That sucks Tom. Was the engine completely rebuilt or just head off?  I've std journals crank and some std rods you are welcome to if needed

.

I've a twin port engine in the barn I got with a car . Has a fair bit of end float but your welcome to the top end if it Helps. Can't  remember if it's 13 or 1600cc but will look at the weekend if you want .

Chin up
 
Regards Ron

Thanks for the offers

I am just burnt out, rather get rid of everything and start again

Thanks!
Can't wait!  Just want to keep it simple, just like when it was finished first time round
Max morley's bug ,inspired me in a big way 😎

 
Keep at it, don't give up on it yet. I think we've all had times when a breaker bar through the windshield seems like the right thing to do...

That did make me laugh 

Have already taken the nice bits off
Just doing a gearbox swap in the street 
Then it's going on eBay

[beetletom]

Well, here it comes to the end, and my end of aircooled ownership (for how long?!)as swapped the car for a nice mk1 gti.

I didn't achieve what I wanted to unfortunately, lost the love for it after it got vandalised
And the shoddy work that some big names had done to the car, since I sold it first time round

Luckily it's going to a friend who liked the car ever since she first saw it,and appreciates the history and how good it is for a uk car.

That's a shame. Want to buy a sunroof 65? Lol

Haha!
I actually had a buyer for mine lined up instead, but as you already bought the 65 by this point
To be honest, couldn't have gone to a better person, to do it full on 

When I do decide to get another bug, it'd have to be a steel slider, as have wanted one for a very very long time
