Just picked this up about a month ago. This is my new daily driver since the Subaru blew up.

How did you blow up a LGT?

How did you blow up a LGT?

The oil pump stopped working and in less than 2 miles from when my oil light came on and I limped it home it started knocking bad and smoking. I took it to a shop that only works in Subarus and they said the turbo may have been saved because I never went into boost but the engine was toast and needed a full rebuild.

 

They quoted me $4000 to fix but they were 16 weeks out from being able to work on it. They do one rebuild a week and had 15 ahead of me. I guess turbo Subarus have a bad habit of blowing after about 120k miles sometimes sooner. I spoke to another shop who could have rebuilt it right away by they quoted me $8000 and the dealership quoted $10000.

 

The original shop offered me $4000 for the car as is. So I took it. It was only worth about $8k even with the rebuilt engine so i said screw it and I sold it to them.

 

I really like my new car and I got a great deal on a much nicer, faster and lower mileage vehicle that should last me a while.

I really regret getting rid of this one. 97 LT with 4.3L, 2 wd, 5 speed, 4.10 gears. This is what it looked like when sold mid 2010.

Wow that was a clean truck, to bad it was a 4.3… Nothing wrong with it, just would be so much cooler if it were a 5.7…

Not much weight there. It could spin tires in 2nd. It would get over 20 mpg.

We drove to the Bloomington Gold Corvette Show in Indianapolis this weekend. About 1100 miles round trip, great weekend! Mine was one of 8,750 Vettes at the show. :drool:
