That light bracket looks so good - excellent job!

Sounds like good progress, although somewhat still frustrating unearthing new issues/parts that still need sorting/replacing.

This weekends project had some urgency, going on a 4WD club trip next weekend. Only noticed 2 weeks ago when I stuck my head under there that the moustache bar was bent like a wet noodle :o Yesterday I started before 9AM, got the car back together after 6PM so it was a big day and I am very sore to...

Oh my...
Props to you for saving this Legacy!

We’re officially rolling! https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/800x600q70/924/DjPvrv.jpg ^ fuelling up in the next town enroute from home. Was hoping to make it further but didn’t want to push the fuel rag too far… https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/800x600q70/923/lJCO5n.jpg ^ Had to stop at Deni to ...

That bulbar looks soooooo good!
Cannot wait to see pics of it all back together with freshly painted bits.
Hope all goes well, with last couple of jobs so you can hit the road too...!

This (below image) all started out with a simple headunit and IHF radio install. Since I needed to remove the door cards I thought it a good time to finally install the central locking I got a number of years a go. On the list while I’m here is a front and rear dash cam - again, had that one for a ...

Rims are done!!! https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/800x600q70/922/C7CJrv.jpg Hoping to pick them up with tyres fitted tomorrow. And I’ll have to scrub those as they look like dirty rubbish near that fresh paint! I’m excited about this but am now worried that the rest of the suspension will look li...

Congrats on the milestone!

And that Buggy doesn't happen to belong to a certain Mr Cook does it?

Went for a little cruise today with a handful of other Subie guys. Of course they were all turbo'd and STI but they still appreciated the older gen. Managed to keep up no problems. Got the footage off the dashcam thinking it would show the fun pretty well but can't say I'm impressed at all with the...

Put in another good weekend of work to get these wicking beds done. Had to rush out to get more scoria before the landscaping yard closed and the wagon got pressed into service yet again :mrgreen: https://i.imgur.com/6Fh0Fv5.jpeg It's just so much cheaper getting it this way and not in 20L bags. Th...

Gday , everyone After putting in my power steering into my 92 Brumby. I got ready to go. Buttoned it all up, double checked all the hoses and bolts were tight and filled her up with new power steering fluid. Turn the car on. The pump is spinning and not making a fuss like the old one. But then I ch...

This is fantastic. You must be loving getting out n about again!

You need a PTO on Redback, so you can feed that bale out!
I can also relate to the general public waving or making a point to stop and say Gday, and then more often than not they reminisce about the Brumby they had 30yrs ago!

Win win with the hoist and easy fix! It must have been a relief when you discovered the snapped bracket.

Progress today, she moves! :razz: I made the last bracket (I think) for this conversion project being the engine stay rod bracket. Just for fun(?) and being that I started later in the evening, I made this one entirely without power tools except a cordless drill, and the welder of course. I tell ya...

I love that bracketry and the tiny little spal fan!

This! Love all the bracketry.
It would feel rewarding once you problem solve the mounting.

Cruising up to Subinats next year would be awesome. The date I’ve heard being thrown around for next year isn’t really convenient as it’s “mid term” for me but I’ll see what I can do. Class excursion...!? - other miscellaneous stuff like throttle cable, clutch cable mod, tail shaft, brake MC which ...

Here's todays effort, I terminated the engine plugs on the new harness. Set up on the kitchen table (of course :lol: ) with a cuppa and put on some good music https://i.imgur.com/hLkQe5m.jpg 3 hours later I had this: https://i.imgur.com/GHFbW75.jpg Along with a bit of eye strain and sore hand from ...
