1981 Volkswagen Rabbit PICKUP TRUCK. Condition is Used. sold as is truck located in KONA HAWAII, you need to pick up or pay for delivery to west coast for $920 via pasha hawaii, i will drive truck to HILO and drop off to ship covered to one of their CA PORTS...YOU PAY SHIPPING! I WILL DELIVERi'll type to you all about it; and tell ya what ever you want to know prior to sale, main things: the price is firm, it's sold as is and dont really have time to be your tech support, and it has rust....
a BRAND NEW 1.9 L non turbo (AAZ engine code) was put in by Bear VW Hilo some 5 years ago(revise, sorry as i reflect i think it was in the back end of 2013-14) maybe 6 -7 year old max... ticker stopped at 145--, so i can only estimate new engine milage to be 20-30k miles on it, starts right up every time, 5 speed manual, just a basic truck perfect for pick up mulch or tripping around island economically, however with rust there is some leakage around window, i do keep it covered and not much rain here so it does not come with frogs or anything, there's paint peeling clear coat pau bla bla bla, i've treated and covered it with things done a lil fiberglass in the bed, but all in all it's still there, if you wanted a project this is a good one, but it could be a driver too; only issue for a new owner would be front shocks, theyre only about 30 bucks, but the whole kit with springs and things is 300.....if you go over speed bumps too fast....well look it needs new shocks ok....but if you drive it like me you can get away with it.....havent even looked at interior, seats have always been covered with wet akole i bet underneath is like new, carpet, ok, headliner fine...saftey current....i've got i bet at least another 1k in parts for ya that i'll ship in a flat rate....new michellin tires within the past year, it sounded to me like it had a bad injector and started to smell like a diesel for a moment, i've tested them by loosening fuel lines, and theyre all are ok.....but i've got extra ones anyways if one goes out or you can isolate which one is making the sound by testing according to book(which i've also got), at this time it runs and sounds perfect really i reckon with no more than 30k on the new engine it's right in a sweet spot of sorts ....like i said it starts right up but starter sounded a little weird one day and starter wasnt the original so i've got a brand new bosch one(300) on standby too....i've got injector sockets, dinks and dongs....cant remember all the stuff but living at the beach without garage, it's time to let this bugga go before it composts...one guy said cover in coconut oil....dont feel like doing that(but probably a good idea)....other imoportant thing is i would really like to sell it, so please have $ readyand come and get it, or align shipment ASAP, i'll drive you around in it perfectly as i can.....then you can drive it and hopefully we can make a deal...oh just had some new clutch linkage bushings put in so it shifts pretty darn good....and i've got extra bushings too.....so takes a specific sorta person to pick this one up, would fix most anything on it with common sense email connect in with any ?'s, very busy so know this, and vw diesels and such and what your looking at here, it's a fair deal and again the price is firm 2000 due within 48 hours the remainder within a week, and i would like to ship it out ASAP truck for sale locally so may end before one week if it sells. aloha
ps...bought this truck on ebay for 7250, i put easily that in it over the years, with over 6k on new engine here in hawaii through Bear VW, so totaling over 15k, really; but it's still a rust bucket that needs a new friend...
