I'm fortunate to live close to the ACD museum and NATMUS.

I've been to the ACD Museum, but I had no idea the NATMUS existed. poo poo, I need to make another trip.

As said above, a fixed HG quadruples the value so don't undercut yourself. Even with other repairable issues. There's guys in this thread that can knock out a Subaru HG in a day.

Anyone located near eastern PA? I have a HG that needs to be done and if I do it it will be a two week long ordeal. I would rather pay a goon it done in a day.

Heh, it's in the back of the parking lot about 200 feet away. Not hard to miss. It's not glorious. Basically an old factory that has a crap load of cars and other interesting things. Sort of a shame it doesn't get more love.

One of the coolest things about the ACD museum is that this was a dealer showroom in the '20s and '30s and their design center. A time capsule. If you are driving through on the tollway while trying to get through Indiana as fast as possible (I don't blame you), take half a day and drive south to visit.

If it's not a giant bucket of rust $500 should be a decent asking price. Subaru's tend to hold their value and if the only thing really wrong with it is head gaskets that's only a few hundred bucks and an afternoon to fix if you've got the knowledge and tools handy.

I sold the car for $600 :cool:

I had about five people reach out within fifteen minutes of it being on Craigslist for $700.

hosed head gasket, crack in windshield, CV boot issues. 125k miles. I'm happy.

Around the same time, my customers started to annoy me; I felt an instant dislike for at least one out of every three people who entered my business. I lost my patience. Thinking I was actually losing my mind, off to the doctor I went. The answer—an anti- anxiety drug of some sort. This helped a bit cause now I was high on drugs, covering up what was really ailing me. However, relief was only temporary.
On my way to an out of town trade show with my girlfriend, I experienced another unexplained incident. I started to feel tense and anxious for some reason. I grabbed for a pill only to realize I had left them at home. This caused me more anxiety and anger. How was I going to manage this trip without my pills? I started punching the steering wheel in a rage as now I would have to turn around; I’d be late for the tradeshow, so in my unstable state, I just stayed home. Being a very strong willed person, I flushed the pills down the toilet, thinking they were the cause. They were not going to be my first addiction.

The epilogue for that story is he went into his backyard, stuffed a bunch of Mazda drivetrain parts into a 300, hung a Charger front end, ordered a turbo kit, etc.

I had a teacher in high school who was like this. All the desks were crammed against the back wall while she taught up in the front, and she also expected a bunch of teenagers largely preoccupied with plans to get laid, to come in and not wash or use deodorants or body sprays or perfumes. Why are you teaching?
