You mentioned engine lid. Any for busses? I could use another one for my 64. Maybe a kph speedo as well.

Good luck dude, Going through stuff like that takes time and dedication. I didn't see any in the pics but I'd guess that some is lying around there. What about glass? There are alot of guys looking for specific pieces of glass for their rides. sekurit, sigla, with and w/o the VW emblem.... the list goes on. We have a guy here on the West coast that has a TONNE of bits and pieces. He's always a favorite at the swap meets. You can throw that angle at the wife too. Good luck.  |

Good luck. ya I know it would take time to get 200$ back from it but I think if I can get back 100$ then I'd be happy!! the motors & tranny's I want but that to me is worth 100$ and any of the small bits there was 3 boxes of just door handels the pics didn't show from all the chrome shine!!I seen a box with 5 distributors, lots of heater boxes that looked OK and a shelf full of bug tail lights I think it would take the summer to pass it all off but after getting 150$ back I would just sell everything off for 5$ and walk away from it!,you said glass yes there was tones of it! thinking about it I seen three stacks about 25-30 peices door and I seen a few ovel for bugs ?? I think I'll go up tomorrow and have another look around and see about those rims ,after talking to him for a 1hr I only had 15min to look around and things are so scattered that I could only see so much!! you mention vw emblem you mean like this:  www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=397956I have one of these for 20yrs now ?why looking for one?? mine is in the same condition as this one cheers SPICE |

I think most glass should have the manufacturers name on it (Sekurit, Sigla as Mowser mentioned). I know I've got all Sekurit glass in my Ghia, but I think you could probably find glass from any specific year car from different manufacturers.
I honestly don't think it will take much time to get your $200 back, the good stuff will go pretty fast, but do you have the storage space and time to deal with what's left over? Personally, the year our son was born I think the Ghia saw the street maybe a couple times, there just wasn't any time or energy left over to deal with it. Not trying to discourage you, but it's amazing how much life changes when you bring that little bundle home.
If you can get more pics that would be great. Honestly so far there was nothing in the pics you posted that I think I can use (I'd need more info on the speedos I guess). Keep us posted!

For $200 I say just do it. $200 is very little money these days especially when it comes to cars/parts.
I saw a single side cover (SSC) IRS trans in the 1 pic you posted. Thats easily worth $100, and is very popular with us high performance VW folks that wanna build a stout trans. There is undoubtably a lot of odds and ends that are not very valuable in there, but that stuff you can just give away. It's what you find at the bottom of all that stuff...it may be worth it just for one treasure in that pile.
Remember sites like this one and the Samba are your friend for liquidating a parts stash.
Good luck!

You parting out a 64 bus. Any chance you still have the bulkhead behind the front seat?
