This 1973 VW Thing is powered by a factory-correct AD-series 1600cc
dual-port air-cooled engine and a 4-speed manual transmission.
Finished in vibrant yellow, this U.S.-spec example features black
bumpers, a folding windshield, a convertible soft top, and
removable doors all key elements that made the Type 181 such a
standout.
With its clean engine bay, restored fuel system, and tidy interior
including wood floor slats, this Thing is both a collectible and
ready-for-fun driver.
This classic is part military Jeep, part beach buggy, and 100%
unique.
