Thanks for all of the quick responses on the value of this engine. That is kind of what I expected. I am going to talk to my sister and let her know. I am guessing they will sell the van all together. It is an 86 Syncro the body is in good shape, it has 350,000 well cared for miles with a fairly new rebuilt front end. The engine has low compression on #3 (no known reason). The tranny that would come in it (literally inside of it) would be one that no longer goes into 4th gear. I will let you guys know first if she decides to sell it this way. thanks again, Craig the Gorge VW club White Salmon WA 90 Multi Van 86 Quantum Syncro (stock) 87 TURBO Quantum Syncro (for sale) 86 GTI (for sale) 73 Thing 60 Double Cab |
