Equipment
1835/75hp twin carb engine, steel wheels, modern stereo.
Condition
Good truck quality paint with a handful of light scratches. Faded, worn top. Some dull brightwork and dry gaskets. The Plating on the VW badge is flaking off. Clean and restored underneath. Decent interior. With the upgraded engine and flawed but attractive cosmetics, this is an Acapulco Thing that one wouldn't be afraid to load up with family and take to the beach.
Market commentary
Then again, it's a bit pricy for beach duty at this number. The Acapulco colors and the more powerful engine in this one are apparently a tempting combination, though, because it also sold at Gooding Amelia Island in 2015 for the similar sum of $52,800 and it has added 976 miles to the odometer since then.
