VW MK1 Caddy Rebuild Start Part 1

It is a 1982 VW Rabbit pickup black tie edition on diamond silver
The not so fun part one! I bought this truck almost eight years ago as a half ripped apart project, in those eight years I got the engine bay painted and the body stripped to metal and then it sat. Finally I am getting back to working on it.
Hopefully this is the last of the messy work, I wire wheeled as much as I could of the bottom. Did two coats of silver paint and then clear coated it with two part clear, all the rear suspension and gas tank were sand blasted DTM primed black base and satin clear coated.

Just subscribed to your channel! Love your project Caddy, and I’m super jealous of the pristine body work.. I’m working on my 82 caddy and have been struggling learning body work as I go haha, have to get those body lines glass straight! Anyway I’m enjoying your project and learning a bunch too with your suspension and brakes video.

Hey man, pretty cool 1st video. But i think you could do some introduction. Introduce yourself, talk about the project, the car, what will you do on the video. I think this will make the video more fun to watch. Got new sub, shout out from Brazil! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🚙
