a little more info. the motor is carburated model. unknown mileage but ran when pulled unknown compression again ran good when pulled. i have a few more questions out there for him right now. hopefuly i can get a good feel for what it may need by tomorrow and i will have my offer to him by sat or sun. he said it may need new apex seals as well but he was not sure since he did not do a comp check. thats it for now anyways maybe more tomorrow. also any good places for hp rebuilds or info on turboing it and also stock rebuilds as well(places for parts and such). i have been looking through here but alot of the links i went to seem to not be workig or are no longer in use.

Dune buggy would be awesome. I would not offer more than a few hundred. Especially if you do not know any specifics.

sounds like a great build! I am actually thinking a vw baja with a rotor power would be awsome!
