Selling off my cores. I have three AAZ bottom ends to choose from. $40 each or $90 for all three.
I also have two overhauled heads and one core head
-
Bare cores, or complete with cranks, rods and pistons?
-
core shortblocks. all the guts included, probably some random external bits and bracketry in some cases too.
-
shipping to 17233 possible?
-
not really at this point.
it's only a 6 hour drive for you though. you could be here and back in a day, and pay Giles a visit at the same time! ;D
-
meet half way?
-
Sorry, dude, no time and just sold my diesel syncro wagon. Can't fit engine(s) in a lowerd wabbit.
I've driven from toronto to boston and back in one day, twice. It's a fun adventure. 6 hours ain't bad. :)
I'll write up a receipt for say $100 to keep the tax (if any) at the boarder cheap.
-
do you have any 1.6td bare blocks that would be suitable to put 1.5 guts into?
-
i have very little 1.6L anything left nowadays. try smokeydub on here.
-
price drop bump
-
you gettin my pm's don't know if there coming threw
-
another price drop bump
-
you decide if you will ship yet?
-
will not. sorry. no time to even think about how to think about that.
-
How long can they sit? If they can sit until I can get up there I will take them. I have no clue when that could be though.
-
dec 10th, they're going to the scrap heap.
-
price drop 4 bump
-
I want them. I don't know if I can get them by that time. I don't have whatever it takes to get across the border either right now. Where are you and I will see what I can do. Let me know where you are and I will see what I can do.
-
Stoney Creek, Ontario. about 25mins from the queenston/lewiston bridge near niagara falls. Three shortblocks will fit into just about any car's trunk. I'd imagine there's gonna be a bunch of other tidbits you'll be driving away with too, as I cull my parts heap to a moveable size.
-
Google says 6 hours one way. Not bad. I could do it in a day. What is needed for me to cross the border?
-
i've driven from here to boston and back in a day, so 6 hrs definitely isn't bad. :)
You need a valid passport.
-
working on it.
-
Does your state have any type of "enhanced" drivers licenses? Here in NY, they offer it for border crossings from Canada, Mexico and some Caribbean countries. It will not work on air travel, but obviously you will be driving. Showing some authorized documents to NYS DMV will let you obtain the enhanced drivers license. Maybe your state has the same, if you don't live in NY.
Good Luck.
Stay safe, stay well. Jimmy.

Lucas, you had better not make me buy one of those from you. :D

-

Good luck. You pay $$$ for the expedited process. NY State gives us that option w/o a passport with the license.
Anybody nearby that can hold these blocks for after the 10th???
Good luck on the sale, and good luck over there, Bryson.
Maybe you can show the Chinese how to make better VW parts.. :)
Stay safe, stay well. Jimmy.

There is no way to get the passport even the expedited I tried wouldn't get it by the weekend. If they could have it would have been way too much cash to make it possible anyway for the expedited fee. I want all the engines, but cant get there. Would you be willing to take them to the border or get someone to do so? Would somone else be willing to do it for me?
-
I would without hesitation, but I simply don't have time. I can ask a friend (now non-active smokeydub on here) if he would mind stashing them for you. Please let me know what the time frame is for getting a passport so I can give him an idea of how long they'll be cluttering up his space. ;D
-
As of ( Tuesday December 7, 2010 ), we are processing routine applications in approximately 4-6 weeks from the time of application
expedited is 2-4 and much more $$$. Let me know if I can come in the new year to your pals place. I will start working on the deal now.
-
good news. a friend of mine said he can bring them across the niagara boarder this saturday for $100.
Let me know if you want to go that route, as I'll have to arrange w/ him asap.
-
PMed. Leaving now so call if you need answers immediately.
-
Looks like its working out. Good luck.
-
I left at 2AM eastern this morning. I got back around 5:00pm after a little detour. 300miles one way about 425 on the way back. I have pics to post later.
I am excited. I met a real Canadian named Rich. Last time I was in Canada was when I drank...alot...Every bar in Windsor the weekend I was there ran out of Jack Daniels, Bacardi, and another that I can't remember now. It was bad, I have since cleaned up. I met Canadians then, but have no rememberance of them ;).

I rode like that for 6 hours back from Niagra Falls. I only leaked oil from one of them. The only one on my carpet, 3 decent sized drops that I will have to deal with. I unloaded them all myself and there is no noticable difference in weight from the 1.6 and the 1.9. All made me squeeze out a fart to pick them out of the car, no lie.
IDK and WTF....UNBELIEVABLE weird S******* happening on the way up and back. My SKY HIGH EGT's...about half way up just stopped being hot. They would level out about 1150-1200F in 3rd, 4th, and 5th. 1st and 2nd still pull enough that it wasn't stopping then. I thought for sure on the way back that it would be real bad with a little extra in the car. SAME as the way up. No more than 1,200F in the high gears. I don't know what the deal was but I hope it stays.
I have been up since 2am and am starting to get down to just my instincts...real cavemanish-EAT, something, SLEEP is all I am about right now. No intelligence, no empathy, I don't really make sense to me now. You all might not notice a differeence but I do ;D
-
Ha good read. Nice to know someone picked those up before they went to the scrappers.

Maybe it was the clean cold canadian air being pushed south by the jetstream! ;) ;D
-
Glad to hear you made it ok man!
I finally got the Golf out on the highway last weekend on a trip to Columbus, @75 MPH the EGT's don't go above 800 unless I put my foot in it to accelerate. WOO-HOO!
I hope you get your EGT situation sorted out. At this point I'm probably running more fuel than you are. LOL
I'm trying to talk my buddy into swapping an AAZ into his Jeep. He just dropped like $475 for a transmission service. I told him that would pay for and probably cover about 3/4's of a rebuild on one AAZ. :P

-

-
you see that jetta full of AAZ engines, about 3-4 posts up? thats Lucas's car with all of Dr.Diesels AAZ engines.
in other words
SOLD!!!
-
He still has the heads just not the blocks as far as I know. He did say he could store the heads so I don't think they are for sale until he is settled in China or wherever he was going.
