| Volkswagen Karmann Ghia . For sale, sitting in my garage is my beautiful 1968 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. The Karmann Ghia has always been something of a cult car. Collectors all over the world appreciate the amazing look of its timeless Italian design, combined with the typical Volkswagen toughness.The Karmann Ghia was a sports car offered by Volkswagen. The Karmann Ghia combined the chassis and and drive train of the Volkswagen Beetle with the Italian styling of Carrozzeria Ghia and hand-built bodywork by the German coach-builder Karmann. This particular 1968 Karmann Ghia starts quickly, runs great, drives like a sports car, and stops quickly. The original build and body work has withstood the test of time with flying colors. The rebuilt engine in this VW runs as you would expect a piece of German engineering would! This engine is paired with a manual 4-speed transmission that shifts very smoothly through the gears. The exterior paint looks great. The interior of the car sports the 2+2 arrangement that the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia is known for. This car is an excellent investment that you can enjoy daily. Collectible vintage vehicles have historically appreciated at a rate greater than that stock market, gold and other arts and collectibles as documented by many articles and auction result tracking. Especially now.I have swapped out the stock steering wheel, shifter, and air filter assembly, but I have all the original parts that I will send all along.
