 |
|
Hi All, I looking for help to identify the year and type of vehicle for this 2 piece split case. It looks very much like early pre-A Porsche cases but does not have any numbers typical of Porsche cases. I have taken pictures of some of the stamped numbers.

Yes, just a normal VW Beetle engine case.
$750 would be a complete running 36hp engine IMHO
Or an NOS VW 36hp engine case |
I want a $750 NOS 36hp case. |

That was not the best example as an NOS case would typically be more than $750 these days but a used case?
Way less. $75 might be more realistic given the year of this one.

Yes, at $75 I do not think there would be a line of buyers for that. |
