FS/FEELER: 1980 VW Caddy

Post by Mikewire »

Guys, I have decided I need to sell my Caddy. :tear: I don't want to, and I know I will regret it, but it's time to move it on. It's just not getting used enough, and I think it would make someone else a very good driver and/or project. Let me know if any of you are interested and we can talk price (PM me), otherwise it's going to go on VWVortex.

So the details are:

1980 (one year only, square lights) 1.8 JH gas (hydro lifters) 4 speed manual transmission. Engine came out of a Scirocco from what I was told. It's basically stock, I have put in a lot of new parts and a ton of work to get it road worthy, including:

Water pump
Heater core
Radiator (Scirocco, no reservoir)
Coolant (obviously)
Thermostat
Fuel pump
Brake flush
New front glass and seal
Attempted new headliner :\
OEM Bed rails
MKIII GT wheels and newish tires w/ good rubber
Small OEM duckbill
Dash mat
Various seals and pieces...

I also have a 5 speed FF diesel transmission that I would sell with it for an additional price.

My thread is here: viewtopic.php?f=79&t=3117 and it has all the details and some info on my journey to getting it back on the road from sitting in in a backyard for 10 years. The outside is obviously in need of paint, or leave it be as a patina and neutralize the rust. There IS rust, but not a lot of rust holes, the strut towers are pretty clean - there is one large hole by the fuel filter caused by years of fuel dripping from the banjo bolt. Everything else as far as I can see is solid, including the bed, and most is surface rust.

These are the pictures I have for now, if I have interest, I will get others that are more detailed for those that may not be able to come and look at it in person:

I might be interested we need to talk one of these days. Things have happened and I'm thinking about selling the Passat. I'd love to have it as a replacement.
