Lovely engine in that Ghia. Thanks for report and the pictures! I wish weather can be so warm that we also need beer coolers for our beer.

It was a SECRET cruise, dude.... Scott is pretty touchy about who gets to see his Ghia.  I meant to post this when I started the thread:


To All
There seems to be much confusion and misinformation regarding the status and condition of my Ghia. Let me say to all that the car is in excellent condition and has been stored for several years. Unfortunately rumors continue to run rampant about about its condition. I cannot and will not attempt to address them all. Let me state in the most unequivocal manner that I can as is possible:  the car will NOT be brought out to ANY shows in the near future. While I do plan to bring it out in the future, it will be on a selective basis and without any notice. Thanks for your interest in my Ghia.

All of those cars are nice! Smiley Cool to see completed cars that haul a$$ actually being driven on the street! How do you guys keep them nice and still drive em'? My car has been in primer for 10 years and everyone bumps it, crashes into it, leans against it (etc) and I have to pull the "Charlie Manson" routine on them for damaging my car!  Angry Takes the fun outta driving a classic car...At least sometimes!

What size and brand are the rear tires on the blue 64 bug behind sarge's car (last photo posted as of now)? That car looks really good with the combo it has (popouts, wheels/tires, vert decklid etc) Smiley. It seems like more guys build the 65 and up cars and you  don't see as many pre 65's.
