I got my SVX!

And boy is it a piece of crap....

It needs a new windshield, a new radiator, a new oil pump, the door lock sticks badly and the driver's rear quarter window doesn't go down. I got locked in it because of the sticky lock when I got home........

......and I couldn't be happier

If you need parts locally, strictly subaru sold me a bunch of good stuff, he has a junkyard in BC. Congrats on the SVX, you'll have to bring it to meets when it's feeling better.

Hey, if your transmission isn't grumpy and your wheel bearings don't whine, you really do have reason to be happy.

Well, in all honesty, the car would most likely make it there and back, but it's more of a time issue then anything else. I live in Lynden, so just getting to Monroe is like a 2 and a half hour drive, let alone the hour to the mountains and whatever else happens.

Noted.

I've whittled my "mod" list down to the passenger window switch, rear washer, and antenna mast. Here's hoping (dreaming?) that'll hold her for awhile.

Good luck.
