I am the 2nd owner of this Subaru Brat. I purchased it in 1985 with approx. 30K miles and put the extra 61K miles on it over 26 years. It is a great running vehicle and fun to drive. We just haven't used it much the last 15 years. Engine and drive train is in great condition. Runs almost perfect. Tires are very good (I would call them an 8 out of 10). The 4WD works but the button to engage it does not stick to the on position like it should when you push it. If you hold the button, it works fine. It is a 3 speed automatic that in my opinion wasn't really designed for the 65 mph speed limit change in the 90's. It runs fine at 65 but you're running about 4000 RPM (redline 5500) Body and paint.......Has some minor dents and scratches but not bad for a 28 year old vehicle. You can see some of the dents in the photos (like on tailgate and front of hood). Most are small like a tiny door ding. The dent on the tailgate is by far the worst. Part of rear taillight is broken. The trim is also missing from the top of the tailgate. Has not ran much in harsh conditions therefore frame and body have very little rust. Rear seats were removed and I don't have them. We do have a topper for it that you can have if you want it. It was painted to match but the paint on it is not very good shape. Interior......Due to lack of garage space it was left outside for a few years. This has caused the dash to crack as seen in photos. A/C vents have become brittle and have broken louvers. A/C still works good. Seats are good shape. Driver's seat has had the leather redone but the cloth was reused and is showing some wear, but really not bad. Windshield has a few rock chips but no cracks. All other glass is good. Removable T-tops are in good shape. All instrumentation and gauges work. If I remember right, the tach will stick for awhile when the vehicle is cold (below 25 F) but starts working after you get some heat going." Vehicle is sold "as is" with no warranty.
