Volkswagon Caddy Mk1 1988

Mars Red Mk1 Vw Caddy that is now sadly up for sale so I can finance my next personal project. This is 100% rot free never welded & doesn't need any welding. It retains 90% of its original paint & when I set out to put it back on the road I never had any intention to restore such a lovely truck with bags of character. Yes it has the odd dent & scab but everything on the truck is 100% original including lovely original rear bumpers & original mirrors etc etc etc & I spent a long time looking for the right parts that were missing. It's had an axle flip on the rear & coilovers on the front & running freshly painted "original" 15" G60 steelies with brand new nankang sport tyres all round. It can easily be reverted back to stock as I have all the original parts with it. When I got the truck the engine was missing & being originally a 1.6 petrol I managed to source a low mileage (42k) engine & fitted a new cam belt, water pump & gave it a full service also. I then fitted a weber carb & mated it to an 020 5 speed box & it runs & drives lovely. Here's what's been done.All new brakes including new front calipers, discs, pads, hoses, brake pipes, rear cylinders & shoes, oh & new handbrake cables. Basically all stock but brand new.New exhaust. All new wheel bearings.New Radiator.All new interior switches.Engine has had new cam belt, weber conversion, plugs, points, leads, distributor cap, rotor arm, oil change & filter, air filter, 020 5 speed box fitted with fresh oil, new water pump, new fuel hoses throughout the truck & new fuel filter. There's probably something I forgot but its probably been done. New battery.New rear shocks & U bolts.All new earth leads.Fuel tank removed, inspected, flushed & refitted with new hoses.New driveshaft boots.New Front & rear window seals & genuine vw glass all round.New Newton caddy door cards.New "expensive" deep pile black carpets.Fully dynamated (well equivalent cheaper version) cab floors, doors etc.Wiper blades, number plates, passenger wing repainted as original was missing. I have loooaaads of photos of the build & more photos upon request but please only ask if genuinely interested.Please note the steering wheel is NOT included in the sale, it was a present from my Mrs so will come with a stock one fitted.Please feel free to contact me if you are GENUINELY interested please. Its a lovely truck that wants for nothing as its mine & I like things right & it is as you will not find another caddy like this with untampered with bodywork.The price is £9000. O.N.O.It does need a couple of little bits doing that I just havnt got round to sorting that are very minor things, dash cluster lights needs bulbs, needs a stereo fitting or put a dash blanking panel in if you choose not to fit one. Missing passenger door handle/armrest easy to find although I may have one soon.& that's about it. I have a lift at my shop so can be easily viewed underneath & checked over, no problem.It's a shame to see it go but I want to start my next project & the Caddy will fund it.Many thanks & please if you have any questions please ask or call the number provided.
