Summary
This 1973 Volkswagen Thing is an unrestored example, acquired from its original owner 25 years ago, and is believed to retain its original paint and body panels. Powered by a 1584cc flat-four with a 4-speed manual, it features recent maintenance including an oil change and valve adjustment, along with upgrades like front disc brakes and KYB shocks. The car shows 58k believed-accurate miles and comes with a clean California title.
