Finally received my original Military Thing Seats from Germany, 1st guy I was buying from tried keeping money and not sending seats, People follow Paypal rules they will save your butt, was able to get my money back, and was able to find another set, worked out real well, and probably cheaper than the other guy I bought from. Very happy with seats, have original Olive Green covers, and Pull handle for seats to recline. Plus showing my Bonus License Plates I received from seller, and pics of my Generator 38amp 14V.

They look great. 
The one with the recliner system should be on the right side. 
The plates look civilian ones to me... The "D" is for the country and the military ones should be without the "euro look" like that ones... Should have an "Y" and a group of six digits...
But cool for the shows at the same...

I made this sticker for the license plate on my Thing (it's not a correct military plate, just a civilian one, but the sticker looks pretty cool, I think). Send me a PM if you want one and I'll send you one.

Never really noticed that, I am going to have to look. I did score the set of Military fenders that were for sale on here awhile ago. If I ever repaint will have to put them on.

I just took delivery of this car and I am going to have questions. Better to recount third owners documentation than to start from scratch. Tomorrow I will see what I have and make notes. Gotta get the brake lights going and fix the reclining seat...new mechanism...no bolts or instructions...I got this...help!

I went to visit Rev Scott at Booneville in my Thingster, He had bought a good Thing Shoop top and we made a deal on the camouflaged top that was on his new Military Thing,
Here I am at the Golden Gate Chapter Pumpkin run with the camo top on.
BTW Lcky VW is Roger Nang's Thing
