1973 Volkswagen Thing. 1600cc motor is a robust powerplant that will be easy to keep in top condition for years to come. The tan folding roof has a high-quality look to it, and that's part of this car's secret charm. The whole interior was done with the same care and thoughtfulness as the exterior, and you especially see that in the upgrades. For example, the upgraded steering wheel has a terrific grip and there's even the VW logo stamped in the center spoke. The wood overlay on the floor really reminds you this is a truly cool beach machine. The black roll bar adds safety while nicely coordinating with the black exterior accents. There are familiar pieces that remind you of the VW family like the four-speed gearshift and VDO gauge.
