Vehicle Detail
1973 KARMANN GHIA 2 DOOR COUPE ORIGINAL SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA RUST FREE GHIA ORIGINAL ORANGE COLOR EXTERIOR BLACK INTERIOR ALWAYS SERVICED AND MAINTAINED NEVER IN AN ACCIDENT Up for auction is this VERY ORIGINAL 1973 Karmann Ghia. This is the second to last year that these vehicles were produced. This vehicle has always been in Southern California from day one and has been with this current owner for the past 20+ years. She is completely original and has been painted only once since new. She belonged to an older lady who is unfortunately now unable to drive her anymore. She was always serviced by the same mechanic for the past 15+ years. The lady owned multiple Karmann Ghia but this was her beloved daily driver. There are several pictures of this vehicle shown in this ad, please take your time and inspect all of them carefully. If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask us directly. We will gladly accept any request for a personal inspection of this Ghia. She has been sitting in this state for the past few years but it has been kept current with the registration. Below is a link to many pics of this Ghia 73 Karmann Ghia The engine runs smooth as depicted by the video within this ad and it’s not tired or in need of a rebuilt. She could use a tune up and some minor refreshing. The vehicle does not smoke, or produce any odors that would indicated this vehicle needs extensive mechanical attention. The transmission, a 4 speed that is similar to that of the beetle, shifts perfectly with no issues. The vehicle drives smoothly and has Centerline wheels and over 75% tread left on the tires. The interior definitely needs refreshing, but all components of the interior are there and complete. With just an interior refresh, this vehicle could be a BEAUTIFUL Ghia that will turn heads and also a functional daily driver that will keep appreciating day after day.
