I've had a 74 ghia convertible sitting in my back yard for a decade or two. bought it long time ago, got it running, replaced floor, had it blasted and primed and then parked it behind the house and never messed with it again. I've been trying to give it away for the last couple years or so but it still sits there next to the 74 Thing that's been there just as long. the ghia and thing have been sitting behind the house so long, a 12-15ft tree has grown up thru the rear deck of the Thing. can't find anyone that wants them and rather than sell them for scrap iron I've been thinking..
I have a t bucket frame that's too short for my 28 model A project . I've got a couple 283 and 350 sbc sitting around.. I just might do some cutting and chopping on the ghia body and make myself a new toy. .. kind of like this VW beetle
