Wow! Have they really climbed that high in price? I think I paid $5,500 for mine, '87 complete with everything plus headers, Wong chip, extra set of cams (stock cams) and couple other goodies. It ran when I bought it and reportedly had about 40K on it. That was in about 2013 I believe.

prices are climbing. when you call dismantlers and ask about air-cooled engines in stock? they typically say no.
In the bay area the shops are asking somewhere in the 7-10k for 3.0 complete and 9-15k on 3.2 complete. https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/det....php?id=2047854 https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/det....php?id=2024010 |

Now that gets you a core in need of a rebuild without induction, fan or exhaust. A good (stock) rebuilt motor is $12-14 without making every part look pretty. Rick at weekend rides had a low mileage '95 - 3.6 calling my name but my wallet couldn't take the $15K hit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) |

I just bought a 0 mile 3.0 rebuild for a core price. Hopefully I can put it to good use.
