Jim’s 74 Thing shows so much school spirit! This is the quintessential tailgating ride. Fully equipped with AstroTurf, an eight track player and all the UF swag anyone could ask for. I’m sure that this thing will chomp all the competition!

Thanks for writing Scott! I will definitely try to keep up the good work on this site! Your father is awesome! Spread the word about his video.
I have known Jim for many years. He tried fishing and hunting as a Hobby. But, failed resentlessly. He drowned his sorrows drinking Old Milwallkee Beer and found out he is better at building Ice Chest Race Go Carts and now a VW Thang. Looks like he found his Nich in Life. Keep up the good work ole timer.
Wish we had been there! Can’t beat the ole swamp thing it has a good owner and he takes the best care of it. Congrats Jim you are unbeatable.
HI STEPHEN, GREAT JOB AND GREAT WEBSITE. MY SON SCOTT IN IN MISAWA, JAPAN AND NOW HAS EVERYONE IN JAPAN GLUED TO YOUR SITE.
NOW I NEED TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT, MY BUDDY (AND ADOPTED BROTHER) IN GAINESVILLE IS JIMMY HYLTON A WELL KNOWN STREET ROD BUILDER FOR 40 YEARS. I DID MY BODY WORK AND TOOK MY THING TO HIM READY TO PAINT..WELL I COULD NEVER GET IT GOOD ENOUGH FOR HIM..SO AFTER PRIMING AND SANDING FOR DAYS, HE PUT THE BEAUTIFUL PAINT JOB ON IT. HE CAN CHOP/DROP AND PAINT VW’S AS WELL AS ALL INTERIOR AND IF YOU WANT A V-8 IN YOUR BUG, HE’LL DO THAT TOO. THANKS FOR A GREAT WEBSITE…JIM
Creating and establishing a plaything for all Things to be judged, the “SWAMP THING” is the nicest Thing I have ever theen and I’ve theen a lot of Things in my life. The handsewn bimini covering your thing, your football field carpeting, your chromed out enging and flawless orange and blue painting is thimply intoxicating! GO GATORS!
