There is also the search at 356a.com - but I checked and the engine hasn't been reported to the DB....

Here's what the site DOES say about that engine number -

Engine number 602629 is a 1600 (Type 616/1 T5), part of range 601501 to 604700.

This engine was originally fitted to a car as follows:

1960 (built 1960) T5 B cabriolet (Reutter) with a serial number between 152944 and 154560.

Thanks, gents, I checked those sites first. So this is the "internet shotgun blast" with the hopes that someone, somewhere, might know the whereabouts.

Thanks, I'm not sure the fellow that I'm posting for is looking for a period correct engine, but I'll ask..
