| CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER | |
|---|---|
| This is a numbers-matching Low Light Karmann Ghia in its original color of L345 Cardinal Red. This car is in remarkably fine condition. The Stiftung AutoMuseum Volkswagen Zertifikat (VW birth certificate) shown in the pictures comes with the car. The certificate and letter from the Museum confirm that it retains its original paint color and 36 hp engine. This beautiful Ghia was built on March 18, 1958, equipped with M355 US-Equipment and M128 White Wall Tires. BODY / CHASSIS: I have never seen a Low Light with a body and undercarriage as nice as this. I was told that the body has never been off the chassis, and that the floors, body, nose, trunk, etc. are original and have never had any notable damage or rust. The doors, hood, and trunk lid are in outstanding alignment. One of the pictures shows the inside of the nose (which still has its original paint,) and you can see how pure it is. This car received a body-on restoration approximately ten years ago and has been driven less than 90 miles since. About the only notable flaws I found are a few dings in the metal trim around the windshield and rear window (these trim pieces could be replaced or re-chromed by the next owner if desired.) MECHANICAL: This classic Volkswagen runs and drives beautifully. The tire tread looks nearly new, but the tires are probably about ten years old. The steering and suspension feel excellent. The engine has a 30 PICT carburetor installed, but the original 28 PCI is included if you want to rebuild it. GAUGES / ELECTRICAL: This Ghia retains its original 6-volt system. The gauges, odometer/speedometer, lights, electrical, etc. all work excellent except that the clock is not working. The AM radio turns on and the knobs and buttons work properly, but there is no antenna installed so I can’t get it to tune in any stations. The odometer currently reads 18,114, but I don’t have records to determine the actual mileage. It is sold mileage exempt because of the age. Please feel free to contact me through eBay, or by phone or text at (352) 283-0268, if you would like additional information or would like to see it in person. PAPERWORK AND DEALER FEE: I am a long-time classic car hobbyist and a licensed Florida car dealer (Classic Investment Motorcars Inc.) This means that you will be required complete the sales and title transfer forms with us, which can be done in person, by email, or through the mail. We charge a flat fee of $100 to cover paperwork, documentation, postage, and other costs. This fee cannot be waived and applies regardless of whether you are an individual or a dealer. SALES TAX: If you live in Florida or want to pick up the car in Florida, we are required to collect the applicable sales tax and tag/title fees. I am not required to collect the sales tax if the vehicle is shipped out of Florida by commercial car carrier (you will take care of that where you live.) DEPOSIT AND PAYMENT: A $500 non-refundable PayPal deposit is due within 24 hours of the end of the auction or buy-it-now purchase. The balance must be paid by cash, cashier’s check, or wire transfer within seven days of the end of the auction. All cashier’s checks must clear my bank before the vehicle can be released. If the winning buyer fails to pay in accordance with these requirements, we may, at our option, make second chance offers or re-list/remarket the vehicle and the deposit will be forfeited. SHIPPING: Arranging and paying for shipping is the responsibility of the winning bidder/buyer. We will do our best to cooperate with your shipping company, domestic or international. We may also be able to help you arrange shipping at a reasonable rate, but the responsibility ultimately remains with you. THIS VEHICLE IS BEING SOLD AS-IS, WHERE-IS, WITH NO WARRANTY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. As with any used car, there may be wear and minor imperfections consistent with the mileage. The odometer reading is as of the listing date but might be higher at the time of sale due to test drives. Please feel free to inspect the car in person or have it inspected by a reputable third-party inspection service. Please bid or make an offer only if you are serious and can complete the purchase. If you are the winning bidder/buyer, you will have entered a binding contract to complete the purchase. The sale location is Bell, Florida, Florida law governs, and venue lies exclusively in Gilchrist County, Florida. | |
