Yes, let the hate begin.NOS 74 thing Exhaust Price: 1,800
For Sale NOS 74 Thing exhaust system. Let the hate begin $1,800 + shipping this has been sitting around collecting dust and its time to sell it as i am selling my thing. Yes i am out of my mind on the price of this system but if you can find an NOS system these days then you know why its priced the way it is. I hate parting with this but i need the money to finish my 71 Super beetle.

Funny
I will be have some of them NOS genuine VW for sale real soon.
The price will be between 700-800 US $ a piece.
I know on Monday the exact date of delivery.
The last of them sold 650 US $ each and the last one sold on January.
Shipping to US is about 175 US $ (I have shipped to NY and Canada)
And ofcourse WAY less if we go surface but it is SLOW...

Scott at German Supply is doing just that with the bug pea shooters.
I have a complete new OE German powder coated 73 Thing unit that is being sold for $450
A number of years ago I had a custom made Thing merged header fabricated with new high volume, high performance Danish heater boxes and a Phat boy muffler and it was way less that 1/3 of that price.
