Vehicle Detail
Up for sale is my 1982 Volkswagen Rabbit Convertible. I bought the car as an unfinished restoration project from a local guy with the intent of keeping it as part of my small VW collection, but during the time it took me to complete this car I have decided that what I really need is another motorcycle, not another Rabbit. So it is time to let this little car go... I would consider interesting trades, especially if you have a Kawasaki KLR 650 Since completing it I have put less than 100 miles on it. Passed smog a couple of weeks ago The entire car was stripped down and re-sprayed the factory color inside and out. Floors, trunk, engine bay, everything. Undercarriage (including wheel wells) undercoated New front brake rotors, pads, and calipers New rear brake drums, shoes, and wheel cylinders New brake lines New master cylinder New fuel filter New control arm bushings New tie rods New tie rod ends New steering rack boots New steering rack bushings New ball joints New wheel bearings New struts New bump stops New radiator New distributor cap and rotor New spark plug wires New spark plugs New clutch New flywheel New clutch cable New catalytic converter New flex pipe New OEM muffler New throttle cable Tons of miscellaneous new parts that I can’t remember All new shifter linkages Tons of parts were powdercoated gloss black during the restoration, including the fan shroud, valve cover, timing belt cover, control arms, motor mount brackets, shift linkage parts, convertible top latches, windshield wiper arms, and probably some other parts that I have forgotten. Lots of miscellaneous brackets zinc plated Wheels powdercoated original metal flake silver New Michelin tires with less than 100 miles on them Aligned at Five Points Tire in Redwood City last week Dynamat throughout New Pioneer CD player with iPod input and removable face plate Dashboard has is not cracked or warped at all Convertible top in good shape, no cracks, holes, or tears. All gauges are functional. Oil pressure, oil temperature, voltage, tachometer, speedometer, odometer, and even the trip odometer. All lights work, marker lights, turn signals, brake, reverse, high beams and low beams. If you are a serious buyer, I would be happy to talk to you over the phone or answer any questions you might have via email, and of course you are welcome to come out and see/drive the car.
