1981 Volkswagen Rabbit Description

Willing to drive and deliver anywhere between Michigan and Florida (including east coast, Carolinas, Atlanta), as I need to make a trip down south in the next month. We would need to come to some agreement on deposit if I were to deliver the truck and it was out of my way.
The body and interior are in decent / rough shape, but everything is functional and the engine is in great shape being rebuilt about 30,000 miles ago. It also has a new battery, lots of newer drivetrain parts including front axles, full slightly-raised suspension, ball joints, tie rod ends, etc, new seat covers and door panels; new tail light lenses, BedRug bed liner, and definitely more things I'm leaving out.
It has an additional 10 gallon fuel tank in the rear completing the full vegetable oil system that is not currently hooked up but has a custom heated fuel pickup in the tank and fuel heat exchanger mounted in the engine compartment. I drove a few thousand miles on vegetable oil but don't currently drive far enough or often enough to use it. It has decent strut towers, but some obvious body rust; the most pressing of the rust issues is under the driver seat where the seat rail has come through the floor (you can see it in the pics). That is why the carpet is out in the pics, but I have it and all console pieces ready to reinstall. I'm motivated to sell, but also looking for the right owner that will take care of this truck.
