Copied from Wikipedia-The Volkswagen Type 181 "Kurierwagen", popularly known in the United Kingdom as the Trekker, in the United States as the Thing, and in Mexico as the Safari, was a small military vehicle produced by Volkswagen from 1969 to 1983, although civilian sales stopped in 1980. It was based in part on Volkswagen's Type 1 (Beetle), and was a continuation and improvement over the Kübelwagen, which had been used by the German military during World War II. The name Kübelwagen is an abbreviation of Kübelsitzwagen, meaning "bucket-seat car". At the time, the term was coined to refer to a whole category of off-roaders with extra-deep bucket seats to make up for the lack of doors.
MARSHALL MOTOART has put a spin on the Thing and plans to use it in the summer to carry Tubes to the river to go tubing!
