So i have decided to punt my Mk1' Diesel projects and get this motorless Van on the road hopefully before my 40th Bday ( july 25th in case anyone wants to give me gifts )
First - 1982 Rabbit Diesel Pick up truck.
First impression is NOT good - but its from texas and has SOLID strut towers - which is where these FAIL - the diesel motor is locked up - it also a 5 speed car.
Broken window ( i have one ) caused interior to SWOLL up been sitting along time - someone picked up the truck with fork lift -so the rockers have dents from that happening but its NOT rusty - the only rust i found is around back window... on pass side. i paid $600 for this -

Second: 1981 Rabbit diesel 4 door - another Texas car - NO RUST - motor partially disassembled from an attemped / failed water pump install by previous owner - car is a very cool " patina " 4 speed diesel - again does not run - i paid $500 for it.

I have a turbo diesel motor from 1992 Golf - already removed - $1000 to go with one or both of these cars. Has a ford turbo installed - taped for boost gauge and pryometer gauge.
Ran and drove - ( i sold transmission )

Anyone down for some Mk1 fun? I know a guy in bellevue that has good fenders for the truck ( these are dented ) - i grabbed some decent door panels from the yard the other day and have some stuff in shop that can be negotiated.

Is that $1000 shipped? If not, what's the cost to ship to 58301?
Love the camper. Cool new toy!
