Post by: thegimpster on January 30, 2014, 08:27:02 am
I thought i would post this over here too for sale. Truck is awesome. has a libby pump on it. i had a somewhat of a build thread about it on here. ready to be a daily although i would put new front shocks on it. here is the craigslist ad with pics and more info. texting me is probably easiest for me.

...and maybe a stronger clutch. This thing puts out too much hp and torque for it.

I sold my other tdi caddy. The white PD one if anyone remembers. Might sell my tdi swapped b3 wagon and scirocco 1 too. I've got a lot of money tied up in stuff i don't use much and may start a new business venture that i'll need cash for.

It looks like a nice setup. If I may make a suggestion however. TMI sells interior seat covers. Fairly reasonable too. I'd venture to say that if you recovered the seats, cleaned up a few things, added some missing parts, etc., that truck would bring $7K+ on ebay come spring. You'd get another $1500-2K on an investment of only about $200-300. Once March hits and income checks come rolling in, people lose their sanity on things like this. It's got all the goodness (1983!!!, LX, by the gutter trim and badges), fun motor, inter-cooler, brakes, etc. Now it just needs the look.

Right,  I have all of that stuff. I have a complete black interior too I think.  I even have tan corrado leathers I could put in it. Ive debated doing the interior in it ive just had a lot of other stuff going on.
