This week Todd finished up the work on the '99 Outback that he drove home from Grand Rapids in 2nd gear about a month ago. He removed the junk transmission from this car, removed a functioning transmission from another Subaru that is waiting in the wings to be flipped, and then successfully installed it into this car. A co-worker of Bryan Lepley's was waiting in the wings to purchase the car, and it went to its new home on Wednesday evening. Before it left, Todd took some photos of the finished product (although the vast majority of the work was done under the hood) and of course there are a few of Nathan in the mix too!
The finished product--all six gears are functional!
The Electra in her spot in the shop, patiently waiting for the day she'll be fully restored, and the next project car waiting in the wings after donating her transmission to the white Outback.
As seen in a video in a previous post, Nathan loves the Jeep. It's been parked outside while Todd was working on the Subaru, and every time he has the opportunity, N makes a beeline for the Jeep! He loves to point out every part of the snowplow, bumper, headlight, etc.
My sweet boy eating sticks.
Stones!
My car had to join in on the photo shoot--check out those two '99 Limiteds!

Looks like he's realizing the benefits of walking - keeps your hands free and gets you to the jeep!
