Besides working on my 74 LE, I keep hearing voices suggesting that a Karmann Ghia be added to my workload. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

I know less about Ghia's than I do about 914's..... any suggestions for really good Ghia related forums?

Thanks. Bud

When I was about to give up looking for a decent 914 in my price range I had a moment of weakness and started looking at Ghias instead.
Back in the day I owned a 69 Ghia and they are great fun cars, but '69 is really the best year!

No offense to anyone who owns or has loved earlier or later cars, but the 69 gives you the better looks of the early car (small bumpers and tail lights) with a true IRS instead of the at times dangerous swingarm rear suspension, along with 4 lug wheels and 4 wheel disc brakes.

These are important considerations if you are looking at performance mods or are going to drive it fast around corners!

Good luck!
