, more cargo room and standard EyeSight driver-assist technology and Starlink infotainment package, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Five trim levels are offered: Base, Premium, Limited, Touring and a new Sport model. All models share a CVT as the only transmission option, and the latter two are offered with a manual mode and steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters. With this buyer's guide, Autoblog aims to help you make an educated decision about whether to buy the 2019 Subaru Forester. We'll include safety and reliability ratings, engine specs and horsepower, fuel economy ratings and pricing. We'll also summarize what Autoblog's professional reviewers think of the Forester. Is the 2019 Subaru Forester safe? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration had yet to rate the 2019 Forester as of this publication, but it gave the 2018 version an overall five-star rating, its highest possible. It gave it four stars for frontal crash protection, five stars for side crashes and four stars in its rollover crash tests. Likewise, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety hasn't evaluated the 2019 model, but it has named the Forester a Top Safety Pick for 12 consecutive years going back to 2007. That's despite the 2018 Forester earning a "marginal" rating for passenger-side small front overlap crash protection, which replicates a crash impacting a vehicle's front corner at 40 miles per hour. It earned "good" ratings in every other crash-test metric, and a "superior" rating for front crash prevention, when equipped with the EyeSight driver assist technology. The latter comes standard on the 2019 model. We'll update this once ratings are updated, but we encourage you to visit the NHTSA and IIHS websites to review ratings on the specific vehicle you're researching. Is the 2019 Subaru Forester reliable? Subarus are generally known for their reliability and longevity, and indeed, the company cites IHS Markit data that shows 97 percent of all Foresters sold in the past 10 years are still on the road.

2020 Subaru WRX and WRX STI Series.White sneak in one more special edition

Wed, Nov 20 2019

LOS ANGELES — This generation of Subaru WRX and WRX STI is nearly done, and has celebrated with special versions here and back in the home country. But the company isn't finished with limited edition models yet, as proven by the 2020 Subaru WRX and WRX STI Series.White model (their punctuation, not ours). Just like past Series.Whatever models, the Series.White is distinguished on the outside by an exclusive Ceramic White paint scheme. It's accented by black mirror caps, black badging and matte bronze wheels. On the WRX, they're 18-inch wheels from Subaru, and the STI gets 19-inch BBS wheels. The paint color isn't the only perk, as each car comes with a selection of desirable options. The WRX basically gets the Premium trim's Performance Package, plus a few goodies. That means it gets Recaro seats, Brembo four-piston front calipers and two-piston rear calipers, LED adaptive headlights, and the sunroof is deleted. It also gets a special Bilstein suspension setup that hasn't been offered on the WRX before. The WRX STI gets a Bilstein suspension, too, as well as Brembo six-piston front calipers and two-piston rear calipers, Recaro seats, stiffer steering rack mounts and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires. Neither model gets any extra power, though. Subaru will only build 500 examples of each model, a total of 1,000 cars. The WRX Series.White has a price of $34,895, and the WRX STI costs $43,595. These special Subarus go on sale next year.
