Much more than it would have been 3 years ago.

Depends on everything. Mileage on engine/rebuild, compression, oil pressure. I would say a range for a running engine would be from 200.00 = steal to 3,000.00 = better be new or you are getting ripped

Thanks. I bought the whole car. It's a little rough but the engine runs great. Will be parting it out or selling the whole deal.

Glad you got the whole '84.
 They are my favorite Rabbit. They have things the others don't.
Like wheel well liners and the front bumper cover plate thing, better sound deadening on the firewall, a speedometer that goes higher, a flywheel with the degrees stamped into it, etc.
 I could probably use a spare raditator for my '84.

I'm trying to sell it as a complete car first. I would love to keep it but making money right now trumps my wants. Here it is listed on CL. If I had a title I could have sold it three times now. If I don't get any interest in a while I may see what I can do about a title.
