Went to take the MY for a drive and noticed tell tale CV grease on the front driver side firewall. Didn't have a new boxed set of boots so pulled new boots of a front drive shaft I had pulled part and refitted new boots to not too long ago. This shaft clicked straight away so it was pulled back out ...

dfoyl What is this carby off ? I don't see it as looking like mine (1982 EA81) Following is the course of action I have taken with my solenoid which has bought me some time. Firstly, I cleaned up the end of my solenoid to expose as much of the wire as possible. http://ausubaru.com.au/picture.php?alb...

EA81 Carby (manual choke) anti run on solenoid
The wire on my EA81 carby (Hitachi ?) anti run on solenoid has finally given up and broken off about 3mm from right down inside the solenoid.
I hope to be able to get one more go at soldering the wire back on but this may or may not work.
Any idea on where to get a new one ?

Anyone know what sort of rims these are, may be 14's.
Love the bloke on the front end trying to bring it back down to earth.

82 Subaru Leone Touringwagon Leather Version
An import I guess.
My 82 Touring wagon doesn't have the headlight washers, electric mirrors, joystick fader for the stereo and the instrument cluster is different (of course no leather either).

I am not in SA either but life does take over and things go in cycles. I check in from time to time as a lot of people do. In reading these posts I realise I haven't had my wagon out for about 3 weeks so if anything is achieved from reading this is I will get it started and out over the weekend. I t...

This is the brand I am looking for. Metrit I have had the right universal bonnet stone guard on an 85 model series 3 Nissan Bluebird back in the 80's and the same was on my MY when I first bought it. Not finding much on the web though and this one while being the right brand is too short. http://www...

Mental blank on plastics makers from the 80's
I am racking my brain to remember the manufacturer of plastics like bonnet and headlight protectors from the 80's. I seem to recall their symbol was 2 black flags back to back sitting at an angle. Anyone remember their name, it wasn't Aunger, trying to recall as I think this was the mob who made the...

Looks good mate. Now to get stuck into all that prep work! Cheers Bennie Thanks Bennie I am resisting the urge to take to the newly painted section with cutting compound. Have to use will power for at least a week (especially in this weather), it needs to harden properly. If it polishes up well eve...

OK, this may not be exciting to anyone else but it certainly is to me. Yesterday, I cut back the paint on part of the panel that goes across the front of the car, below the windscreen and around the wiper arms. A year or so ago I painted this panel off the car with the mixed, original No 15 silver m...

You could try a silver hammertone, i have used it with a paint brush works fine and has the advantage of being very strong, only problem is it ends up with a sheen like galvanised iron, and takes a few days to dry properly, there may be variety that is a plain silver, try rustoleum and see what the...

Bennie I am just looking for options to metallic and needing a clear top coat. From my experience with painting the roof I find the whole metallic/top coat spray painting process difficult. It became obvious I would not be in a position to be able to spray the whole car at the same time. Space to do...

Bantum I might follow up with this Honda silver, even just get a hold of a spray can worth. So far the car still has all of its original 34 year old No 15 Silver paint excepting for the roof. I painted this some time ago when I removed the screwed on luggage carrier racks which had attracted rust un...

This is an example of one of the silver paints within the Dupli-color catalogue. http://ausubaru.com.au/picture.php?albumid=19&pictureid=2457 There are a total of (10) colors for a variety of car makes that are silver and do not have the Clear coat ticked.
