Having to rebuild\replace Engine
Last time I rode my 71' VW in July it started to blow oil out the back end.
We thought it was the Seal but I was not that lucky. The bearings are shot. So we began tear it down for a rebuild. It looks like the case is shot.
So now I'm saving my pennies and looking for place to get a new or rebuild engine.
Not what I wanted to happen but I'm telling myself that... this way I "know" what I'll have once I get done.
It doesn't matter what you are riding as long as you are riding something.

WOW sorry about the engine. There are rebuilt engines on E-Bay you might check out. Good Luck

That is one of the places I've been looking...
Has anyone delt with either West Coast Core or Herrell Bug Parts?
I was looking at either their rebuilt engine

or new engine

Or maybe one of thier complete motors...

Lindy at Herrels is good[a bit far to travel too], also Tim at Tim's VW part in Austell is closer and the best in engine building and will treat you right in price and great build on the motor, his # is 770-941-7329 and ask for TIM, or get a used one out of a VW bug off CL.
