My $500.00 1975 2.0 I will be posting pics of my progress as I clean up this engine and put it in my '71 that currently has the stock 1.7L. Engine was running when it came out of the '75 about 3 years ago. About 10,000 miles on rebuild before it came out of the car, according to PO. No plans at this point to tear it completely down or do anything special (or costly). Just clean it up and replace/repair whatever is necessary. I welcome in comments/suggestions/opions that anyone wants to throw my way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Hopefully by next summer my I'll be driving my new toy.

Thanks for all the great replies.
Oh yes the fan shroud, I wasn't really planning to do that but I just wanted to see what a a wire wheel would do. Once I got started I couldn't stop. It turned out really nice. I am trying to figure out what kind of clear coat to put on because yes I'm sure it will oxidize quickly. Too bad you won't be able to see much of it, It would have looked nice in the '74 VW Bus I once had, oh well I will know how cool it looks. More progress this week, I hope.
