I guess some "free VW" luck rubbed off on me yesterday! My neighbors told me they have an old beetle engine behind their house and I can haul it off. It "fell out" of its Bug about 1.5 years ago. The Bug was later stolen, and the engine forgotten. It seems a bit weathered, but it IS a dual port with all of the tin and such. Heat exchangers look to be in fair condition, too. Only thing missing appeared to be the carb. That's MY luck story. Of course... My brother's roomie just bought a '68 standard bus for one dollar. Not running, but everything is there.. If he gives up on the project, I offered to give him a %500 return on his investment. heh. Greg
