I was out driving this BEAUTY today taking the pictures and I felt like I was driving a nearly new VW! We just purchased this car from the owner who lives in California and as you can clearly see in the pictures this was his pride and joy. He was very meticulous about his car it shows. This car is not your average old VW Thing Convertible that is worn out with a new paint job. This Thing is a rust free body even at the battery tray. between body and fenders. see pictures. it was kept in his garage the whole time when it was not being driven. The previous owner rebuilt just about everything on this car. The entire interior is redone even the new rubber floor mats. The Original front seats have new padding and new original style covering. the Original black convertible top is also in excellent and condition. Also all of the original rubber weather-stripping and vinyl windows are in great shape and clear as is the rear window!! I believe it is a nice value at the price we have it listed at considering its great condition! Cars like this were quite a novelty in their day to say the least but now. in this kind of shape ? What a find! The Thing enthusiast should be pleased to own this BEAUTY. I drove this BEAUTY as my every-day driver to and from the office and running errands as needed and I can assure you this car runs and drives well. It also does well on the freeway at highway speeds thanks to the freeway-flyer transaxle. If you can make it to Boise in the next ten days please come look at and drive this car for yourself you won't be disappointed. It has the - STRONG – Original - 1600cc Dual Port Air Cooled Volkswagen four cylinder motor in it that is running VERY WELL. The previous owner had a VW specialty shop rebuild the motor and less than four thousand miles has been put on the car since. It also has a "freeway-flyer" transaxle four speed manual gearbox that also was rebuilt along with new rear axle assemblies and hubs and they function VERY well. Sounds good too with the stock style exhaust system. I know you are going to think IMPOSSIBLE. but we have not had any leaks under this car at all!?? The White with Metallic maroon paint is nice with really little to no wear showing other than a few small chips and imperfections and is bright. shiny and looks STUNNING as you can clearly see in the picture. The Black vinyl interior is VERY NICE and looks BEAUTIFUL including VERY NICE Original Black Vinyl front bucket seats that were just reconditioned with the original style black vinyl and new padding. VERY NICE Original Black Vinyl rear seats. NICE Black rubber floor mats. NICE ORIGINAL steering wheel. VERY NICE ORIGINAL gauge cluster. black Vinyl sunvisors and original black dash pad. In my opinion you're not going to find a much nicer INTERIOR on a 42-year-old car than the one in this car. This Thing Convertible is nicely equipped including working power wipers. original gauge cluster. Dual XR4115 digital media receiver with USB. SD. AUX inputs for your phone or MP3 player it has 2 X-plore speakers in the front and a removable box in the back with 2 Woofers and 2 Tweeters and sounds awesome. Dual Chrome exterior side view mirrors. custom flushed taillights. seat belts. nice rubber weather-stripping. good glass and factory side windows with Vent windows and Original storage bags. The CLEAN - SOLID - "front trunk". This is a QUALITY car that drives very well and is nice and tight. Odometer reads 91. 46 miles. but true miles are unknown. but this rig was not driven much. It is a really COOL little vehicle. Check out the VERY NICE custom 15 inch Polished Aluminum Centerline wheels wrapped in nearly new steel belted radial tires. boy does this combination look outstanding on this BEAUTY and really gives it that mean off-road look. The front skid bar. light bar Bumper combo looks awesome and the rear bumper is in nice shape! This is a nice Classic collector VW Convertible custom and it has plenty of good looks to boot!
