Summary
This 1973 Volkswagen Thing features a repaint in 2014 and an engine rebuilt in 2018. It includes a black vinyl soft top, a roll bar, later-model front bucket seats, and wood duckboard-lined floors. The five-digit odometer shows 19k miles, but total mileage is unknown and the Ohio title notes "exceeds mechanical limits".
