1974 Karmann Ghia for sale

Friend of a friend selling, car is in SoCal, I have some pictures but have not seen the car myself... if you are interested PM or email me and I will sent you the guys phone number.


Included:

No accident report, clean title, sole owner, third owner (all adults), daily driver, non-smoked, 90-97% bondo/rust-free, garaged, nose unmolested/undamaged.
All original: Body, motor, transmission, bumpers, etc.
Not original: Dual Solex carbs, Empi wheels, radio, 2-stage off white exterior paint job covering over original factory orange, rear luggage rack.

Upgraded:

(Over the last three years of the eight years of my ownership), $3000 into a complete motor rebuild, 1600 dual port motor - with dual Solex carbs, dual sports exhaust, new battery, new alternator, new window tint, fresh paint job, new interior carpet and upholstery, set of new radial tires, luggage rack, nose bra, set of Empi 8-spoke sport wheels.

Drivability:

A pleasure to drive - car drives straight, even wear on tires. No vibration in leather-wrapped steering wheel. Motor is strong, responsive. Burns/drips no oil, idles right down at stop lights, no backfiring. Shifts like butter, smooth and easy - no grinding, syncros into first gear easily. Drum and disc brakes safe and sure. Rock-solid investment. Reliable. Economical. Fun to drive. No surprises.

Asking $12,500.


Yes I will post on samba but thought I would throw it out here (this came up while we were watching the duck game... "oh, so and so's boyfriend is selling his Ghia.")
