Well guys here's my fully restored 1980 VW Rabbit with a 2.0 16V swap and GSXR1000 carbs on a custom manifold, a 2.5" body drop up front, cut springs for a lowered VW "If you ain't rubbing, you ain't dubbing" stance, big brakes Scirocco upgrade for the front and rear disk brakes, Audi 15" rims to clear the brakes, Allen/Hex head bolts throughout the bay, shaved rain try and bay, "Big Bad Blue" color code from an AMC AGX (I believe) with no clear on it yet, and a full black GTI interior. I'm putting it up for sale or to trade for a running S13 or S14 it doesn't have to be beautiful or perfect, just something reliable, I can always paint it later. I hate getting rid of this car because I've put SO much work, time, and money into it but I've run out of motivation to finish this car and just want something that runs and drives so I can finally have another running vehicle. I've got everything needed to finish this car including the MegaJolt Lite Jr. Ignition controller and the wiring which is really all that's left to be able to drive it but I'm not confident in my ability to wire up a car since I've never undertaken anything like this before. I'm 18 and have spent the majority of my time in high school building this car and spending every bit of money I was able to raise on this and I'll be shipping out for Basic/AIT June 1st and just want to get a vehicle I can drive now and worry about buying a project car when I get back from Basic. If your interested in it you can contact me at (870) 758-2590 call/text or at [email protected] Here are some pictures for those who are interested. Thanks, Chris.

And there are more pictures here if you want to see anything else from the build process, I don't have all that many pictures but there is enough there to see that it wasn't half-assed and no corners were cut when I was doing the body work and restoration. 1980 Rabbit 16V pictures by chris_johnson83 - Photobucket (http://s150.photobucket.com/albums/s81/chris_johnson83/1980%20Rabbit%2016V/)
