You are bidding on a 1984 VW Rabbit. It has the 1.6L NA diesel engine and gets amazing fuel economy. My wife and I saw an average of 50 mpg with it. The interior is about as flawless as a 1984 could be. It has the original interior including OEM rubber mats. No dashboard crack, or tears in the seats. A non-smoker has always driven the car. There is some exterior rust that is only surface. The undercarriage and strut pillars are rust free and in excellent shape. The suspension has also been replaced with raceland coilovers that are ride height adjustable and only have around 300 miles on them. In October of 2012 the car had an issue with the cylinder head and a valve broke and fell into the combustion chamber. Since, the engine has been completely rebuilt to OEM specifications from the bottom end up.

The engine rebuild includes:
Rods, pistons, piston rings, windage tray, water pump, injection pump replaced, timing belt, accessory belts, and all radiator hoses replaced. The head was completely rebuilt and professionally put together. It was professionally timed and runs well.

You need to know that I am selling it because my wife and I are having a baby and I need something with airbags and a bit safer. Also, there is a coolant leak from between the head and the block. This could be due to 2 things: a warped head, either from the machinist or from bolting it down; or a cracked block. I believe the leak to be caused by a possibly warped head and it should be checked for flatness upon receiving the vehicle. 

The AC was never recharged, so it either needs an R-12 recharge or a retrofit to R134a and it should run great.
Overall the car is great, it just needs a little attention under the hood to become completely road worthy once again. Take a look at the Rabbit below and see if you don't agree that it is a clean example of a classic VW. 

*Not pictured are 2 Fram air filters and complete air box housing as well as original OEM hubcaps, new ball joints, steering rack bushings, and tie rod ends. All come with the car to be installed!

South Korea to file criminal charges against VW exec

Wed, Jan 20 2016

South Korea has tossed out Volkswagen's recall plans and is preparing to level criminal charges over its handling of the diesel emissions catastrophe, The Wall Street Journal reports. "Recall plans the company submitted to us earlier this month were insufficient and lacked key information, and thus are unacceptable," the South Korean Ministry of Environment said in a statement obtained by the WSJ. A ministry official hinted at the possibility of criminal charges earlier this month if VW's recall plan wasn't satisfactory, the Yonhap News Agency reports, and now it looks like it will actually follow through. According to the WSJ, South Korea has already ordered VW to recall 125,000 vehicles and slapped the automaker with a $12.3 million fine – one of the many countries to do so – but if it follows through with criminal charges against the company or its employees, it'd be among the earliest to so. Other countries, including the United States, are still exploring the possibility of criminal charges. Charges would likely come against both Audi Volkswagen Korea and its managing director, Johannes Thammer. It's not clear what the actual charge would be, but the WSJ claims Thammer could be facing up to five years in prison and a fine of 30 million won (around $24,700 at today's rates). For its part, VW officials in South Korea maintains that it is "doing its utmost to resolve the emissions issue" and that it plans to "offer further explanation" to authorities regarding its proposal for an emissions and fuel mileage fix in that country.

Chevrolet is launching the bi-fuel 2016 Silverado 3500HD Chassis Cab. The work truck will now offer a version that will run on both gasoline and compressed natural gas (CNG).

1000-hp Mk1 VW Golf is terrifyingly cool

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

There are plenty of things to love about the Mk1 Volkswgen Golf. The machine's horsepower isn't one of them. From the factory, the little hatch cranked a breathy 112 horsepower from the most robust form of its 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine. Boba motoring, however, has taken that figure and multiplied it by a factor of nearly 10. If 1,000 horsepower sounds terrifying in a machine with a wheelbase of just 94.5 inches, it should. A massive Garrett GTX4202R turbo force-feeds the little mill through a tweaked 16-valve KR head. The crew calls the beast the 16Vampir, and we think that's fitting.
Of course, we'd wager you quit reading right about the time you set your eyes on that headline. Those of you who've stuck around this long can point yourselves below to see the maniacal creation in action. You won't be disappointed.
