Vehicle description
Up for auction is this awesome 1973 Volkswagen Thing just in time for summer! It"s a great example of what a rust free, top down, vintage VW should be!
Power out back is provided by a stout 2110cc engine with dual carbs mated to a brand new Pro Street "freeway flyer" transmission. Runs great and shifts crisp. This Thing gets down the road and gets the looks! It"s sitting at the stock height, wheels are 15" Empi Sprintstars wrapped in Dunlop 215/65R15"s the way around.
All mechanical and electrical items work great with no issues. Brand new electric fuel pump installed recently. The paint is an older job(not sure when exactly) but is in pretty good shape. There are a few little nicks and chips here and there but nothing major.
Interior seats are stock style black vinyl and are in awesome shape. There are vintage Coco Floor Mats covering the inside floor, rear cargo area and trunk. It has the sliding glass style side curtains from the Thing Shop in AZ. The convertible top latches into place over a removable roll cage. I am also including a "bikini" style top that installs over the roll cage. This style top only covers the top of the vehicle and not the sides or back. Please see pics for reference.
Any questions please feel free to email me! If you"re local, please contact me to setup a time to come by and see the car for yourself.
Deposit amount of $2000.00 due within 3 days of auction end and FULL payment due within 7 days of auction end.
Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer but I will help with the logistics in any way I can.
Good luck bidding!
