Vehicle Detail

1970 VOLKSWAGEN KARMANN GHIA Up for sale is a 1970 VOLKSWAGEN KARMANN GHIA in excellent restored condition! This car had a ground up restoration five years ago around 44,200 miles and has only been driven about 500 miles since the restoration! It has been painted to match its original color, which we believe was called Yukon Yellow. It has a 4 speed manual transmission with its original 4 cylinder engine. The engine had a valve and ring job at the time of restoration which is why it is advertised as 500 miles. The current odometer reading is 44,734 as shown. Based on the parts and service receipts that were available, this car had over $5,000 put into the restoration! The car was inherited which is why it is for sale. The seller believes that this is a two, possibly three owner car (not counting the family member who recently inherited it – he has not used it except for periodic starts and a few short drives to keep it mechanically fresh). There is the original service booklet from the first owner with records up to 42,000 miles and the car was restored only 2,000 miles later. The last owner had the car for about 10 years. Some of the major replacements include: Paint Front end / ball joints / axle Shocks Tires Floor Pans and Carpet Front disc brakes, pads and lines Front and rear bumper Windshield and rear glass Various trim, molding, electrical Gas tank Exhaust The car has a couple tiny paint chips. One is over the right headlight and another near the left tail light. There are also a couple tiny paint imperfections under the front right grille and a spot on the left rear fender. We also found a small amount of molding wear on the right rear window and some tiny black spots on the passenger window outside chrome molding. These can all be seen at the last five pictures below. The only other note is that the hood appears to be raised a little as shown in the picture. The seller believes this is because it is hitting the spare tire and it may need a minor adjustment. A lot of time and money went into making this Karmann Ghia like new and unfortunately it has spent much of the last five years in storage. Don’t miss out on the chance to own this Karmann Ghia ready to drive the day you pick it up! The buyer is responsible for tax, title and licensing in their respective state.
