Would anyone be interested in this? It runs but needs a some work. We took it out when Mike and Wade put my 1600 in. I don't need it anymore and want it gone.
Name your price.

my dad installed it in my beetle in 1976. And it was driven daily until 1996. Then it didn't run until 2012. When I drove it in 2012. It was real weak. It barely ran up a small hill. I honestly don't know what it would need to get it running back to all of it's former 36 glorious horsepower. I hope this helps.

No one wants this motor? I'd hate to scrap it.

I know myself and another guy who'd be more interested if it wasn't out in Billings unfortunately.

Put it out on CL, it'll be snatched up quick. Make it $100 and make your money back.

Well depending on price, I could meet half way.
And Mike I probably will, I just wanted to give people on here a chance first.
