1981 VW RABBIT TRUCK
AKA
CADDY
NO RESERVE!!!!
I have up for auction my 1981 VW truck. It has the 1.6 diesel and a 4 speed manual transmission. Starts immediately and runs like a champ. Has new brakes, some lines and new emergency brake cables. New injectors, glow plugs and timing belt. Also a brand new battery. All the lights, heater, stereo, etc. work like they should... Doors open and shut with ease as well as the windows roll up and down like they should. Please look at the photos. You will see how incredibly well this truck has been taken care of it's whole entire life(35 years). I've never seen a 35 year old vehicle with this clean of an interior that is all original and never been restored. Not even a single crack in the dash!!
The exterior shines well for the most part considering it to be mostly original paint. The truck has never been repainted with the exception of a little touch up on the driver rear quarter. I honestly believe the original owner put the plywood in the bed and then put the cap on and it's been there ever since. I can't get the plywood out without taking off the cap and he put the cap on when it was new so...( I was told it never was taken off). Look at the bed, the ribs are near perfect!!! The cap is in excellent shape as well. Have the keys for it and it opens and closes right and locks as well.
From what I was told the original owner bought the truck and always garaged it. When he passed, his son drove it and then it was sold to the neighbor who garaged it as well. Then to me. You can tell it was loved and taken care of by the condition. 99% original, never jacked with or abused, no accidents.
Like I said the interior of this truck is in incredible shape, however it is 35 years old and not new. The drivers seat has a couple seam issues. The floors of the cab and bed are solid. The bottom corner edge of the doors have a little rust starting. Front windshield has a crack. I will help on my end if transportation is needed. Once paid it can sit for a few weeks to line up a shipper to get the best rate.
Any questions please ask and thanks for looking at my ad.
