    There's an A4 for sale in Annapolis, MD area

    I saw this ad on Craig's list:

    Universal Atomic 4 inboard gasoline engine for parts. $200. Everything but the alternator. You pick it up.
    It's just outside Annapolis, MD.

    I contacted the seller and asked him about the engine, and this is his reply:

    It has not run since I've had it. It was rebuilt recently but began missing in one of the cylinders soon after. Replacing it with a diesel instead of trying to figure out what's wrong with it.
    Sounds like it could be a deal, and I'm interested. Problem is it's nearly a 3-hour drive for me, and I've got too much going on to kill most of a day driving up there and back.

    I guess I'll just toss it out here in case anyone is interested.

      Found it, but waaaaay to far for me. 3 hours bad enough for you, try 15 or something one way. LOL!

      BTW, why no alternator? He spent money on rebuilding it and didn't want to give it up?
