www.1800lastbid.com/Redirect/Terms.cfm?ID=1455The local auction guys are selling a boatload of odds and ends VW parts for models ranging from Type 1, III IV and Bus. You will have to search or browse the entire miscellaneous section to find it. Or use the word search and type in "Volkswagen" or "Part# VW" to locate most of it. Much of it is poorly identified and you don't know if it's new or used but in some cases you can get a good idea. It's worth a look. Lots of engine parts (rods, push tubes, rings, valves) though no idea what engines they go in. There is some water cooled stuff mixed in.

This auction runs all day on Thursday 10/21. You may be able to go to their warehouse and look at the items if you have time before the end of the auction.

Ok the auction site sucks for searching. Searches won't turn up more than 2% of what's out there.
If you get on the site, selct the auction for Thursday and then filter it by Grand Rapids.
Basically I browsed all 100 pages for the auction. There's no VW stuff after page 60. Here are examples of what I saw...
Boxes and boxes of used carburetors, rods, tubes, distributor caps, rings Axles IRS axle joints clutch plates flywheels cranks and cams clutch plates throwout bearings transimissions short blocks long blocks cases single and dual port heads exhaust systems generators shrouds gas tanks steering wheels front suspensions (type 1 I think) brakes master cylinders holly carbs weber carbs intakes brand new bus exhaust
Problem is that you unless you have a part number cross reference or recognize something by looking at it, it's hard to guess what its for. Most of the stuff appeared used so who knows the condition.
Happy hunting and don't bid against me.
;D
