I have one similar to that one. 131K miles on it.
great little trucks they are, the world needs something modern that is similar in economy and cost.
Sold... Somebody's new baby now
Our next summer project is grafting a Tesla battery into a solectria E10 50kw 1\2 tone pickup truck.
the new owner has done a great job of general restoration of the 1980's chassis
Nice I like it.
I noticed the WA state plates. I live in WA and would love to see that VW in person. What part of state are you in? I am in Longview.
these videos were taken near castle rock, but this truck sold for 6000$ back in 2014
then we bought a nissan leaf with traler and hitch that is still the best crew cab 1 tone shop truck to this day we have ever owned
65 mpg on fry grease
fun build
Hasty Heat thats why little diesels were popular then hahaha, my grandfather worked for volkswagen and he used to buy those and trade them in for the new one every like 15000 miles, he is so lucky that he got to own all of those volkswagens when they were new
@@1986Honda4trax perfect little people movers, reasonably safe in thier era in an accident, not as safe as todays cars. and now with the efficiency and performance of cheap used EVs even diesel is passe

Hasty Heat i know they were good fir their day and not compared to new vehicles. Its really good for me though lol.
@@1986Honda4trax the MK2 intake manifold off a golf, and the VNT15 turbo with integrated manifold off a jetta made for a real sweet turbo addition to the 1.6 stock diesel.
though it could make 20 psi of boost quick, we limited it to 6 psi to keep it mild. it did a great job of adding a pinch of power, and really cleaning up the exhaust, while boosting fuel mileage.
Nice! What kind of mpg?
65mpg
Is it really 1/2 ton though?
These little trucks may weigh even less
@@HastyHeatLLC usually when a truck is referred to as a 1/2 or 3/4 ton, it is in reference to the payload capacity of the bed. As the capacity is higher, the frame is usually implied to be more robust. With that in mind, I now highly doubt it’s a 1/2 ton truck. I think you mean curb weight.
@@jeorgelowpez2069 that makes sense, I bet google would know.
@@HastyHeatLLC regardless, cool truck, I’m debating buying one that is in need of a full restoration
beautiful truck mate. how much for er?
