Today i was with a friend at a local metal scrapyard and while looking around i found completely in the back under a tree a 1600 beetle engine. There are parts missing, such as distributor cap and sparkplug wires, coil... but the engine itself is there.(no generator or carb either) I took a large adjustable wrench and attempted to turn the flywheel, in which i succeeded, so the engine is not seized. I pulled the dipstick and to my suprise there was still a bit oil in the engine. The engine is covered with mud and grass growing over it. I asked the owner and he told me i could have it if i liked. What parts could be salvaged of this?
