Own a piece of automotive history! Your chance to bid on a 1981 VW Rabbit, Diesel.   It's a great little car that needs some work.

Here are the flaws:

Rust spots
Missing head liner
Right rear fender needs body work due to recent fender-bender
Emergency break handle needs to be fixed
Temperature gauge and fuel gauge not working- instrument cluster connector needs to be rewired
Ignition switch doesn't always work- there's a push-button start under the dash. We consider this our security feature.
Driver's side rear door doesn't open. It's also missing the inside handle
The rear windows are missing crank handles. We have one- it floats between the two.

Here's what we've done and what works:

New battery
Rebuilt alternator (You'll see a volt meter just below the dash- this was installed during the time when the alternator wasn't working)
The engine works and works well. I'll email a video of the engine starting/running upon request.
Brakes are good
Tires are good and, included, a FREE set of 3 snow tires, plus one extra all-season!
Replaced rear shocks in 2013

There's no reserve on this beauty. Make an offer and its yours, provided you can come get it. We've been driving it, as is.   While it won't pass inspection, you could certainly drive it out of here with plates.

VW recognizes second union at Chattanooga plant

Wed, Feb 18 2015

The ongoing story of organizing workers at Volkswagen's factory in Chattanooga, TN, continues to get more complicated. Following an independent audit, the automaker has now recognized a second union at the plant called the American Council of Employees. The group was founded there last year to offer an alternative to the United Auto Workers. "I'm not anti-union. I understand that a properly run union can benefit people. We will be that union," Sean Moss, president of the ACE, said to Reuters, according to Automotive News. The group claims to represent at least 15 percent of the workers at the plant. Acceptance of the ACE has led to an interesting situation in Chattanooga because VW also recognized the UAW at the factory in December 2014, and the group has claimed to represent at least 45 percent of workers there. According to Automotive News, each union has access to management, but the UAW has more because of its larger contingent of supporters. However, neither organization has a collective bargaining agreement with the automaker. Moss may have a rough time increasing support among employees at the factory. According to Automotive News, many anti-UAW workers there are completely against unions in general. Getting these folks to join his group isn't an easy task. The UAW has been working to fully represent the VW factory for years. However, the group lost a vote to do so in 2014. It eventually created a union local there to try to build support. All of the effort comes ahead of a $900 million plant expansion to add about 2,000 jobs and build a new crossover in Tennessee.
