“I acquired this automobile new in 1974. It was and remains my 1st new motor vehicle with 53,530 miles on the odometer. The Karmann-Ghia was made by Ghia and developed by Karmann applying a VW system frame and operating equipment. It has a rear-mounted 1600cc air-cooled engine. I purchased the car or truck with the optional aluminum wheels and later extra a more robust entrance anti-roll bar and rear anti-roll bar in addition to a ceramic exhaust. The Karmann-Ghia was produced from 1955 by 1974. A twin to this automobile is on show in the Volkswagen Museum.”
