Vehicle Description
This 1973 Volkswagen Thing in its sunshine yellow paint radiates a
sense of summer fun, while its boxy silhouette and raised stance
hint at its go-anywhere spirit. Sure, the black cloth convertible
top might take a bit of muscle to maneuver, but that's part of the
charm, transforming this Thing into a breezy open-air cruiser. The
14-inch steel wheels keep it classic, and those roll-up windows and
gleaming chrome exhaust tip - a little reminder of the 70s flair
this machine carries.
On the inside of the Thing you'll find an interior that embodies
no-nonsense functionality. Durable black vinyl bucket seats were
built with adventure in mind. The floor-mounted shifter promises a
hands-on driving experience, and that AM/FM radio is all you need
to set the perfect soundtrack for your next road trip. The simple
dashboard and uncluttered layout let you focus on what matters: the
joy of the open road.
The rear of this Thing holds a true automotive classic: the
air-cooled 1600cc flat-four Volkswagen engine with a newer
replacement carburetor. This iconic powerplant, borrowed from the
Beetle, is known for its simplicity and reliability. A 4-speed
manual transmission puts the driving experience firmly in your
hands - perfect for those who appreciate a more connected feel.
While this vintage machine might not be a speed demon, its
independent suspension and drum brakes provide a capable foundation
for exploring those off-the-beaten-path adventures.
