No,  there was no way I could get the things done here that needed to 
get done  before we left and also get to the Wolfe auction. What a 
shame. I hope at  least some of that stuff got into good hands. Does 
anyone know anything  about the outcome of that auction?



I did talk to Marilyn afterward, and she said they had a good turn out, and 
 everything sold. A good part of it went to Nebraska (as 2 VW clubs came to 
 bid on stuff), but some went to Kansas, WI, Minnesota, and Iowa. I heard  
later, from someone who attended, that you could pluck items out of the  
totes, and bid on just that, then the rest of the tote would literally go  for 
pennies on the dollar. He said a lot of it went really cheap, he was buying  
bus parts, along with a few water cooled bits. Marilyn's comment to me was 
"at  least everything will be used, or re-sold by VW people", as that's what 
 mostly showed up. She was surprised to see that many VW people come to the 
 auction from both in and out of state, and buy stuff though. 
 
I don't know how much she made off the auction, as it wasn't totaled up yet 
 at the time I talked to her, but she was pleased with it, and now can move 
 on.

They've still got some clean up to do to the property, but that's minor  
compared to what was in the shop.The 2 buses, the Baja bug, and the 66 
Fastback  also sold, as did Russ's downstairs office chair (she was really 
surprised at  that one). ;-)
