Gateway Classic Cars of Scottsdale is pleased to digitally present
for sale, on consignment, this quirky but cool, 1973 Volkswagen
Thing.
The Type 181 is known as the Kurierwagen in Germany, a Trekker in
the United Kingdom, the Thing in the United States (1973-74), the
Safari in Mexico and South America, and Pescaccia in Italy.
This 2 wheel drive, 4 door convertible has removable doors, a
folding windshield and drain holes in the floor so you could spray
it out with a hose.
Power is provided by a 1600cc flat four engine, single carburetor
with a 4 speed manual transmission. A roll bar, canvas top, vinyl
windows, seat belts and cloth interior round out the features on
this minimalistic Volkswagen, everything you need and nothing you
