Here is the VW van on Ebay. It's got a $34.99 Buy it Now option and hasn't sold, with five offers. I'm surprised, VW collectors generally love this kind of stuff.

On the asian vase is there a mark on the bottom? We would need a picture of that.

Open up the door an look around inside. There's a similar clock that is worth about $7.000. I'm not sure that's it.

CORRECTION*** the big vase says "B.Mossant #5" and the smaller white asian looking vase says "Capodimonte Made in Italy 459"

That's a really good clock! Let's wait and make sure I'm right. The Capidimonte vases may be worth about $200.

No one else has any input on the value of these antiques? or direct me a way to find out more information? =|

Everything looks reproduction or mid to late 20th century department store antiques.
The Elizabethan lady is a print - the images of the other two paintings aren't clear enough.
The clock is reproduction and might be worth a couple of hundred dollars in the right sale. The movement should be marked inside, even with numbers, monogram or logo / emblem and could be German.
