This Thing is set up to be the perfect "Every Day Driver" "Beach Cruiser" "Off Roader" "Urban Assault" or maybe in its roadster configuration without the doors and windshield down is the set up for you to enjoy...with the wind in your hair all year long. The reliable strong running 4 cylinder 1600cc bulletproof air cooled VW power-plant purrs like a kitten and is mated to 4 speed manual transmission. Clutch is good. The traction advantage of the engine being over the rear driving wheels makes it a very nimble and able vehicle, and it's very fun to drive. It can go places others can't. This Thing brakes well and handles great. The exterior is custom painted a matte "Hella Yella" Jeep color by Nason. The interior is black with comfortable high back contoured seats. The rear seats fold down for more storage. This is a very unique and versatile vehicle. Why buy a $60,000.00+ Jeep (that you see everywhere) when you can have this cool collectible classic. Jump in and cruise this VW Thing down the road and you will see why this is the perfect vehicle for a beach day, camping or anything outdoors. Super fun and affordable to own and operate. Volkswagen only sold these in the USA for two years ('73 & '74) so it is very collectable.Losing my storage area so it must go.Minor issues worth noting: A little fogging on the bottom of the windshield, horn andemergency flashersnot presently working (bulbs/ fuse/ loose wire?), reverse lights not working (bulbs /loose wre?) front seats are power units but are not hooked up, heaters controls not hooked up (In Florida so never needed). Shifter Pops out of reverse sometimes, and It had some common rust in the battery area but it was repair welded.
THIS "THING" IS PERFECT FOR: * Everyday "Super Cool" Daily Driver* The Beach / Off Roading* Weekend Getaways / Camping* Business Promotion (Perfect For Surf Shop? Dive Shop? Urban Outfitter?)* Any Business That Wants Maximum Attention* A Sport Ute You Can Enjoy....Street / Sand / Mud / Off Road* Ultimate Grocery Getter (for the surfer or off roader in you!)* Seeing The Country / Outdoor Excursion or a RV tow behind vehicle? * Car Shows / Tour Vehicle / Novelty Vehicle / Wine Country Tours* Automotive Investment / Auto Museum* A gift for the someone that has everything!* Income Producing (Specialty UBER Type / Valet / Shuttle Business?)* Family Fun...The Toy You Always Wanted!
