After almost 5 years years of ownership, its time to say good bye to The
Van. Though not in concours condition, it is reliable, runs great, and can
do just about anything except beat an Outback up a mountain pass. FYI, I am
downsizing my auto collection, though I am considering a Quantum Syncro
Wagon (not an Outback) as a replacement for winter activities. If you are
interested, please contact me directly and I can answer questions or e-mail
photos.

Body:
Metallic tan with silver stripe
Some slight seam rust in typical places
Minor right rear body damage due to high speed blowout in '96 (tire whipped
the sheetmetal behind wheel well)
Otherwise, very straight

Drivetrain:
153k (engine rebuilt at 85k)
New water pump (11/99)
New driveline front u-joint, rf outer cv, rf upper ball joint (10/99)
New front rotors, calipers, pads and rear shoes (3/99)
New clutch (5/97)
Michelin MXT (fronts 75%, rears 40%)

Interior:
Tan cloth upolstery, no tears or stains
Tan carpets, worn but not ugly
Rear bench folds into a comfortable bed
AC needs charging
Rear heater works great
Kenwood cassette player (CD changer/controller capable) with removable face
