1973 Volkswagen THING type 181 red with new black top and grey interior. This THING runs and drives perfectly and always starts right up and is ready to take you wherever you want to go. You can drive this car anywhere with confidence.  My wife and I bought this this THING  from a Texas collector a couple years ago and had the car shipped to us.  The collector had done a complete rebuild on the motor a few years ago and 5000 miles ago and he drove and enjoyed the vehicle and at that time the odometer was reset back to zero so the car shows to have a little over 5000 miles on the car. The vehicle has no rust and does not appear to have ever been wrecked or in an accident.  Approximately 1 year ago we had a VW THING expert mechanic go thru all of the mechanics of the car and spent $2502. 00 on having anything that needed replaced or that was worn replaced of which we have the receipts for showing everything that was completed.  We had a new clutch installed. wheel bearings repacked. some seals and hoses replaced and all fluids changed to make the car in great mechanical condition.  Shortly there after we purchased a new black soft top for the car which cost $1375. 00. We have the side windows for all 4 doors but those are not new.  We also installed a new stereo and speakers in the car with an MP3 player hook up. The tires are in great shape.  The car has an older paint job but still looks great but does have a few chips and scratches.  This car is in great shape and the engine compartment and trunk are very clean.  The THING draws a lot of attention everywhere it goes.  This car is a great driver that you can enjoy and get a lot of looks while driving it.  Title is clear and in hand.  For any questions please feel free to contact Michael at 317-710-2897.  Vehicle is located in Indianapolis. IN and I will help to assist if shipping is necessary. Happy bidding and this THING is looking for a great new home!!!
