      Because i like to restore old cars when i have time, i know a lot of flippers, they have good connections in the car world and are a good group to get buddy buddy with when you need parts. Here's the rub. The most successful flippers... don't take risks. Yup. All those channels on YT, where they talk about "taking risks and flipping wonders" that's horsebutt. One of the guys i know in france lives well off his work and looks like a wrench monkey on weekdays but a noble on weekends. He has never sold a single "special" car in his life. Every time i've visited his shop, he has the most boring and most common cars you see. It's all about the volume, not the "value".

    Honestly boys. This is the kind of content I'm here for. No matter how much profit or cost there is. It's just absolutely epic to see something that's relatively clapped like that go into the shop a little leaky. Transform and come out. In a condition, with a few mods, and much cleaner in a way that absolutely suits a daily for car people like us. That transformation I think is what brings this community together. Whether us our car, someone else's car,a car on TV even. It's very motivating to go out and work on my own car even.

    Thank you for saving this lovely wagon from the scrap!
    $4,900 is a good price, too, considering all the work you've done on it! - I got my Outback of the same generation for under AU$3000. It's a higher spec than this and is in great mechanical condition for the age and k's, but it's a bit ragged looking and has had some dodgy repair work done to it. The important thing though is that it runs great and while it did need an interior cleaning, it wasn't nearly gross as most used Subarus I see. I absolutely love it and I'm definitely going to keep it on the road as long as I can.

Not only for what you're doing to save a vehicle from recycling, but more so , bringing something back that is something that is safer and cheaper(?) for other owners/drivers. With all due respect too, l most definitely like the "Wheeler Dealer" aspect of what you paid, the repair cost and other stuff versus the final sale price and this helps out too with future mechanical charges.

    Hang painter's tarps (thin mil plastic sheets) from the ceiling around the car. Tape the plastic to a small fan on the floor pointing in on one side and one pointing out on the other. Now you've got a paint booth. $15-20 each for the fan, $5 for the amount of tape you'll use, and $30 for plastic.

    Keep them coming boys!
    Partly from my father, and probably partly from Marty, I have turned into a huge wagon nerd. I own an Outback myself, in my family we have had... a bunch of different wagons/SUVs.
    Most were American models, but for me personally I have also added Subaru to my interest "bucket" and in my rotation.
    This one turned out great, I especially like the color.
    Now that you have the spray gun, maybe time to get some kind of pop-up spray booth for the SuperGarage?
    It seems like you got this spray gun with more of this series in mind, and of course it can be used for any project, and is a good investment.

    Picked it up for $5000 with a nasty clunk which was caused by a blown centre diff. Picked up a reconditioned centre diff from Peter at Corgiwerx, gave it a full timing belt service with new water pump, cam seals and crank seal. Daily drove it for a few months and then sold it for just under $10,000.

Figured the piston slap would have sent it to scrap yard after a couple years. But I’m still driving it today as my daily beater!

    The risk too is cracking a windshield or breaking the power steering and now you lost 600$ on top of 2 days work. Good to see two videos, one of each side of the coin.

    This is the kind of content that got me hooked 14+ years ago, we were just missing Moog and the workspace has improved drastically. If I'm honest I had been beginning to become less and less excited for MCM videos (specials excluded-they are MINT) last year or so. The builds and projects were becoming resource heavy and I couldn't relate. Although I still watch because it's like catching up with old mates and it's awesome to see how far you two have come. This return to a content matter more like OG MCM is very welcome by me and I'm sure a very fair amount of fans.

    Nice one Marty! This is what many car guys dream about. Buying a cheap car with potential and just making it work on a budget. Although you are not making much money with this, Its great inspiration for people who want something on a low budget! And having a fun time with your mates!

    3rd gen Subaru Legacy/Liberty are amazing and reliable cars.
    I managed to get one for free, and fixed it up for cheap. It only needed new parking bulbs, adjustments to the headlights, a new washer tank and a small panel fix. That made it fully roadworthy. I probably spent around 500 NOK (around $50 US) in parts, and another 2000 NOK (around $200) for the roadworthiness tests, as well as a set of new summer tires for it (4000 NOK).
    I sold it for 15,000 NOK (roughly $1500), so I made a nice profit on it.
    It became someone's first car, and it was not a bad choice. The only downside is that Subaru engines are known to eat a lot of gasoline, and with gas being expensive over here, well you know how that goes. Fortunately the new owner does not need to drive all that much.
