1971 VW Karmann Ghia Convertible--needs work!!

Description

Stalled project. Took car to body shop for rust repair, where lights, trim etc were removed for eventual painting and problem areas under doors were cut back for welding-in of replacement parts. Then I ended up buying another Ghia, so this one is up for sale. Condition: EVERYTHING under both doors is shot; it's Swiss cheese. Area under the nose has problems too. Sanding of doors revealed bondo there. Good canvas top with glass rear window. Good BRM wheels and tires. Tranny fine. Previous owner put in a full set of 1980's VDO gauges; I've only ever used the speedo (which reads 15% fast), tach, voltmeter and fuel, so don't know if oil pressure, oil temp and cylinder head temp gauges work. Engine is out of car and complete (all tin, etc.) except for generator and carbs, which I've used for another engine. All the removed parts--door handles, trim, lights, etc--are in boxes. Most of them could use new seals. Has bumpers with overriders; there's rust/chrome flaking on left part of front bumper and spots of rust on two of the metal "bumps" on the bumpers. I'm sure the odometer has rolled a couple of times. Sold as is. Will look into shipping if someone wants. This was a FUN little car, and got lots of friendly waves, until I got the bright idea to start messing with it in July. Great project for someone with welding skills and a recent tetanus shot!
