thanks,
shame we couldnt keep the ghia, my wife suz loved that car.
had to sell it when we moved from cambridge to sweden, we needed the money.
funny thing was when I sold the car, the guy who brought the ghia (a dj from brighton) asked me where the water went? honestly! so I explained a few basics and gave him a guide to the vw aircooled engine.
I think he was a little embarassed as his first question had showed that he knew nothing !
I guess he knows a lot more now, hopefully that ghia got into his blood, and I hope he still has it, I remember it used to pull really well, and I loved to chuck it in to corners, and accelerate out- felt goodjavascript:emoticon('')
would like to know if anyone has seen it around ?

Hey,thats quite a nice stable u got there.That reeminds me of my first bus. a nice '76 green/white microbus,then came my '77 westy,then my '71 westy, then another '70 westy (both white) ,a rotten '67 13 windows (hence my name) and then later
on my beloved '68 tin-top riviera (i think) that i drove all the way from Las Vegas to Miami (by myself) .Then came my 100% original '59 rag top bug that then again i dove from the mountains of Colorado back home to Miami.Scary trip.but fun.
Now i am working on my bus to get it ready for my big trip to Los Angeles.Where it originally came from.
