I turned down a $1500(canadian metric dollars) Karmann Ghia.......I have chosen wisely.

Jesus, what? How on earth is a Ghia that nice that cheap? That’d be a $13k car around here!

It’s not a good candidate. “runs and drives” but is a parts car. trust me.

probably would, it’s got a whole body/floor pop riveted over the original. ever done bodywork on one of these? no seams, it doesn’t have fenders all leadwork done by ghia.

No - surprising to me that there wouldn’t be $1,500 worth of stuff you could get off of it, at any rate, though—

yes but RUST all caps. would be cool to just drive around in but if taken apart would not go back together.

Coventry. More specifically, 70s Jaguar.

Ah, then it’s just a distraction that’s not worth monkeying around with. Hopefully whoever does buy this has their eyes open—

sold instantly, went to show a vw guy I know some pics, only to find it in his driveway. bought for sweet running motor and parts.
