engine number
Hi, can anyone help.
Trying to find out where engine has come from in Allans car, vic roads giving me a hard time.
The engine no. starts with an AS I can't find much info only that it might be a replacement case or from a super bug does that seem right, and what
year would it be.
thanks

Thanks Lee.
That helps, he has a couple of beetles around, I will look to see if thats were he got it from.
The car is a 1967 kombi van, do you think that it will be a problem with Vic Roads having a different engine in it.
