Ground up restored, funnest car we have!

1973 Volkswagen Thing Additional Info:

The funnest car there is. Brings smiles to it's passengers and onlookers. People smile and give thumbs up everywhere you go. It is easy to maintain, seats 5 people plus cargo. It goes off road, you can park right on the beach. Top down, doors off is my preference. Fold the windshield down for maximum exhilaration. Absolutely perfect summer, beach, resort car. Oh yeah, if you have kids they will love you for buying this "Thing".
This Thing has been restored from ground up.
EXTERIOR: The body is in excellent condition, no rust or damage. Completely repainted a beautiful aqua green color. The paint is very glossy, I don't see any significant flaws anywhere. New welting between the fenders and body. The door handles, mirrors, gas cap, light bezels all look new. It does have aftermarket Hella fog lamps. Upgraded chrome 15 inch wheels with trim rings and color matched center caps. Newer Firestone tires. In back it has custom stainless exhaust tips coming through the bumper. The convertible top is in very good shape, no tears. It has all the side curtains and they've been upgraded with sliding windows from the Thing Shop. The weather strips look like they're replaced.
