Michael Ferreira was first to the line with a correct-sh answer to yesterday’s Clue, down to a 3 year range, at any rate. As should be expected with ’70s GM iron minutiae, Junqueboi was there soon after with the exact year, make and model (right down to the Brougham). How he did not have the interior color code and the production date, I have no idea. Slacker. Anyhow, I don’t know enough about those cars to know whether that steering wheel was Brougham-specific, so I say we recognize both of these sharp Curbsiders.
Today? Well, by now we all know that it’s a VW/Audi product. Now is your chance to be more specific.
Vw rabbit pickup 79-80 or so. Known as the caddy everywhere else.
William, I think you have it. Just for fun, we’ll say it’s an 82 Diesel VW pickup/Caddy….
I can’t be the only one that notices these old VW trucks appearing under the Cadillac listing on eBay because they were known as “CADDYs”…
1980s F-150 based Ford Bronco.
I’m thinking no, unless Ford sourced VW/Audi windows.
Hey, Andre Roy… don’t feel too bad. That was my first thought, too, until I read JPC’s intro.
I thought first-generation four-door Explorer, until I noticed the door handle isn’t right.
It must be the pinstripe that’s growing us off, because that pattern was very common on Fords for many years.
Yep, Rabbit pickup.
Yeah, the FWD VW pickup, and one where at least the door got resprayed, but the year, nodda chance.
And that WAS without having read JPC’s intro yet.
It’s a VW pickup alright. I’ll spin the wheel and choose 1983.
I’m going to say it has the sportruck graphics down the side as well.
I’m going with Fox wagon. VW Fox wagon that is, the Brazilian two-door from the late ’80s.
+1
1989 Fox in Titian Red.
+1 with the US-spec brazilian VW Parati. It could be a Saveiro too (pick-up), but I think these didn’t arrive there…
1980 model Caddy – Pickup in Tobasco Red
Nope. Window corner is rounded in the pickup truck, but not in the clue. Also, rearmost portion of window slopes backward but slopes forward in the clue.
Just a tip BB, posting photos in the CC Clue is frowned upon.
Whatever it is the door trim doesn’t line up.
Was just going to say that, lovely panel gap there.
Vanagon 4 door pickup
