Hi Don! Thanks for the link to the “thing” or Kubelwagen. This particular vehicle is some sort of a kit car body with MANY parts from a VW including windows, seats, etc. But the frame, axles, engine were definitely VW. Yup….. I crawled around under it quite a bit. (Once a VW mechanic, always a VW mechanic) Curious little car.

It’s not a Volkswagen, although it resembles a VW type 181 or Thing as they were called. Info here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_181
