Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

How do you buy it?Comment
-
You'll need to register as a bidder online then go in on Friday morning before bidding to inspect (optional). Bidding normally starts at 10am but depends what lot number it is. If you get it I'm keen on the gearbox!Originally posted by anthony--t View PostComment

Ah what a pain in the ass. I'm very interested in it though and would have to bid without inspecting. I wonder what it'll go for if it's worth the effort for me. Wouldn't happen to know when it has to be collected by the winning bidder?Originally posted by timiteo View PostComment

Need a 50% deposit on the day and then you need to pay the balance by 3pm the next business day. Not sure about collection but I'd say soon after you pay. Are you just going to grab the running gear I assume?Comment

If its cheap enough Id like to grab the whole thing and salvage some windows, running gear and interior for an upcoming project. I can sort you out with a gearbox though if I can get my hands on this.Originally posted by timiteo View PostComment

Sounds good. If I had to guess I'd say it would go for about 1 to 2 thousand, but it depends on who's there bidding on the day.Comment

I'll be at tafe but I'll see if I can keep my eye on it. Might be better off waiting out for something else. Shame to let those sideskirts and rear window go to waste though not to mention the rest of the car! Interested to know where it ends up.Originally posted by timiteo View PostComment

You can get those side skirts on eBay for a decent price, just not the rear window!

be careful of the glass in that rear window, often when its been hit like that they are under quite a bit of stress already and any slight attempt to shift the glass results in the whole thing shattering (know from experience!).
