TW> I wanted to have a Engine/Tranny rebuild done on the Wifes 1993 Subaru   
   TW> with 280,000 plus miles on it but she said NO WAY.  :-)  :-)   
      
   I'm really happy with the results.  I really like the car and I don't know of   
   any new car you can buy for $6000.  Not bad for 9 years and 150k miles.  The   
   engine would have gone much longer, but that aluminum head and lower manifold   
   rot was a real problem causing loss of antifreeze.   
      
   Over the years I have also done many front end related replacements.     
      
   Both axles, wheel bearings, and swaybar.  I just did a total brake job about a   
   month ago, too.   
      
   There is very little rust.  Just the area under the radiator, rear sway bar,   
   and control arms.  I used some anti-rust stuff on the metal area where the   
   radiator sits under the car.  Once it dried and I cleaned it up, I then   
   painted it.
