1973 Volkswagen Thing

This 1973 Volkswagen Thing in its sunshine yellow paint radiates a sense of summer fun, while its boxy silhouette and raised stance hint at its go-anywhere spirit. Sure, the black cloth convertible top might take a bit of muscle to maneuver, but that\'s part of the charm, transforming this Thing into a breezy open-air cruiser. The 14-inch steel wheels keep it classic, and those roll-up windows and gleaming chrome exhaust tip a little reminder of the 70s flair this machine carries.

On the inside of the Thing you\'ll find an interior that embodies no-nonsense functionality. Durable black vinyl bucket seats were built with adventure in mind. The floor-mounted shifter promises a hands-on driving experience, and that AM/FM radio is all you need to set the perfect soundtrack for your next road trip. The simple dashboard and uncluttered layout let you focus on what matters: the joy of the open road.

The rear of this Thing holds a true automotive classic: the air-cooled 1600cc flat-four Volkswagen engine with a newer replacement carburetor. This iconic powerplant, borrowed from the Beetle, is known for its simplicity and reliability. A 4-speed manual transmission puts the driving experience firmly in your hands perfect for those who appreciate a more connected feel. While this vintage machine might not be a speed demon, its independent suspension and drum brakes provide a capable foundation for exploring those off-the-beaten-path adventures.
