1966 Karmann Ghia
History


 

Bought as a wedding present for Kirstie. 
It's a RHD South African Import that's been resprayed at some point in silver but has weathered a lot since. 
Mainly it's all there apart from a couple of bits of '66 only dash trim (typical!)
Condition wise it's  scruffy but fairly sound (it looks a lot better in the pics than real life)
Tyres were completely bald & the importer told me the owner tried to persuade him to give him the tyres back as they were good! In typical south African style the tie rod ends were worn out so were a couple of ball joints; the headlights were different and it had some ugly lucas lenses on the indicators.
A full nut & bolt resto will be done in a few years when I get time. Meanwhile it's a rolling resto
