WOW
Nice rides in there guys ! Mine is not finished yet - it is having the motor rebuilt. It is a project that Dad and I have been working on (his car since new). He smashed it in 1975 and we started to restore it 4 years ago. Nearing the finish line - More photos later (maybe even a restore thread) !
It is a 1962 VW Karmann Ghia. Dad picked it off the Assembly line, Drove it from Germany to Italy and had it shipped out to Australia in 1962.
Just to give you an idea - The rubbers and seals ALONE cost US$1500.
Dad MADE the carpets to original specs. They are no longer available. The nose badge alone is NOS and cost US$96.
Should be finished next month !
Nino, that VW looks absouletly pristine...what a great looking car. Must admit I dont think I have seen one before. Are there many around or are they rare?
