1981 RABBIT "CADDY" PICKUP 40 PICTURES @ photobucket.com/81rabbitcaddy YOU ARE BIDDING ON MY 1981 VW RABBIT CADDY PICKUP. I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AND HAVE HAD A LOT OF WORK DONE TO IT HOWEVER I HAVE LOST INTEREST IN PUTTING ANYMORE TIME EFFORT AND MONEY INTO IT. WHEN I PURCHASED IT I WAS LOOKING FOR A NICE RUNNING CADDY WITH LITTLE TO NO RUST. THAT IS WHERE THIS CADDY STOOD OUT. IT HAD VERY LITTLE TO NO RUST ON THE BODY (THERE IS COMMON RUST AROUND THE FRONT SHOCKS). THIS CADDY STARTS UP AND RUNS NICELY AND ALL GEARS ARE THERE. LIKE MOST CADDYS OF THIS AGE THE A/C SYSTEM HAS BEEN REMOVED. IT IS LEAKING DIESEL AROUND FUEL INJECTORS/GLOW PLUGS. MOST OF THE WORK AND MONEY WAS SPENT ON THE BODY (STRAIGHTENING BODY PANELS, PAINT, SPRAY IN BED LINER, ETC.). I HAVE PUT A LOT OF MONEY INTO EXTERIOR BODY PARTS AS WELL (GRILL, HEADLIGHTS, TURN LIGHTS, OEM TAIL LIGHTS, AND DOOR HANDLES TO NAME A FEW). NEW INTERIOR PARTS INCLUDE GTI STEERING WHEEL, CARPET, TINT AND USED CADDY SEATS. THIS TRUCK IS WELL ON IT'S WAY TO BEING A NICE FINISHED PROJECT. IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE VERY NICE BUT NEEDS SOME MORE TLC. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT I AM NOT A MECHANIC AND HAVE TRIED TO DESCRIBE ALL OF THE FLAWS THAT ARE KNOWN TO ME. THERE MAY BE ISSUES WITH THIS CADDY THAT I AM NOT AWARE OF. THEREFORE I AM SELLING IT 100% AS-IS. PLEASE BID WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT YOU ARE BUYING AN UNFINISHED PROJECT THAT STILL NEEDS WORK.
