located north of Spokane Washington


i have the title in prosses of coming so i have come to the discussion that i need to down size my car collection, more cars to come for sale

what you get

original window sticker, owners manuel, and misc other items

1980 rabbit 4 door
181k on the body
original paint and interior alpine white on blue (i will remove the graphics on request)
some rips in the seats and cracked dash.
everything on this car works. including all the lights
hella H4's up front
1.5 diesel starts and runs great, very quit and smooth
yellow pump
4 speed manual transmission
rolling on old school enkie mesh wheels with decent tires
drives great
good heater
suspension is tight and quit
brakes work great no pulling


super solid car, never wrecked!

whats new
glow plugs
controller
radiator
misc switches
coolant

i was in contact with Gary tucker on Wednesday last week, he had owned the car sense it was only a few years old and had 30k on it
he told me that
he sold the car in late 99'
the person he sold it to put about 200 miles on it before he couldn't make it run
motor was rebuilt about 80k ago
transmission was replaced 20k ago ( if i was to keep it i would swap it to a 5 speed)
injector pump was rebuilt 50k ago


Slam this car or use it as a driver

$3000 obo, might take trade for a mk2 gli, or mk3 glx, might even go for another mk2 coupe if its nice ;)
or if anyone would like to part with there mk4 1.8t 5 speed i would throw in my mk1 coupe diesel :banghead:

IM me or post your question on here
