Rear 1/4 Trunk Lid Front Bumper Rear Bumper Grille Glass Frame Pictures Description 1974 Karmann Ghia Chassis # 1442666671 This neat VW is presented in trendy orange with a black interior. The paint is believed to be original. There is no doubt that the Volkswagens of the 1960s and 1970s make for great collector items. The car has been garaged for the past several years. The mileage reads as 94,499. The exterior paint is faded and a bit dull. A solid wax and buff would do wonders. There are dings and light scratches around the entire vehicle from normal use. Trim is missing in various locations which is shown in the pictures and the glass shows well. Floors also need attention. There is rust present in the front driver side floor. The rear floor on both sides also show small holes and previous floor patch failing. The passenger side front floor is structurally intact. Pictures will show holes in the engine bay. On the cowl of the car there is a small amount of rust as shown in the pictures. Interior of this Karmann Ghia is in good condition. The seats hold firm and have plenty of cushion. A small tear in the door panel is present on the driver side. The dash is without cracking and the black, convertible soft-top, is new and complete without tears. This car is a true survivor that with some TLC should be driven and enjoyed.
