Some kind of replacement rear bumper bar by the looks of it, might be aluminium.
Fairly decent bullbar.
Looks to have an LPG system.
Looks like a brand spanking new alternator.
Owner seems to like repairing the car with sticky tape.
I'd go buy it if I had the room. Chances are it'd go for only a few hundred.

Hmmm... Looks to be in good nick! I can't see any rust around the windscreen in the pics - not that they're the greatest for looking for rust...
The rear bar is a cut down front bar with checker plate to cover the gaps. I've seen this done before - Suby87 had done it on his L's as well. Not bad for a bullbar that might have had a bent pipe on it...
You know you want it!
Cheers

I'd only buy it for an EJ conversion! It could be said that I'm converted...

That was my very first Subie.. it's what got me started. I brought it new and had the front and rear bars made buy Walliston Steel Products (they weren't cheap either) the rear is/was made to increase the towing capability. I used it to pull my camper around. I sold t to a guy named John who lived in Riverton and treasured that car as much as me
It did start to get rust in the usual windscreen area but John had it all taken out (dash out and all) not sure whether or not owned it before this accident as I haven't seen John in almost 10 years.
