Would you like to see my thing? All fun aside this is one great VW Thing. It was owned by an older gentlemen who had been in the hobby for years. this was his last and best thing. The body is rock solid and hard to find one that has not been all rotted out. I took pictures of all the areas that these things rust out. No signs anywhere. As far as we know it has spent its life in the high dessert climate of Southwest Idaho. The paint shows well and still shines and looks mostly original. It does show some chips and scracthes but looks great rolling down the road. It is a driver! I think its better to be able to drive your thing than to wipe it with a towel all day. The interior is in nice shape. The seats have no rips and the dash is in great shape. All the electrical seems to work except the radio? The top is new and not shown in the pictures are new side curtains. The 1600 engine starts right up with no smoke or weird noises. The 4 speed trans shifts smooth and the clutch is tight. It steers well and stops well. The odometer reads 50237 which the previous owner said was original but without any paperwork we will let you make that call. It does drive and handle like a low mileage thing. The bright yellow paint rolling on stock wheels with chrome VW hupcaps cant help not to put a smile on your face! Please pay close attention to all of the photos they will answer most all of your quetions.
