Used Car of the Day: 1978 Volkswagen Rabbit
There's no doubt that today's UCOTD is a project car. This 1978 Volkswagen Rabbit will need a TON of work.
It's a diesel that hasn't been started in over a decade and it needs a full paint job -- and that's just what we know and can see from the ad. It probably needs a ton more work.
It does have a sunroof and brown interior, and the seller can provide you with a features list. It also clearly has a manual transmission.
If you need/want something to wrench on, this one can be yours for $2,500 and it's in the Sacramento, California area.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.
