Title: early type3 1500 engine (old stuff) Post by: nicolas on July 30, 2009, 08:10:43 am this is an engine in very good condition (Russel Ritchie can attest this as the engine came from him)
the engine is from an early 63 squareback and has all the rare and unique parts intact. the engine runs and is intact. i tried it as a replacement engine in my fastback to come to EBI2 (see picture) with some parts swapped to 12V. the picture i posted with the add shows the engine when i had it fitted with the 12V parts and different exhaust. but that is all brought back to original (with heaterboxes, exhaust, distributor,...) the engine has some unique features only seen on very early notchback, 34 and squareback engines that were built in 62 and 63. these are the heaterboxes, exhaust, distributor (big one), the tin is specific (and very cool). the engine is rebuild (not by me) and expertly done. i wanted to keep it as a spare, but maybe someone has better use for it in an early project or just likes the pure and old looks off this engine. i am open for offers on this one, but is was hoping to see something around 500- 600 euros for the complete engine. (will consider a straight swap for Sarges car. ;)) |
