That guy with the goats
What did I do today - @alphaseinor dropped by with his wife earlier. We both agreed that the pistons/rods in my 2002 Beetle are all foobared. He hasn't really seen that bad of a motor in a while. We're pretty sure the crank is toast too, so at this point, it looks like block swap time. I'm just yet sure if I want to do a 5 speed swap or not, but it sure is tempting. I know I can pretty easily get $300-ish for the 01M (and that pretty much pays for the engine I have sitting on a stand, sans head, that's going into this car over the next few weeks).
