1980 Vw Rabbit Caddy Pickup Truck 1.8l Gasoline Automatic on 2040-cars
Clarksville, Tennessee, United States

1980 VW Rabbit Pick-up (Caddy) 1.8L 3 Speed Automatic This is being re-listed as the winning bidder had a family emergency (Verified), so was let off the hook after fixing me up with my eBay fees. The camper top is no longer for sale with the auction. I am keeping it for my other truck. This is a pretty solid truck. I came to own it through various trades. The strut towers, underside, are not rusted. The bed is solid and has been coated. The windshield is cracked. The paint is an amateur job and there are dings and some minor surface rust here and there. (See pictures). The 1.8 L engine runs good. The truck originally came with a 1.5 L engine that was physically the same on the outside as the 1.8L that is in there now. The transmission shifts like it is suppose to with the only problem being that the plastic speedo drive gear spins freely on the shaft. There is an access plate that can be removed to repair this issue without removing the transmission. Long story short the speedometer does not work. The front brake pads and rear shoes have been replaced. The front wheel bearings and tie rod assemblies have been replaced, and the rear wheel bearings have been cleaned and serviced as well. The tires are pretty good. Might need balancing. The truck has factory A/C and it works. Sort of. I pulled a vacuum on it, then serviced it with R134A refrigerant, and ran it for a while and it gets cold. High side pressure was and 275-300 psi, and low side was around 30 psi. I then removed the refrigerant to replace the receiver drier and never got around to it. I will throw in the new drier with the sale and gas the refrigerant back up for the winning bidder if that person wants. Over all this is a pretty nice little truck for it's age. I have owned several of these and currently have one that I drive which is a turbo diesel. This one is the only automatic I have ever seen, and we use to work on a lot of them. Please ask any additional questions you may have prior to bidding. The winning bidder is responsible for pick up and I will help load either for the winning bidder or any shipper the winning bidder hires to pick it up. Will not ship. Local pick up is fine. I wouldn't be afraid to drive just about anywhere.
This truck is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end this auction early bids or not. Well, Thanks for looking, and good luck.

Recharge Wrap-up: Eigg's renewable energy grid, Wulin City Car EV looks like i3
Fri, Sep 12 2014Scotland's Isle of Eigg's electrical grid relies solely on wind, hydro and solar power. It's the first grid of its kind after switching to renewable energy from noisy, unreliable diesel generators. Scotland's renewable resources are fodder for supporters of independence form the UK, and Eigg is a perfect example of that potential. Besides being a responsible community, it also seems like a lovely place to visit. Read more at Reuters. London Mayor Boris Johnson is calling for incentives for diesel vehicle scrapping. The goal is to improve London's air quality, encourage the purchase of clean vehicles and offset the inconvenience of charging diesel cars to enter the city's proposed Ultra Low Emissions Zone. Read more at Green Car Congress or in the press release below. BMW, Nissan, Renault and Volkswagen are teaming up to create a better EV charging infrastructure in the UK and Ireland. As part of the Trans-European Transport Network (T-ENT) program, the group aims to create extended EV-friendly roadways with the UK Rapid Charge Network, connecting major cities on the islands. Plans for the network include 70 rapid chargers along 684 miles of road. The four manufacturers also want to extend the project to mainland Europe to encourage the adoption of EVs. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Wuling is working on an EV, called City Car, which liberally takes visual cues from the BMW i3. The City Car EV concept is slated to make its debut in November at the Guangzhou Auto Show, while a production version could make its way onto Chinese roads next year. We might have to wait until the debut to know what powers the City Car, as those details haven't been released yet. General Motors is a 43-percent stakeholder in Wuling.

Now customers will be able to use either app to pay in any of the city's 20,000 green and yellow taxis. There's no need for separate apps for separate cabs, and no need for drivers to install any new equipment. The groups behind the apps hope to expand this functionality to other cities across the country. Read more in the press release below.
Volkswagen sketches Geneva-bound concept
Wed, Feb 25 2015Volkswagen has released a pair of sketches that give us our first official glimpse at the company's new concept car, set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show next week. Details are slim – the car doesn't even have a name yet – but we do have some facts about VW's swoopy new showcar. First off, it's a sedan – well, "four-door coupe" – but is said to have a hatchback configuration. Autoblog has also learned that the car will be powered by a hybrid powertrain, using a TSI gasoline engine paired with two electric motors, and uses an all-wheel-drive configuration that's likely similar to that in the recently unveiled Cross Coupe GTE concept. Volkswagen says this showcar uses a new, progressive design language for the brand. And while it sort of looks like a dead ringer for a new CC, we're told this concept is positioned above that model. For now, that's all we know, but we expect a host of other details to be released closer to the car's official debut in Geneva next week. Stay tuned.
