So that means you get a rare and distinct classic that looks bold, runs strong, and feels fresh, right down to the seating. There's nothing else quite like the VW Type 181 Thing out there, and so they are instantly recognizable. And since they were only officially imported to the USA for two years, they are exceptionally rare. But nearly a half-century later, not all of these are presented equally. This one is a cut-above with a full frame-off restoration later in life, and they really made sure to build quality into it as they built it back up. For example, you have aircraft-grade Jet-Glo paint, so that vibrant orange is part of an extra durable shine. And those hardy steel bumpers not only look like they could push obstacles out of the way, but also the clean black look goes nicely with the fresh body seal rubber to give a nice black contrast to the orange. The robust nature is exactly what you want on a Thing. After all, these were built for strong utility with a fold-down windshield, interchangeable doors, and ribbed body panels for extra strength. So we really do love these for combining the fun nature of the Beetle with the go-anywhere style of a Jeep. The tan folding roof has a high-quality look to it, and that's part of this car's secret charm. There was a nice investment during the restoration for getting many of the major components from the legendary The Thing Shop. So you have pieces like the folding top and plexiglas side curtains that look great and fit exceptionally well. And when you take down the roof you're going to see a fresh interior upholstered in the same color as the roof. 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. Plus, there's something quite cool you don't see on too many Things anymore. There was a special heater developed for these that still has all its major components in place. It's this kind of detail-oriented package that VW people will love point out. And this one really is complete, right down to the tool kit. Another place to show off on this one is the engine bay. This motor was rebuilt during the restoration, and you're going to be hard-pressed to find a cleaner example out there. In fact, take a look at the undercarriage photos, where you see the kind of clean and complete suspension that you'll probably put a mirror under it at car shows. While this one looks beautiful, right down to the mufflers, you also should never be afraid of driving it. Because this shares many of its components with the Beetle, you know the 1600cc motor is a robust powerplant that will be easy to keep in top condition for years to come. This an exceptional example of a rare and cool cruiser. So if the ultimate Thing is your thing, don't miss this classic. Call now!

MILEAGES: Occasionally our vehicles may be driven or simply moved around our facilities. Slight differences may occur so we recommend you confirm actual and current miles prior to purchase. CONDITION: We cover the obvious and do our best to describe our vehicles in detail. Even so, please have a transparent conversation with us before purchasing. Do be aware that all pre-owned vehicles, regardless of age, mileage, or manufacturer are subject to cosmetic wear and mechanical failure. Finally, be advised that although our sales associates are here to assist you with your purchase, they are not trained or certified vehicle inspectors. AS-IS: All vehicles are sold "AS IS" and with no warranties expressed or implied.

DISCLAIMER: This site and all advertising information may be updated without notice whenever new information is obtained and may contain mistakes and inaccuracies. Information is provided to the best of our knowledge and we make no warranty or representation regarding the accuracy, truth, or reliability of such information. We cannot be responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies contained in information provided by the consignor/seller of the vehicle. We strive to perform extensive visual inspections on all vehicles we represent but we do not disassemble vehicles or components for inspection purposes and therefore it is always possible that there is hidden damage that is not readily apparent. All vehicles are sold AS-IS with no warranties expressed or implied. Terms & Conditions We recognize the need for complete transparency when buying/selling vehicles on eBay. That said, we did not build, modify, or have the luxury of personal ownership that would give us the advantage of knowing all unknown aspects of each vehicle. Transparency is king and we're happy to try and answer ALL questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we welcome and encourage independent inspections (see Inspection statement below). FEES: A documentation fee of $199 will be added to the purchase price at the time of sale. Sale price does not include any Title, License, Registration, State or Local Taxes or Processing Fees. We recommend you familiarize yourself with your individual state's taxes, transfer, or additional fees. AVAILABILITY: Please inquire prior to purchase to assure any advertised vehicle is not already sold. We advertise across multiple platforms where a vehicle can sell in a moment's notice. Vehicles may be sold prior to eBay listing end, and we reserve the right to end listings early or to cancel bids/offers solely at our discretion and shall not be held liable for any such cancellation. CONTACT: Note that you may hear from us after to the sale, but if you are a winning bidder, click a Buy-It-Now, or we accept your eBay Offer, it is your responsibility to contact us within 24 hours. INSPECTION: VERY IMPORTANT. If a buyer chooses to buy sight unseen (many of our buyers choose this option) the buyer accepts the vehicle AS-IS and understands we cannot address concerns post sale. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer/buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale. PAYMENT: We require a non-refundable $500 deposit within 48 hours of winning or commitment to purchase. Full payment is required within 7 days of offer acceptance unless other arrangements are agreed to in writing. If deposit and/or full payment are not provided within said timeframe, all vehicles will be relisted and transaction will be considered void. For balance of payment we will accept bank wire transfer (preferred), cashier's check, or personal check (vehicle shipment will be delayed until check clears).We also offer vehicle financing, please inquire for details prior to making bids/offers. SHIPPING: We have access to a network of private and commercial carriers. Most of them can deliver the vehicle to your driveway and upon your schedule. We assume no responsibility for damages or delays incurred once a vehicle is in a shipper's custody. Buyers are welcomed to trailer vehicles home and we are happy to have everything ready to see you off with your new vehicle. DRIVE IT HOME: If you plan to buy and drive home, please keep some things in mind. Anything is possible when it comes to a vehicle, especially a classic or antique one. We recommend transporting all vehicles to your home first, then driving it locally. Get to know the vehicle and its tendencies before embarking on a long-distance trip. If you choose to drive your new vehicle home, buyer accepts all responsibility as we are unable to control what may take place once it leaves our facility. DOCUMENTS & VEHICLE TITLE: All purchase documents are sent immediately upon purchase. To avoid delays, we recommend returning any required documents within 24 hours of receipt. Please allow up to 30 days for vehicle titles. Usually titles are available sooner, we ask for the extra time in the event there are unforeseen circumstances. VIN VERIFICATION: We photograph the primary VIN location of every vehicle and make sure that VIN exactly matches the vehicle's current title.
