Vehicle Detail
This is a very doable restoration project. It does run well, and drives out great. However the aesthetically, it does need some TLC. This beautiful Karmann Ghia was purchased with intent to restore. It has been garage kept for 14+ years. We have managed to purchase or trade for many of its original parts, as far as I know. We do not get it out much, but when we do it fires right up! The original color of this Ghia was green. though we elected have the exterior painted black about 15 years ago. The exterior does need a good buff job. The current roof color is white, however we did purchase a new black roof, but never had it installed. We did put new carpet in, but it is in need again. The dash is showing some age as well. The odometer reads 79,598, but is currently not working. The rear bumper has a ding, and a rust spot. The floorboards appears to be in good shape, and feel solid. The underside is rusted, but no holes. Ultimately, this restore would require new carpet, roof install, some hardware install, a few wires connected, and a buff job. It you have the love and the know how, should be a pretty quick turn around! As much as we love Ghia, we just do not have the time to truly enjoy. We are hoping another enthusiast will be able to bring her back to her glory! Happy bidding! Please feel free to contact us with any questions!
