Yesterday my buddy and I were out looking for some sheet metal to make a hood for his fireplace. All the metal supply stores are closed or on the other side of Houston, so we hit up a metal recycler in League City. In the back were probably 10 bay windows, 5 bugs, mostly late but one pre 67, some vanagons, and a 66 or 67 fastback. All were pretty rusty, I did see a bay window westy fridge/sink, a green plaid bus rear seat/ z bed. cars didnt look too stripped, like the fastback still had seats.

I didnt get a better look because we were allowed to pick through the yard for scrap, not look at whatever all those cars were. The place definitely buys stolen copper and scrap. I'm sure if you wanted non-metal items from the vw's, they would sell them. Momentum Iron and Metal

That doesn't sound like a buddy deal. Is it complete and run?

That rolling storage facility type one in the pic looks like a good clean project. Does it run.
