The Toy Barn isthrilled to offer this 1973 Volkswagen Thing, a one-of-a-kind custom with a full list of upgrades and modifications, and powered by a turbocharged Mazda rotary engine!This Thing is a recent addition to our inventory, and it's certainly like no other vehicle we've had here. Every corner of this Thing is custom and has been touched, with a bright yellow finish, tweed interior, custom suspension, and a Mazda 13b turbocharged Rotary engine. The suspension, brakes, wheels, tires, etc are all custom, as is the roll cage, and other aspects of this unique street/beach cruiser.Condition wise, this Thing presents itself very well. The yellow paint is glossy and shiny, the chrome wheels look very nice, and the overall exterior is very presentable; ready for a Friday night cruise in or Sunday cars and coffee. There is no outstanding damage or excessive wear, and overall the yellow looks really nice. Inside, the custom interior also presents itself well with no damaged areas or excessive wear. It's in great condition and really doesn't need anything to get in and go have fun.As for drivability, this Thing starts, runs, shifts, and drives just like you would expect a rotary powered, fully custom Thing to be. I'm happy to walk you through a full description if you'd like to give me a ring; I've spent quite a bit of time getting to know this VW. It is built to drive like a dune buggy and has developed a cult following, with prices running ever higher. Now is your chance to acquire one today, as this will not last!Call me if you'd like more details!(740)973-7978
