1981 VW Rabbit pickup, absolutely immaculate.  No rust, no accidents.  It had a Rabbit 5 speed manual conversion, so you can fly down the highway at 70 or 80 mph without any problems. People are amazed to see how easily it overpasses other modern vehicles on the highway. 

  The motor was trasplanted from a 1991 VW Jetta that was completely overhauled in 2011.  It runs on diesel or biodiesel, yes this puppy runs all day and night on biodiesel!  A 10 gallon aluminum biodiesel tank installed in bed as seen on pictures.  Clutch, transmission shaft seal, axle seals, and transmission oil were all replaced in April 2013. Transmission fluid was replaced with full synthetic.  Front struts were replaced in May 2013. Front bumper has tow bar attachment and tow bar is included in this sell.  It was just freshly painted and sprayed on bed liner was applied a week ago.  

It is running strong and ready to go wherever you'd like.  It's makes about 50mpg on either diesel or biodiesel.

the odometer does not work, so actual miles on odometer are not accurate, but speedometer works flawlessly. 

I'm listing this vehicle for my dad, since he's getting ready for retirement.  My dad manufactures his own biodiesel from used cooking oil and the cost to produce per gallon is around 54cents a gallon.

My dad is also available to install a biodiesel production system for you if you are so inclined.  You can message me for pricing.

Vehicle is also for sale locally thus we reserve the right to end auction early. 

If you have any questions please feel free to send me a message thru E-bay.

thank you

Brazil contemplates safety exemption for VW Kombi as it goes out of production today [w/poll]

Tue, 31 Dec 2013

Brazil: the country of carnivals, indescribable beauty adjacent to abject poverty, Ayrton Senna and old Volkswagen models. Only they're not old - they're new, they're just based on old designs. The original Beetle continued production there long after it had been phased out elsewhere, but the original Kombi van has lasted much longer. That ends today, however, with the iconic VW Microbus ambling out of production on the last day of 2013.
VW kept making the van in Brazil with the original air-cooled 1.2-liter boxer four until 2005, after which the original design was updated with a 1.4-liter water-cooled engine. Today, however, it ultimately falls prey to safety regulations that mandate that all vehicles - no matter how old their design - need to have airbags and ABS, forcing Volkswagen do Brasil to cease production of the Microbus after a 56-year production run. But the latest word is that the Kombi (as it's presently known) could get a stay of execution - or at least a resurrection in short order.
According to reports, the Brazilian government is looking into granting the Type 2 Microbus an exemption from said safety regulations, reasoning that the van was designed long before the advent of airbags and ABS. If the measure goes through, the Kombi Last Edition (pictured above) could prove not to be the last at all. So what do you think, should the Microbus get an exemption from Brazilian safety regulations for nostalgia's sake? Vote in our poll below, then have your say in Comments.

Volkswagen Golf Wagon leaked ahead of official unveiling

Sat, 02 Mar 2013

Wagons ho! These three images of the upcoming Volkswagen Golf Wagon have leaked online ahead of the car's official debut, which may very well be at the Geneva Motor Show. Looking over the photos doesn't really bring any surprises - after all, this is a VW Golf with a wagon rear end grafted on, or basically what we expect next Jetta SportWagen will be.
We can only share these three images at this time, but fret not, folks. There's little doubt that all the details and images will be flowing from Volkswagen in short order. In the meantime, click on the images above to view them in high resolution.

That said, there were other important reveals like the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport and the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek.
