It’s been awhile. I don’t even know who most of you jerks are anymore.
But, I have a new Subaru in my life. So that warrants a post. Say hello to my salvage auction, clean titled, 2007 Outback.
It was supposed to only have front end damage, but, during unloading, one guy was hooking up a jump box and told the other guy to get in and put it in neutral to let it finish rolling off the truck. Well, guy number 2 leans in the door and puts it in neutral, doesn’t get fully in to be able to use the brake, with this being the result. The delivery guy said he’d take care of it, just let him know what it needs. The fender looks salvageable, but the door isn’t.
(Side note: you know you’ve probably spent too much time taking Subarus apart when it only takes a little over an hour to get to this point)
It needs about $1100ish in parts (not counting the door) and I’m probably just going to buy a full JDM front end conversion from Canada. Comes with everything I need, so it’ll be easy.

Damn dude, this is a post I wasn’t expecting to see today. Long time no see. How goes it otherwise?

An interesting rebuild - keep us informed.
And you don’t know who this jerk is? STEVE in fucking MANHATTAN. You got a name, you got a locale. So please ....

You might remember me, e30m3 from way back, now E90M3. The 2017 version of me actually has a job again.

Nice to meet you. You probably won’t see much of me. It’s seriously been over a year since I last posted here.

Will do. It’ll probably be a couple weeks before I have the money to order parts.
And next time I’m in fucking Manhattan, I’ll look you up.

Good to see you too. Things are going pretty well, currently working for myself, buying and reselling stuff. Just part time at the moment, as I’m also working on getting a lot of stuff done around the house that got put off due to family issues.
How are you doing?

Sounds like things are going pretty well.
I’m solid. Moved 3000 kilometres to start a new life a few months ago. Things are going pretty well so far.

Bummer about the door. It’s one of those things that seems to happen so fast and in slow motion it’s over and you can’t believe it just happened.

Yeah, I saw it about to happen and I just couldn’t get the warning out in time. Oh well. Shit happens.
