Default Caddy home finally
She's finally home, and I can't stop grinning.

Until I saw the pic of the engine, I was thinking "did you find that in a museum?". Damn, it looks good!

Looking GooD

(with a capital D)

@Airtime: Plans? I hope he's quite finished with it: It looks brandnew, everything done to it in this state won't make it better.

(lowerring and rimms are offcourse the obvious, but hey: it's a caddy: it should at least look like it could haul some tons-o-equipment!)

Sorry for the absence, guys. I've just been having too much fun driving it to be on the puter much. I can't stop grinning and it's starting to hurt.
It's a totally restored truck (took 15 years - hasn't been on the road since 1991) and I'm the first Canadain registered owner. It's got a 1.6TD, 5-speed and Jetta interior with extra gauges. It'll get some engine mods (turbo downpipe, intercooler, TT exhaust, GTD injectors, oil cooler and a G60 Cast valve cover) and I'll probably drop it some and go for some oldskool wheels when I find just the right ones. I'll also be adding newer Mk3 door handles, smoked corner lights and euro headlights with "city lights" (all here new in boxes).

Wow, air conditioning. I miss that in mine and would like to add it. Mine is a 1981 turbodiesel 5-speed with a Jetta/GTI interior.
My bumper is a stock piece and I may know where to get one.

Would you interested in talking to someone in Germany for me?

I want a black cover, but he won't answer Emails from Canada.
