FS: 1967 VW Sports Car
Subject: FS: 1967 Karmann Ghia
This is a 1967 VW Karmann Ghia coupe. It is newly restored, new paint, very reliable, and beautiful. I took the unibody off the frame to restore, everything is clean. Through the restoration I touched EVERYTHING on the car. body, frame, new paint, new wiring harness, new glass, new carpet, new tires, new brake system (brake lines, calipers, wheel cylinders), whole new front end, new shocks, and MANY other parts all new. It has a new 1600cc engine in it installed this month. The new engine has less than 100 miles on it. I am only selling because I have found another classic car (actually a truck) to restore and am hoping to sell the Ghia to finance that project. If you are interested at all I hope you will click this link to see some pictures. <http://homepage.mac.com/neelyhouse/Ghia/PhotoAlbum12.html> 1967 was the perfect year for the Karmann Ghia. -It is the 1st year for the 12 volt electrical system (so you can put a modern stereo or charge your cell phone in it) -It is the 1st year for front disk brakes. -It is the last year that had the beautiful slim parking lights. In 1968 they changed the style to the more boxy lights of the 70's cars. -It is the last year that the gas fill up tube/cap is still under the front hood. You have to pop the hood to fill up with gas. This is a very rare car in great condition. It has been garage kept ever since the restoration. If you are interested, please call me at home, I'd love to show off the car. Stephen Neely 412-916-3309 Pittsburgh, PA note: this is an antique which means that if you get an antique license plate for it, you will never need to pay for inspection or emissions ever again. and if you get antique auto insurance for it, you could be crusing around town in your new sporty little car for about $100 a year (yes, a year) in insurance. at these rates you will be able to afford to put the high octane gas in the tank. |

Nice job! You shouldn't have too much trouble selling it. Is the truck Air Cooled too? |

The "beautiful slim parking lights" comment is dead wrong. 1968 and
1969 Ghias had the same style as '67. For the 1970 model, Ghias got the bigger front lights and also tail lights.
