I bought a new '81 Rabbit Diesel L. Probably the best car I ever had. Remember, it needs a timing belt every 60K miles like the M20. 44 MPG city; 51 MPG hwy actual.

I have 2 sets of BBS RS for it :D

I think you need to find an AWP motor to throw in there

[ebelements]

Dude you got a killer deal, if it runs. Those are going for as much as 3k in not much better condition than yours is.

Fix the maintenence issues, update what you can in the basi areas, clean it, and drive it. That car can only save you money. 45mpg+.

I have the motor , I will sell you it and the car it's in for a song!

If you plan on using round headlights, this would be the way I would go.







Absolutely stunning.

damn man u got a great deal. i am trying to get a 80 vw pickup diesel. i love these cars.

[T3rd Ferguson]

That's a pretty good deal, indeed. Mine was picked up on my 21st birthday for 500 dollars with 75k original miles on it. ZERO rust. the only spot of rust was a bit of surface that i just eliminated when i replaced my fenders for the roundie swap

Very cool stuff mang! I just helped a very good friend of mine get a 83' 2 door GTI(Not sure if there is even a 4 door GTI) Thing is a blast though, It was raced hard in the SCCA for a season so the 8v need's refreshing. Has fully polly suspension, Sways, And shocks/springs, Here are some pics.





It is a little rough but that's why they call it a project!

[T3rd Ferguson]

^That's how i got my car, it was a former SCCA car. now it's just dirty and low

[Miasma]

That's cool, We have a huge pile of parts ready to go on once my buddy gets done with some research study he is doing. He says he wants to dump 2k into it making it nicer since it is his daily. One thing I love about it right now is the idle, Has a super aggressive comp cam in it.
