hello All, I have a chance to buy a very clean '81 wagon for 1,500 that has had the head and sump removed as the PO was advised that the rings were badly worn. My question is, easy to pull pistons and re-ring with correct ring size? The car had the head redone to the tune of 3,000 dollars plus so this car has seen some love and this work was recent. I think the PO just got it in his head that the car needed rings based on a mechanic's advice (?) The engine has 189,000 on it which is low mileage. The PO paid 5,000 for the car last year - I am going to offer 900 and hope to get it running this winter. This will be my first ring job - I will also reseal motor and take care of other work in and around the engine. All comments are welcome! Car has been stored in a garage here in California
