iHaul - '84 Caddy / Rabbit Truck with ITB'ed ABF
 
figured i'd continue the topic here..

I bought this 1.6 petrol caddy back in 2007:



drove it for a couple of months, sold it to Stijn, who turbodiesel'd it but sold it in parts later on. He sold the caddy shell to Jaap in dec '08, who put it in storage. I bought it back and just picked it up last weekend:






took some fresh pics of my rocco meanwhile



Plans?

TDI engine, probably do the chipping myself






ultra long ASD 02A gearbox with custom mounts, converted to cable clutch and shiftrods instead of cable
so i can run 13x6 inch Melbers


Recaro's
Paint cream white
Stack exhaust
Use

Hoping he means stock, not stack...

Marcski 29-01-2010 10:48

nope, i ment stack.. what the hell, i like it, and when i get bored i can always change it back

breadfan83 29-01-2010 13:29

Oh wait, that was for the Caddy, not the Rocco.

Truckerpipes on a Caddy are cool, Jap-style stacks on a Rocco.... not so. :D

Marcski 29-01-2010 14:46

Chromosexual 29-01-2010 18:37

Marcski 05-05-2010 16:01

so, i sold the tdi, but parted a passat the other week..

the new ABF lump:



it's in such good shape that i'm keeping the motor closed for now.
ordered a bunch of goodies like 02A mounts, shiftrod-conversion, stiffer motormounts, spaghetti and Megasquirt :)

De Pul 05-05-2010 17:08

Marcski 06-05-2010 21:00

My brother likes them to and is trying to mount them under his Golf TDi :tongue:

Marcski 11-05-2010 11:06




i'm really anxious to try the 02A shiftrod-conversion

Tjaap 11-05-2010 11:09

moneyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy spent.

Marcski 12-05-2010 12:55

and some 02A mounts


joostvw 12-05-2010 13:56

cool :thumbup:
but what happened to the rusty wheels? I like them.

Marcski 12-05-2010 20:12

still in the garage, 13" is just too small for highway use

De Pul 12-05-2010 20:23

nice stuff:thumbup:

Marcski 12-05-2010 21:44




thanks for mounting the tyres, Stijn!




VeeDubber 13-05-2010 08:41

Nice!
The parts look promising Marc :thumbup:

Marcski 31-05-2010 10:38

moar parts;

25mm adapters for rear axle and g60 brake adapters;



megasquirt 2 v3.0 :)



once i clean up the engine-bay in the next couple of weeks i can start building again

De Pul 31-05-2010 20:09

nice:thumbup:
why do you run it on ms?
original management isn't that hard to install?

Marcski 01-06-2010 09:20

i know, but just because i can :D

probably will overhaul the engine later on and install throttle bodies, but the stock ABF is an ideal base to hook up and learn all the ins and outs of MS

Pedaalemmer 01-06-2010 09:30

Nice project! love the rimms!!!!
