I particularly liked the line "With the doors removed, they could finally remove the engine"...
I actually don't mind the engine conversion - I'll bet it's a blast to drive. It is a '74, so at least they didn't bastardise an early car. I wasn't too keen on the rear wheel camber - it is way out. Also, if I was going without carpets I would have detailed the inside. It's not really my taste. I can't wait to read Russ' review!

I have not had time to watch it yet, but those grills on the front make me want to puke. And that camber is quite stupid. Incidentally I often wonder about all these Subaru conversions in different VW models. I work on a LOT of Subaru's, and they are well known to suffer head gasket failures and are notorious for leaking oil from said head gaskets. They don't Impreza me at all...

I feel like doing a 360 on this topic, but I realize that would Justy put us on the same path...

Now Don's started me off ion wanting a Subaru again. A van or pick up would be fine. Subaru must have been watching Volkswagen to come up with their designs, so it seems appropriate that they are dolling up the microvans as faux VWs in Japan. Perhaps you've seen a few over here, I love the ones that have fake rust and dare I say it..."patina?" Subaru also made the Rabbit scooter.

Careful. It would be a Saab story "95" pages long. |
