1974 Volkswagen Thing (lime/Tan)

Price: US $20,000.00 SOLD OUT

Body All original metal body disassembled, sanded down to metal, and two stage paint /clear applied using the new Jeep lime green (my wife calls it chartreuse),  Interior floors where textured (bed liner stuff) then color applied over that.  Nothing left out, including trunk, motor compartment, dash, doors, windshield, etc.  All was disassembled and painted correctly.  Completely replaced all seals and rubber on car. Interior Original seats with new padding and custom covers, front and back.  Coco mats used on floors front and back.  All gauges and lighting work.  New top installed on fresh black painted frame. I didn't install a radio, left that up to new owners preference.  But I did install a dealer option radio face plate under the dash which I found. Engine The engine and transmission were in great shape, so I didn't rebuild.  I had the engine stripped to the cases and cleaned, and powder coated trim metal black.  Then reassembled using all new seals, gaskets, and screw kit.  All transmission needed was new front seal.  New axle boots and engine seal to body.  Used original oil bath air cleaner with new hoses.  And installed the original style muffler with pipes coming through bumper (more expensive option but correct). All new brakes, ball joints, tie rods, and shocks.  Tires were good and original moon hubcaps. Starts, runs and drives great.   Steering got a little tight after ball joints were installed and mechanic says it just needs to be driven a little bit to loosen them up. All receipts and detailed itemized excel spread sheet go with car, and add up to $15,077 spent (excluding my time).  So that's the start price.  Bid with confidence, I am a 100% positive seller!! Mike  Note: I think I have a clear title but cant find it.  If I cant find in I will be selling using a Bill of Sale which is normal for these older cars in GA.  Car is currently tagged and has current registration. Bonus: I have a very nice roll bar that goes with call, just liked it without it so didn't install yet.
