Back in the game(?)

[Mike621]

I say this with some giddiness and some reluctance, as 48 hours ago, I could not guess that I'd be the owner of another SVX today, or ever, really!

I received a call on Friday afternoon, from a SVX owner pleading with me to save his SVX from the scrapyard. What followed was a series of conversations that ended with me getting the keys and title yesterday morning.

The car:

1992 Liquid Silver LS
200+k miles

The skinny:

It started right up and runs well, but needs some work to be roadworthy once again. The obvious problems are a broken driveshaft joint, non-functioning power steering, faulty shift lock unit, and the airbag light is illuminated. The car has a recent new radiator, timing belt service, new alternator, new Subaru battery, and a spare set of OEM wheels, and for the price, it was very hard to pass up.

I'll likely fix the mechanical problems and drive it as a backup over the winter, and go from there. It will never be a show/garage queen like my Claret was, but I plan to enjoy it for a bit.

(Also, backwards wheels!)





(I have not taken photos of the car yet, myself, as it is not home yet.)
