Vehicle Detail
1973 Volkswagen "Thing" 9100 miles, rust free ! Selling NO RESERVE! This Thing was owned by famed Newport Beach, CA Volkswagen dealer Chip Iverson from new until his entire car collection was sold to Loren Pearson in 1996 where it lived in the West Coast Metric museum until sold in 2001. It was painted like this when new to celebrate Chick's best friend John Wayne's Album of poetry called "America, Why I Love Her" (Google it) The album came out in 1973 to rave reviews, so Chick had this "Thing" painted like this as a tie in to the success of the Album, it was on the Showroom of Chick Iverson VW in Newport Beach, California and was used in several parades. Because it has seen so little use, it is in pretty amazing condition for its age! Comes with original window sticker, original keys with metal number tags, original owners manual and original Marine arrival survey showing delivery to Chick Iverson Inc Newport Beach, CA on 8/1973 Runs and drive great and everything works I am selling for a friend Questions?
