I would add 914World user name of owner, engine & transmission serial #'s, interior color & seat insert type. We could add a list of paint codes and interior codes as an addendum to the form. Door glass type (Delodur -0 or -F). Karmann body # stamped into right corner of rear trunk, or tag in front trunk. I don't think we should limit this to the 1.8 engine cars. We could have a universal form or a set of forms for different cars. Listing of options would be a nice addition. We could add a list so that just codes can be entered to save space and add clarity. Optionally, an email address would be useful for contact purposes should we want to confirm something. A fillable PDF form would be useful so that data can be entered by computer for clarity. Great suggestions! Will work on it. I used to know how to do fillable Word docs converted to pdf; don’t have Acrobat to make forms directly. i can convert it to a pdf if you send the word doc to me. |

@wonkipop
@jeffbowlsby Saw this “610” tin in a 1.8. What does that denote? Don’t recall seeing this number before. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ![]() |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ![]() 610 is an EA 1.7 engine from 1972-73. (49 states engine - calif 1.7 from 73 was an EB and was marked 613). i would say that is not an original 1.8 engine in the car but a replacement engine. check the oil filler tube and cap and other features that identify L jets. its also possible that its a frankenstein engine. plenty of those have come up. tin on a 1.8 is identical to 1.7 so you can easily build up an engine out of various pieces, but its not an original piece of 1.8 tin with that number. further numbers from that era were that all euro 1.7 engines in 72/73 appear to have been marked with 606. prior to that in 70,71 and maybe part way into 672 they used a different coding system. the number was 0.226. also additional M codes also stamped on the engine tin identified them as european market or north american market packages. |

That would explain it - Frankenstein engine. The rest is clearly a 1.8; just a replacement tin. Will let him know. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
