FS 1981 Caddy rolling shell $800, Lodon Ontario Canada
« on: October 11, 2008, 01:54:01 pm »
Clean rolling shell, has a bunch of parts in the bed.  Virtually no rust.  Purchased from someone who completely disassembled it in prep for paint, but never painted it.  Was a diesel, missing the engine.  I was going to drop a 1.9td into it (very simple).
Also missing the following
front windshield
front fenders (was changing to single round headlights - cabby style)
seats
Has a bit of rust on the pass. side shock tower (repaired), driver's side windshield bottom and behind driver's rear wheel (minimal)

Email me for pictures, truck is located in London, Ontario - a mere hour away from Port Huron, MI

Also, for those interested, can obtain a 1.9 with 275km for an extra $250

I bought it from a friend... so I have one, but I won't sell it unless the truck sells - otherwise I'll just bite the bullet and restore the thing.  Unfortunately I don't have the time right now.

Oh, also, thanks Patrick - I agree that it would be a great buy for the right person.  Ironically I am also selling because my wife laid down the law.  Currently renovating a 125 y/o house, and since we can't live in the truck, the house comes first!

C'mon, I can't believe that not one person wants a caddy?  I looked for a year before I bought this one.
