40 horse engine for sale Empty
PostSubject: 40 horse engine for sale   40 horse engine for sale EmptyMon Aug 15, 2011 9:35 pm

So I just bought this complete engine to run in my buggy while I build a bigger one, and then found out in needed new pnc's, I just picked up a brand new set of malhe pistons and cylinders for it and had the bottom end looked at by a vw engine builder who said the bottom end was in great shape. he said the end play was good as well. heads are also in excellent shape. Looks to have a new clutch also, any way, now I have decided to sell my buggy and have no use for this motor. It has a 30 pict 3 carb that is like new inside and out. I have new push rod seals, intake and exhaust gaskets for it as well. this engine won't break any speed records but should provide many years of putting around town. will come with some misc. parts too. let me know if you are interested. sorry I don't have any pics right now but I will try to take some later. just wanted to give you guys a shot before craigslist. looking to get $400 for it. if anyone is interested I want $3000 for the buggy.

Ah, OK. Looking for an older one for a 1960 bus so yours is too new. 8-)

Thanks though.
