I have an opportunity to purchase a 1972 Type 3 Fastback. The previous owner swapped out the Type 3 engine for a larger Type 4. According to the owner it has run for years this way, but he had lost track of the oil level and then blew the crankcase.
What I would like to get a handle on is, how much can I expect to pay to repair this blown crankcase? (New crankcase?) I van purchase the car for a song, but I would like to know what I am about to jump into.
