There's nothing else quite like the 1974 VW 181 "Thing" out there, and so they are instantly recognizable.  They were only officially imported to the USA for two years, so they are exceptionally rare.  To add to the unique qualities of this unit, this is one of only 400 of the Acapulco additions that were specifically built for production.

This Thing runs and drives like an adult size go kart. Super smooth and a blast to drive, with all the attention you care to have.

We are downsizing our herd, so preferences are to sell it outright, but may be interested in partial trades and or interesting vehicles.

Please no spam calls or messages, dealerships offering to assist with selling, or out of country inquiries.  Will not respond to Still Available
