SOLD
1974 THING- drive it home in So Cal Price: $4600
1974 VW Thing. Good condition. Picked it up to build an offroader...but then found a completed offroad one I couldn't turn down.
It's got a good top (maybe 2 years old) , new side curtains, new carb, just got a clean bill of health from the local import shop.
Body is straight....a few scratches, but no damage. The pan has a repair under the battery, and has some rust, but is solid. I believe the car is probably 90% original.
Needs nothing to drive it daily. The drivers seat could use some attention, and probably new tires if it is to be a driver, as these are showing some dry cracking.
My wife wants to keep it (she says it's cute), but we don't need another car. Let me know what questions you have.
