Please note: this is NOT a fishing trip type ad, where we lure you in and then hit you with we dont have it or if we do, its $$$$$$ over new. This is the actual estate of Mike Griswold, the Grizzley race car creator, and it is massive and I am unable to individually list items.

Mike moved to Minnesota after his disappointment with how he was treated by racers that he bent over backwards to help win, and literally hoarded VW items by the room full. And when I say roomfull, I mean it. I have seen the estate, and gone from room to room and it IS a VW collectors dream.

Large assortment of new and used VW type 1 and 2 parts. The new stuff is nice, the used items will have surface rust on some of them.

Parts include:

Sand rail frames. prototypes. non running frames only

full engines, some may include all parts but may well need teardown for inspection
cylinders / jugs
engine blocks
axles
suspensions
front ends
steering
brakes
carburators including some Webers
pistons
transmissions
starters
transaxles
wheels / rims
hubcaps
clutches
electrical
engine parts, ALL, cams, pistons, connecting rods, on and on
specialized parts
exhausts, stingers, lots!

Tools: tubing bender, metal lathe with NEW and unused boxes of collets, welders, both stick and gas, machining tools, calipers, drill presses, in depth tool sets and collection, boxes of metal drill bits, massive stick welder that is 3x5ft tall and works, on and on.


I am asking people that are interested to send me a list of items you specifically want and I will email back a list with what we have in that category. No games, no baloney! Yes, we will sell it all to one person for $25k, otherwise its going as individual parts.

You will find us extremely easy to work with IF you are upfront and dont play games. We dont hold parts, your POSTAL MO buys em. No checks, no Paypal. All items will be shipped UPS or USPS or FedEx from 56465 zipcode, or nearby.

My contact mail is: vwsandrail AT charter DOT net

So is this bogus or what?  I sent an email, no reply... posted here, no reply.

I call shenanigans/BS on this... no response when emailed directly, either.

I would suggest that this ad be deleted, as it does not appear to be valid.
