1973 Volkswagen Thing Description

Available is our 1973 Volkswagen Thing in stunning metallic green on black upholstery. Original Arizona car. Driven less than 1,000 miles since complete "nut and bolt" restoration - factory rebuilt motor, transmission, new soft top, windows (curtains), interior, upholstery, wiring, felts, gaskets, paint, suspension components - all restored to as-new with meticulous attention to detail. Driven and garage kept primarily on the east end of Long Island for the last five years.

Our VW Thing runs and drives exactly as it did from the factory. Steering is responsive, gears change confidently, clutch and brakes are superb. It would be very difficult, if not impossible, to replicate this example. This is an investment grade air-cooled Volkswagen restored correctly with an open checkbook.

Includes original key, jack, spare tire, technical manual - clear NY title in hand - serious buyers only.

Additional photos available upon request. Sold "as is", inspections before bidding are welcomed.
