Title: FS 1981 Caddy rolling shell $800, Lodon Ontario Canada
Post by: benny_terry 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
519-488-6329

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.

Truck looks good in the pictures guys. I'd like ot go get it, but my wife laid down the law. She doesn' tlike them, and poined out I have way too many unfinished projects now that I don't have time for. She's right! :D

Looks like a good buy for someone..........

Sorry folks, I have a .mac account, and apparently the picture hosting is not compatible with this server.  Here are some links to pictures.

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!

Ok, $800? Anyone?  I've seen a lot worse for a lot more.  Need to move tomorrow.

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

Have you posted on Samba and the horetex?
