If being unique is your thing, we've got just the Thing to set you
apart from the crowd!
This 1973 Volkswagen Thing is a cool 4-seater that can be buttoned
up with a full soft top and windows, or completely open with no
top, no doors, and the windshield flipped down! Talk about the
ultimate open air driving experience.
The VW Thing is essentially a big adult go cart, and it will surely
put a smile on your face when you get behind the wheel. The 1,600
CC 4-cylinder engine has just had a full tune up and oil change and
it ready to enjoy. The 4-speed manual transmission is fun and acts
as a modern day anti-theft device.
The exterior is painted in a two-tone White over Yellow that looks
fantastic. Orange accents on the pinstriping, rocker stripes, and
wheels really pop and make this Thing one-of-a-kind. With a unique
tire carrier on the rear bumper. The interior matches nicely with
white vinyl seats, painted dash, and nice black carpet kit that
ties into the black convertible top nicely.
Recent work to keep this Thing in tip top shape includes: new
tires, new battery, tune up with points, spark plugs, condenser,
adjusted carb, valve adjustment, fuel filter, generator belt,
intake manifold boots, and timing reset. It also received a new
master cylinder, brake shoe adjustment, fresh oil, oil
filter/screen.
This VW needs nothing but a new owner to drive it and show it off.
Don't hesitate as these don't normally last long on our site!
