Nice looking ride! I'm looking for seat options myself for my 80, those look like they may very viable option.
(just realized this is my first post, after being registered and lurking for a year! lol) |
Thanks alot! I Took the foam and upholstery off the bottom and removed the whole back of the 05 passat seats and fit them on the rabbit bottom bracket. It's alittle work but turned out good. |

I looked at my paperwork for my 75 Rabbit. Built in 11-74, 7,xxx build number.
Must have been built in the first week or so of US production. I noticed the single instrument hole, top of the line had TWO holes. Speedo and clock. Why not a tach?? Crazy Germans... |

No American made Rabbits until July of 1978 and they were 1979 models.
