FS: 1985 jetta 1.6td

Post by lilpig88 »

As the title states, I've got a 1985 jetta with 1.6td motor. Was originally a turbo car but the current motor is a 1986 I believe (hydro head).
has a k14 turbo on it and runs fine but is tired. Is still driven nearly daily. Nearly new tires, snow tires and rims (if desired for a small price, negotiable), recaro seats front and rear (out of an '88 GLI). New steering rack, tight suspension...no clunks. Some rust.
It's nothing fancy but is always a joy to drive. I've owned it since 2005 and it's always a joy to drive. I'd be happy to email more photos per request. laughing (dot) camel @ gmail . com

I'd like to get $1000 for it but I haven't been active on these forums for years and have no idea what these cars are worth anymore. I'm moving and getting rid of a slew of vw diesel stuff and hope for the car to go to someone who cares instead of the junk yard.
I've also got some 5 speed transmissions, turbos (k24 and t3 for sure), old motors, and other parts that just seem to procreate.

Thanks,
I forgot to mention those features. Would also make a great parts car :) I don't think I can let it go to a yard...

Some preacherman wanted to buy my bronze Rabbit TD.
I sent him to you.
A MK2 Jetta TD is more what he needs.
Hope he wasn't a scammer that just wasted your time.
