Re: 89 Targa Brumby

I've got a Dual Range ej 5speed and rear diff, with 3.9 diff ratios. Thing is, I've found another 5 speed with the 3.9 ratio, but the rear diff is already gone: Does anyone know if any of the auto's or single range 5speed Subaru's have 3.9's so I can grab a matching diff for it?
Restoring/building this 89 Targa is sort of on hold, I'm patching up a cream one first: I bought two 'parts' brumbies many years ago: but it turns out, this cream one will scrub up ok! I've got some lower 'A" pillar rust repairs to do, I've pull the windscreen out, and blow me down: The windscreen channels are fantastic: The drivers side isn't even rusty. But the drain holes are blocked, and I suspect this has cause the A pillar rust issues: I'm guessing I'm going to need to pull the dash to patch the firewall properly? Anyone got a link to a walk through for dash removal? Most of the links are dead since the host move sadly.
And finally: It appears the original vinyl flooring shrinks: Has anyone ever bothered reusing/stretching it some how? Or we all just jumping to carpet these days?
