Let me start by saying that in Ga a vehicle 1985 and older does not require a title. I purchased this truck on a clean Ga bill of sale which allows it to be tagged, insured, and driven. I am trying to go back to the owner before the previous to get the original title. But as of right now it will be sold with a clean bill of sale. Please check your state laws on age and titles before you purchase it. Now for the good stuff.....


This is a pretty clean little 1982 VW Rabbit pickup. It has the 1.6 diesel and 5 speed tranny. The body is pretty good but has some dings and pings. It has a small dent on the passenger side rear quater (please see the pics) It is sitting under original paint and it is showing its age. Great news. This is a southern truck and has no rust inside, outside, or upside down. The engine cranks easy and runs pretty good but does blow a little black smoke under a hard pull. The tranny works well and the clutch feels good but the shift linkage needs some love. It takes a few miles to get use to but once you figure it out your good to go but I would fix the worn parts. All the glass is good. Doors are good and windows work well. The clock still works. The interior is original but I do think the door panels have been replaced. I was told by the previous owner that the injector pump was recently rebuilt when he stopped driving it regularly a year or so ago. Tires are good. Brakes work well but their not ABS. Bed has had some sort  of spray in lining. The biggest thing about the truck (and I may be wrong) Im pretty sure its a factory ac truck. The compressor is gone but all the lines are still there??? I dont think many of these were ac equipped. Again I may be wrong. Long story short these are hard to come by and diesel are even harder. The truck is straight and runs pretty good. It has sat for a while but still had current tags on it and was driven from time to time. Please feel free to ask any and all questions before you bid. If you want to talk in person then shoot me your number and I will call ya. DO NOT BID UNLESS YOU PLAN TO BUY... If your local please feel free to come see it for yourself. I also have another injector pump and some vac pumps that will go with it. DONT OFFER ME SOME LOW BALL ASS OFFER. I will sell early but the price for that aint cheaper. 

Shipping is up to the buyer. I will assist in loading unless it gets me fired. I can deliver locally if needed for a fee but it does run and drive...

Next VW GTI to get 10-speed dual-clutch gearbox

Wed, Nov 26 2014

Following on Volkswagen's official announcement that it was working on a ten-speed, dual-clutch transmission, Auto Express has it on "good authority" that the new transmission will end up in the next GTI, GTD and Golf R. The brand's current seven-speed will be retained for lesser eight-generation Golfs. While the new gearbox won't be limited to just the higher-end Golf range, the new hatchback, expected in 2017, will be the first to get it, Auto Express reports. The new DSG is the same size as the Volkswagen Group's seven-speed dual-clutch, and will easily fit into VAG's MQB platform, so we should expect it to filter into the rest of the Group's vehicles, much like the seven-speed 'box has. The ten-speed is likely to see applications beyond even the small cars of the MQB platform. The gearbox can handle 405 pound-feet of torque, according to AE, making its application in larger offerings such as the gas-powered MLB cars and crossovers a likelihood. Beyond the new gearbox, Volkswagen is also toying with mild-hybrid tech for the standard Golf and better batteries for the e-Golf. As we said, expect the new Golf to arrive in European markets in 2017, with the current Euro-market Golf getting updated next year. As for the US, we wouldn't be surprised if VW followed the trail blazed by the Mark 7, with a North American arrival for the eight-gem Golf slated for a year or so after sales in Europe begin.

Audi, Fiat squabbling over numbers and letters

Mon, Jan 19 2015

There have been rumors and speculation and prognostications about a Nissan Juke- and Mini Cooper-fighting Audi Q2 since 2012. There have been the same for a performance-oriented Q4 since 2011, perhaps previewed by the TT Offroad concept shown last year at the Beijing Motor Show. Turns out that those two alphanumeric combos are the only ones missing from the series Q1 to Q9 in Audi's trademark stable, and the Ingolstadt company wants to get them to make its badge sequence and crossover lineup complete. But Fiat owns them, and rumor is, CEO Sergio Marchionne appears to have no interest in selling them. Fiat has used the Q2 and Q4 like trim badges, identifying whether a company product has two-wheel or all-wheel drive. They did it with the Alfa Romeo 159 sedan, and they do it now on the Maserati Quattroporte S and Ghibli S Q4 sedans. Car magazine says Marchionne "may not be categorically opposed to selling the rights," but he absolutely won't do it to any fiefdom in the Volkswagen empire, which would leave Audi a jilted suitor. Why is Sergio being so serious? VW Group CEO Ferdinand Piech first starting waving torches on the bridge between the two companies when he said Alfa Romeo could sell four times as many cars if Volkswagen owned it, then burned the bridge when it continued to publicize its desire to buy Alfa Romeo. VW followed that up by throwing salt on the land around the destroyed bridge with its aggressive pricing in Europe during the worst of the car sales slump there, which Marchionne said was causing a "bloodbath." VW's final flourish was to set the river itself on fire, when a press officer said Marchionne wasn't qualified to head the European Automotive Manufacturers Association (ACEA) and VW would quit the organization if he did take the top spot. That is why, putting it optimistically, Audi looks to have a grim chance of getting the Q2 and Q4 marques from the Italian. So long as he is in power, at least: Marchionne said he's walking away from the job in 2018. Audi might have a better chance bending the knee to, and generously rewarding, his successor.

Volkswagen considering a four-door, four-seat XL1

Fri, 22 Aug 2014

According to a report in Autocar, Volkswagen might have more in mind for the XL1 than mining it for advances to grace the next-generation Golf. Aiming to fight the Honda FCEV due for public consumption next year, we're told VW executives have put a four-door, four-seater version of the XL1 - it could be called XL2 - on the drawing board. The impetus is said to come from the top, with VW Group chairman Ferdinand Piëch intent on staying in the deep end of "super-efficent vehicles."
Autocar suspects the necessary changes could raise the weight of the car from 1,749 pounds to 2,068 pounds, which would make it four pounds less than the 2,072-pound Up! we drove a few years ago. Crucially, however, the mag thinks the extra capacity wouldn't change the two-seater's 310-mile-per-gallon rating, with tech tweaks and the aerodynamic benefit of a longer car offsetting the weight. Speculation is that the back seats would be staggered like the fronts in order to maintain the XL1's overall profile.
We recently heard about another XL1 variant that's gone off the radar entirely, the Ducati-engined XLR that we thought we'd see at the Geneva Motor Show and that was said to be going into production, so this one could go the same way. The biggest hurdle to making such an idea a reality, though, could be the price: the current XL1 costs 110,000 euros ($146,116). If VW really is going to compete with the Honda FCEV and the Toyota FCV - $70,000 in Japan - that might be where it wants to start.
