HI ALL. HERE WE HAVE A ORANGE 1973 VW THING. THIS CAN BE A GREAT SUMMER PROJECT OR DRIVEN AS IS, IT WILL NEED A SMALL AMOUNT OF WORK TO MAKE IT SAFE BECAUSE IT WAS STORED FOR SOME TIME AND NOW THE CARB HAS A SMALL LEAK AND THE BRAKES NOW FEEL SOFT. WE HAVE NEVER USED IT OFF-ROAD AND IS ALWAYS PARKED IN GARAGE. THE PAINT IS GOOD, PLEASE SEE ALL PIC'S, AND I HAVE BOTH FRONT DOORS AS WELL AS THE FOLDING FRAME FOR THE SOFT TOP. THE WIPERS AND BLINKERS BOTH QUIT WORKING YEARS AGO. HAVE PINK IN HAND. ENGINE RUNS GREAT BUT THE CARB LEAK NEEDS TO BE FIXED. IT WAS OUR MAIN FAMILY SUMMER CAR FOR YEARS AND WOULD ALWAYS START AND RUN GREAT BUT NOW KIDS ARE GROWN UP SO NOW IT JUST SITS. OVERALL THE CAR IS IN REALLY GOOD SHAPE. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS. SOLD AS IS WHERE IS. CAR IS ALSO LISTED LOCALLY. On Mar-13-12 at 19:59:06 PDT, seller added the following information: THE THING CAN BE TAKEN OUT FOR A TEST DRIVE, THE SMALL LEAK IN THE CARB IS SMALL ENOUGH NOT TO PREVENT THIS AND THE TAGS ARE STILL CURRENT. CALL IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO TEST DRIVE, I AM RETIRED SO ANY DAY BETWEEN 9AM AND 9PM IS OK.On Mar-14-12 at 10:09:30 PDT, seller added the following information: Hi all. I forgot to post a question on the listing. It was about the air cleaner, the air cleaner on the thing is off a VW bug. Hope this helps. Thanks for looking...
