1983 VW VOLKSWAGEN VOLKSWAGON CADDY RABBIT PICKUP WITH ORIGINAL CAMPER SHELL DIESEL 5 SPEED TRANSMISSION. $6000 OBO
4 cyl 1.6/97 Clean Title Original blue plates Registered through NOV 2020 Clean vehicle report.
In very good shape for its age, has been taken care of, don’t think it was ever wrecked. The guy before me garaged it and I’ve had it covered. I’ve had it about 8 years and it has 80606 on the odometer (odometer cable broke) and I’ve put about 20,000 on it since as it was not an only car and only used about once a month. From what I know I think it has been a California truck all it’s life. No wrecks. Paint is still nice with minor bumps here and there but all in all very good for original paint. When I got it, the bed had some rust spots so I painted over it with a rust inhibitor and rust proof paint. I can’t say it’s rust free because I see every little fleck but it is very near rust free. I bought a Mustang convertible once that was rusted so I’m nuts about rust.
REPLACED
the clutch
motor mounts
radiator
battery (very recently)
recent oil change
brake boosters
passenger seat belt (I have another for the driver’s side but it isn’t installed and both are not original)
Interior is good except for the drivers seat which is torn, some interior trim pieces on the posts broke, the ash tray broke off but I do have it.
Has a fancy schmancy radio (I don’t even know the name of it which I never really used (previous owner installed it)
Has some minor cracks in the dash (see photos)
A/C works
Runs great, transmission shifts well
Tires are good (I’ve replaced several) have warranty from Americas Tire
Have lots of parts to go with it
STUFF:
the drivers side door only unlocks and opens from the inside (I have a replacement door handle but haven’t gotten it in) – it locks good.
License plate light doesn’t work
Camper top windows leak when it rains but it has been kept covered.
Probably could stand some new windshield wipers
Have lots of extra parts to go along with it.
All in all it’s a good little truck, gets about 48 mpg, and I wouldn’t be getting rid of it but I really don’t have any use for it anymore and no place to keep it. Don’t think you could find a better one out there.
Call or text. (sorry didn’t realize the phone number was not showing in the reply section – craigslist error) Text if you want a walk-around. Serious inquiries only.
