Title: FS: '81 1.6L NA Drivetrain. 28tkm/17.5 K from new
Post by: CdnVWJunkie on January 27, 2012, 03:35:12 pm: FS:

I have the complete, as pulled, drive train from a Caddy project. The truck is an '81 and it was pulled from the road in '84. 28 TKM/17.5K on it, believe it or not. This isn't a museum quality piece as the truck sat outside the whole time it wasn't used. I had a young apprentice working for me at the time when I first got the truck and he thought he'd surprise me with getting it running while I was on lunch break but the TB was so old it snapped while he was rev'ing it and bent valves unfortunately- yes, nice surprise thank you :P

So what it is:

- fully dressed 1.6L NA engine with all trimmings
- fully dressed 4 speed transaxle, still connected to the engine

It's not stored in a very easily photographed spot but it's been dry storage since it was pulled. I'll do my best this weekend to shoot some. The Caddy project is now gone and I still have this but don't have a use for it. Looking for a fair offer on it. Yes, I will ship but the buyers expense.

Slap some new valves in the head and run it. 28000 km TOTAL on this! Not looking to get rich. What's a fair offer on the package? Let's start at $325. I'd prefer not to ship but will if all costs are covered.

Post by: CdnVWJunkie on February 29, 2012, 07:13:22 am: Still here. I actually have another complete engine and trans too. This one a runner. Same price if the buyer grabs both.

Cool! Thanks for the offer. That's generous especially since it's going to Alaska ;D
