A military legend transformed for civilian adventures, this 1974
Volkswagen Thing has covered only 1,952 miles since its full
restoration. The yellow paint announces your arrival on any
terrain. A quartet of Hella fog lights blazes the trail ahead,
while the black vinyl convertible top lets you adapt to nature's
moods. The angular military design flows to dual exhaust tips. The
14-inch wheels wear Kinergy 195/75R14 tires, perfect for exploring
paths less traveled - a rare opportunity, as this German machine
was imported to America for only two years.
The black vinyl interior creates your adventure control center. The
bucket seats lock you in position for every off-road challenge,
complemented by rugged rope floor mats. The wood grain steering
wheel connects you directly to the road or trail ahead. A modern
JVC AM/FM/CD/USB audio system, with custom-mounted 6x9 speakers and
a subwoofer, provides the soundtrack for every expedition in this
classic field commander.
The German 1600cc engine works with a 4-speed manual transmission
to put you in complete control. The dual exhaust system produces a
satisfying flat-four bark. Independent suspension at each corner
keeps all four wheels planted on any surface. Four-wheel drum
brakes handle speed control, while quick shifts through all four
gears let you match engine power to any terrain.
