Well, using my cell phone I managed to get a fairly decent quality image.
I spend most of my time on a VW enthusiast' site TheSamba.com :: Volkswagen Classifieds, photos, shows, forums, and information
I never had my ownership challenged but I suppose there are people that make claims that they really cannot back up.
To answer some questions;
The Karmann Ghia was purchased in 1996 as a basket case
We spent almost 10 years on the restoration. We ended up with what could be better described as a Resto-Mod.
I dreamed of this car from my childhood. If I could have ordered a Ghia straight from the factory this is how I would have wanted her.
The bodywork was handled by a Vw/Porsche specialist and was done on a rotiserie.
The seats were refinished by a shop that has many years of experience in Vw restorations.
I rebuilt the engine which is not original. It is a 1641cc with dual Del'orto 36mm carbs.
All new brakes. The suspention, electrical and all rubber seals and weather stripping was replaced. All the chrome was re-plated. I re-assembled her and installed wool squareweave carpet and a new headliner.
I put my soul into her as this is my favorite auto of all time. Probably put way to much $$'s into her but to me she is worth ever penny spent
