Question type: Shopping & Pricing

I'm about to buy a 1977 VW Convertable bug, what should I look out for. It has fuel injection, will this be a problem, I see where many have converted to carburator, it this complicated.  What would an entire engine and trans cost, and who provides the same that it ethical?  Any, other suggestions?
