1965 Karmann Ghia 34 for sale

I have a 1965 Karmann Ghia that is in restoration condition. Its complete except the front, side and rear lights. The motor is'nt locked up and does turn over with a wrench on the generator. Its going to need floor pans. There's alot of surface rust and rot through on the bottom of the fenders and the usual spots on the Ghia's. If you have any questions, please feel free to shoot me an email or call me. I will answer the best of my ability.

Finally got around and unloaded the Ghia off the tow dollies. I did try to turn it over with the key the other day. But it wouldn't turn over.....It would click, but not turn over. Its not locked up, it turns over easy turning it by the generator pulley. So I will get under it soon and put my remote starter on and try it that way to see if I can get it to run. I don't anything about it from the pe

    Mick G'day Johhny. With a few exceptions, all mechanical parts are shared with Type 3's (fastbacks / squarebacks / notchbacks), it's the body and trim that differ. The floor pan is the same as a Type 3 except for the seat mounting rails and the cross member below the rear seat, but these can usually be salvaged from your own car. Type 3 floor pan halves are now being reproduced by classicfab, or you can try to find a doner car. '66 up brake parts are all freely available from most VW outlets. Not sure what else you may need a complete pan for, but post your requirements in the classifieds or the forums and I'm sure you can sort something out.61 days ago
