More Details & Pictures

Regrettably I have to sell my MK1 Caddy, as I am moving out of state.

The car has a storied life and has been cared for meticulously for 25 years.

Motor is a 1990 Jetta 1.8L paired to a 5 spd manual. Done at Parr Subaru/VW.

Clean title

249,500 miles listed on the odometer, but I assume the chassis has 208k. I have a receipt showing the 2nd owner swapping in a cluster jumping from 73k to to 114k miles in 1993.
