Show us your Non-Subaru!

Great thread! I'll have to scan some pics of my RX3 turbo...

Here's a few of my Falcon in the Flinders Ranges:



My brother's Honda at the Pinnacles"
 
My VW Buggy

I have this buggy for more then 25 years now. Build it together with my dad who past a way about 15 years ago. After his dead i couldn't touch it for quite some time. It had to much memories of my dad. It had several engines from a VW beetle 1300 to a Ford 2.8 V6.
I rebuild it after i had a serious motorcross accident where i broke my back and was paralyzed for several months. I will never sell it, it's simply to important for me.

specs:
1970 pan converted to IRS suspension, non shortened, 6 point rollcage
engine 2.0 aircooled boxer from a vanagon, other camshaft tuned for power at low RPM, porsche 914 heads, 2x 40mm webercarbs. 105hp 4500rpm at the rearwheels 173Newton at 1900 rpm.
weight 640kilo

drives like a maniac, gives a bit of motorbike feeling

If I did know then what i know now i would have used a suby engine instead of building that aircooled one. This engine is so pigheaded that it runs super on day 1 and rubish on day 2 without touching it. I blame the weber carbs for it. Maybe some day i gonna mount a suby turbo in it :cool:

^ Love your Tonka Toy "creeper", FS.

It'd frighten the living bejasus out of our cats, I suspect ... :rotfl:.

Awesome cars guys!

Heres my Fairlane as it mostly currently is, i have polished up the bullbar since these shots :)











The restoration is slowly getting there.
 
Cool Kia! Nice to see something different. How does it go offroad?

The Chevette is awesome too. Be a lightweight weapon!
 
Todays adventures! My 1989 Ford Fairmont Ghia wagon with factory lsd, factory Falcon XH Outback ute wheels and tyres and a small strut top/leaf spring lift.
And we had one mental and epic l series with us too!










 
Fantastic! Now there is a real "roofbox" :iconwink:
 
Before the Subaru- there was the Ford. A genuine 1972 XA GT Falcon hardtop. On the Across Australia trips, I'd swap the genuine GT front end over for standard Falcon panels.



 
A video of the car on one of the trips.

It is very suprising. One of the hands down most reliable vehicles I've owned. And definitely the most comfortable.
