Hello Everyone, I am just getting back into VW's after a 15 year hiatus that was dominated by motorcycles. I had a 75 beetle and 73 camper in high school and college. I recently bought a project 1974 Thing that was sitting for more than 25 years and will be rebuilding it and looking for parts. Hope to see you on the road. Dan Attachments:

Welcome.
Is that original paint? You don't see many original green Things. I had one in the 90's. I just bought another Thing last fall. It's ratty but runs well.

Thanks for the replies guys. As far as I can tell it is the original paint, and it appears that it spent most of its time in Mexico and California. It was missing the engine and transmission, but I now have those. I am looking for original wheels, door handles, mirrors, rear seat, and axles (drive shaft from transmission).
