Facts about the model

Rare VW model, modern successor to the famous Kubelwagen jeep that was manufactured in the 40's. This car model became giant in California in the early 70's. Perfect for driving on the beach with surfboard set on the stern. Built only from 1968 until 1974.
New 1600cc engine 2012, with dual Weber carburettor. The car came to Sweden in 2012. Has only had an owner in the United States and has been in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles and always stayed indoors when not used.
Today there are few that have never been rusty. This has been in a sunny climate and is carousel in untouched unique original style. Called in the United States for VW-Thing.
