Apparently these are still manufactured in Brazil, and I think they were manufactured after 1974 in Mexico.

You may have better luck trying to find a Mexico or Brazil sourced motor for one than to find one from the USA, where the air cooled motor was last in 1974 due to higher emissions.

You are looking for trouble with no end. A car like this would never be reliable - besides it would not pass a safety test unless you put some serious money into it.
