This 1974 Volkswagen Thing is finished in green over black vinyl and powered by a 1.6-liter flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes a black convertible top with side curtains, a fold-down windshield, removable doors, 14″ steel wheels, a trailer hitch, lap belts, and a cassette stereo. The car was acquired by the seller in 2016, and recent service includes an oil change and a transmission service.
The car is finished in Avocado Green (L60F) and the seller states that the driver’s side was refinished under previous ownership. Features include black bumpers with rubber overriders, a black soft top with side curtains, a fold-down windshield, removable doors, a trailer hitch, and side air intake panels. A dent is noted at the rear of the car between the engine cover and the bumper.
Steel 14″ wheels wear VW-logo hubcaps and are wrapped in Tornel tires. A spare is mounted in the front trunk, and braking is provided by front and rear drums.
The open-air cabin features black vinyl seats, body-color sheet metal, and diamond-plate-pattern rubber floor mats along with lap belts, sun visors, and an aftermarket cassette stereo.
The four-spoke steering wheel frames a 100-mph speedometer with an integrated fuel-level gauge. The five-digit odometer shows 92k miles.
The air-cooled 1.6L flat-four is equipped with a Solex carburetor and a remote air filter. An oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle.
