1988 Volkswagen MK1 Caddy Rabbit import

EBAY DOES NOT RECOGNIZE EUROPEAN VIN. TRUCK IS NOT FROM 1980.
Up for sale is my 1988 MK1 Volkswagen caddy Built in Wolfsburg Germany it spent the first part of it's easy life as a German Red Cross vehicle stationed in Singen, Germany. I purchased and imported the truck in the spring of 2013. I showed it at various car shows that summer promoting our small VW parts business. It has been garage kept since then. I added an early MK1 rabbit chrome bumper to replace the later plastic euro bumper. Original late model bumper and hella fog lights are included in the sale. There is no structural rust anywhere to be found. However along the bottom of the Original windshield seal there are a few spots from where the paint has started to lift. The Caddy shows 11,171 Kilometers or just under 7,000 miles. I believe this to be accurate because of the over all original condition of the truck. Included TUV paperwork also shows kilometers at time of inspections. I welcome anyone to come and check it out for themselves.

This is a very nice MK1 caddy, rabbit pickup. You will be hard pressed to find another example this solid and clean. Not to mention it was German built and is 5 years newer than any North American rabbit pick up.

I reserve the right to end the auction early as the truck is being offered for sale locally.
Please do not bid unless you are ready to buy the truck. I've had 2 separate parties back out on me. It's not only frustrating it's a waste of time and money.
Thanks
