I have removed the 1.8 liter VW engine from a 1985 Vanagon.  The block
has a hole in it where a rod pokes through.  The electronics are
complete? and worked before the crash ~1992. There are parts and maybe a
head, maybe two.  I am in Morgantown West Virginia close to the Mason
Dixon line

Does anybody out there need a core for rebuild or parts from this kind
of an engine?
