1973 VW THING from Huntington Beach, alifornia in Wilmette Il for sale. This car was flat bedded to Illinois and was restored and is my daily driving car when it is not raining. She is garage kept and doesn't like wet or cold weather because she is a CA girl.She does however have a rare gas powered heater that is currently not hocked up.
She is being sold because I own 2 other vw's (the 74 vw bus gets the other garage spot). I love this car and will sell her if I get my price, hich is firm! If you are not a serious buyer please don't call.

If I keep her I will fix the speedometer. It is working but the needle is caught behind the peg and needs to be freed.
Last recorded mileage is 12,658
I have also purchased parts to repair the ball joints/ tie rods in the front end. I drive it everyday however it is a repair that will need to be done eventually.
