    Loved seeing an update! I'm from central Washington and also really into these trucks. I picked up an 80 sportruck from Eastern Washington, did a 16v swap and still get excited every time I drive it. Hope to see more of your journey and other projects!

    It's been amazing to come along with you on this treacherous journey about this rabbit pick up that has so much character and story to it I can't wait to see what happens with it in the future

    Planning on buying my first caddy soon.. been a dream of mine to buy one like that and rebuild the original motor, and drive it coast to coast. Not on the freeway. Lol

    Hi, I bought a 1980 rabbit pickup and I was doing some wiring work under the dash and now I don’t have any spark. I can’t figure out why, my plugs and coil are good so the problem probably is I messed up something under the dash or with the starter while putting it back together. I don’t really know what I’m doing so wondering if you could help.

    I would bet that rust below your rear window is also from mice. I’m fixing rust back there and had the exact same rust look you do. Those little things get everywhere.

    • @JamesCooperider
      @JamesCooperider  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh yeah, you’re exactly right. It was absolutely jam-packed with mouse nest! Combine that with (another) leaky window seal… it’s definitely a bummer.

    • @JamesCooperider
      @JamesCooperider  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I assumed that most people wouldn’t want to watch a video covering all of the little details and opted for a more generalized video. BUT I do have way more footage than what was shown here, so maybe if there’s enough interest, I could show everything!

      I'd love to know. I've got a 1.6NA caddy and know where a couple BEW Jettas are sitting in a field with ate up cams. I've been thinking about swapping my caddy with a "force upgraded" BEW when the 1.6 melts down. Or do I keep an eye out for a cheap ALH, if there is such a thing.
