I wondered what this VW was really called.! (In toy cars ..Johnny Lightning..call this a VW 'Thing' .!!) :)

It was the US nickname I guess, like "Beetle" for the Typ 1.

Interesting... so we should rename the 181 used in US movies. But on the other hand, Beetle was also used as official name at a time I guess?

Interesting, there is not the forefather of this model (Kdf Kübelwagen) on this page?

I've never seen wipers that are connected by a bar before.
