yes. I need a running vw with a 1.6 non-turbo engine hydro or solid lifter. Doesn't matter whether it's in a rabbit golf or jetta. If it rolls turns stops and runs ok I'll come give it a look for sure. Plus I could meet you and Milt.
Ask im year, model, condition of pan and price. anything that doesn't work? Then I'll call im and ask similar questions before I drive over. This is going to be a test car so it doesn't have to be nice at all. just mechanically sound enough to get started. I don't want to have to start from scratch and build my own but that's the next step. In that case I'll definitly have to talk to him about engines. Did you know that any tranny from an inline 4 vw 79-present will work with the other diesel to gas and vise-versa. Just a matter of input shafts.
He may not have any together for me and in that case we may work something out. Hey just call and give him the feeler and if you think it's worth giving him a call I'll call him. If the contact leads me to what I need I'd give you the hun regardless if it's this guy or someone he knows. Thanks dude, I'm running out of good options. If I just would've insured the last golf I wrecked even though I never intended to drive it, that would've been a payday for me instead of a leak on my wallet that may never end.
