1969 VW Karmann Ghia Exceptional Modified for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.1) based on 553 votes

Fantastic Karmann Ghia but not for the purists. Car was imported from California in 1995 and has all original panels and as far I can see no welding (or it has been done very well and hidden).

Original dealer was Ballard Motors. Anaheim. California. Has original owners handbook and UK service history with 3 previous owners in the UK.

I did not do the engine conversion so might not be able to answer questions about how it was done.

Full black leather custom interior with early Recaro seats. Original Grundig radio and early Porsche 914 instruments. Tri Clops P700 halogen headlamps.

GT Gaz adjustable chock absorbers. new discs and calipers. BRM wheels with four good Michelin tyres.

The engine is from a Subaru with decat stainless Imprezza manifolds and a Stainless steel exhaust. Apparently fitted with a Viper cold air induction system.

Fitted with a heavy duty clutch and a tall ratio IRS gearbox.

Just been to Bristol and back on the hottest day of the year so far and didn't show any signs of overheating. including an hour of heavy traffic in Bristol centre (!)

Apparently 0-60 in approx. 5. 2s and 1/4 mile in 13. 85s. I assume it has had a run at Santa Pod.

It is superb to drive. feels quick and gets a lot of people photographing it.

Not really that sure I want to sell it but could be persuaded for the right money.
