Vehicle Detail
This is a 1973 karmann Ghia Volkswagen that was traded in at a Dodge dealership here in North Alabama and whom we purchased it from.I will do my best to describe the car but by no means am I an expert on Volkswagens.The car was driven about 75 miles back after we purchased it with no problems other than it does not want to idle on its on when sitting still.This is not a show car and basically will need a FULL RESTORATION.It is missing the front door panels,headliner,rearview,rubber drivers door moulding,glove box button and door sill on drivers door.That is what we can see that is missing.The front seats are pretty much worn out and have seat covers on them,The back seat looks pretty good for its age.It has an aftermarket radio(works).The heat seems to work.The wipers work.The headlights,tail lights,dash lights work.I dont think fuel gauge is working.It looks to be missing a couple emblems on the body.All the glass is good.The motor runs but does not idle on its on,It also has oil residue on and around the engine,So basically you can probably count on an engine REBUILD also.The brakes seem to work good.The body overall seems to be pretty solid with very minimal rust,A few little bubble spots on lower panel and a couple small spots underneath(see pics).The bumpers look pretty good.The car is showing the mileage in the 20k range but have no way of knowing if it is 120k or 520k.We have the original owners manual,books and original invoice when purchased new in Texas.Also a box of what looks to be some door handle bezels and trim.The state of Alabama does not require Titles for this year model so it will come with tag receipt and a bill of sale only.So please make sure this is not a problem in your state.If you would like to come see the car(which I encouarge very highly) or have any questions please feel free ask and I will do my best to answer.The car is being Sold in AS IS condition and is located in North Alabama about 20 miles east of Huntsville.
