1973 VW Karmin Ghia Convertible Nice running car with 75,000+ original miles. There are 2 sets of 5 wheels. The spare for the custom wheel is in the trunk. The top is in good condition with a inch u-shape cut in the rear corner -- was repaired and not so noticeable. In the past year all new brake system, new fuel tank, and paint. If you look carefully the painters did not paint the liscense plate light. It is still original. Minor but there. The interior is in good original shape. The front and rear seats are nice and clean--no wear or rips of any kind. The carpet was replaced new this year. The dash top is good condition with no crack. The dash facial has a small crack in the vinyl. A replacement front is about $130 but is minor and not needing replacement--personal preference. The door panels are OK. The driver door panel front bottom is worn ... the particle wood backing is deteriorated and the elastic band on each door pocket is sagging. Otherwise, these are fine. Passenger door outer window scraper is missing Brand new door panels here on Ebay are $120 for the pair. The tires are like new. It's a dual port 1600cc engine. It rides nicely at 75 mph and has a great VW sound. It is not concourse by any means but a nice looking and running Karmin Ghia Convertible. This is the second to last year of production. If you have questions, please email in3 outs @ hotmail.com five 6170313sixfive If you like it now, $7500.00 it is a fair price for all the maintenance completed on it this past year. PayPal is only excepted as a deposit of $250, remaining funds must clear before delivery. Thank you and be ready for spring!On Mar-25-13 at 21:24:58 PDT, seller added the following information: The interior is clean unfortunately the photo shown was taken on a day we went out to a park. The floors have custom rubber matts --not in photos but included. More photos will be taken and upload or can be email on request. New parts purchased but not listed is a new carb rebuild kit.....this car is taken from storage. The fuel tank is 2 years old but had fuel in it when stored. It was clean once but needs to be cleaned again as the clear glass fuel filter is getting brown fuel--shop states there is still deposit from the old fuel. It can still be run until clean but a tank cleaning will resolve this issue quickly and the carb kit should be installed at the same time. It runs fine now but recommend tank cleaning. 2 new replacement window cranks are also included. Brakes well,as it should form new brakes, and hand brake lever works fine. Engine is strong, clutch was replaced, transmission works properly (no clicking or jumping out of gear), and brakes new-- all within 12 months. The radio is original -- currently intermintent so is the clock. Shop states grounds need to be cleaned. There are 2 small plastic grommets / clips that hold the end of the sun visor in place are broken but works OK still-- I think its $10 for this item. Lastly the factory cardboard glovebox is torn were the hood lever is rivet to it. I believe that is $40 here on Ebay. This Ghia just needs to be driven--not sitting. Good luck bidding or it is $7500 BUY IT NOW. Let us know. We are selling this car locally and not looking to get maximum dollar as there are minor issues mentioned. We end this item last listing as we were not available. It is now listed locally so a serious will buy this car and I reserve the right to end this auction should a buyer, local or otherwise, makes the purchase. Thank you for your interest.

Once a bid is made, it is a binding contract. Also, the winner does not test drive the vehicle after the auction. Please do all diligence and own a nice car. It is expensive to list and time consuming. There are 2 dozen photos and details are meant to deter non serious bidders. Nearly 40 years old car, there are no warranty express of any kind. SOLD IN AS IS condition. Call with any questions.....hence you must read the ad :) Subjective, looks good. Objective, mechanically sound. Bid accordingly.On Mar-29-13 at 10:27:21 PDT, seller added the following information:561-703-1365cell
