what a tool I usually HATE v8 conversions in VWs, but this Ghia doesn't really put me off all that much. If I'm going to see a V8 conversion done, I'd prefer to see it in a Ghia or else maybe a squareback. I've seen much worse, I reckon. |

Wash your mouth out and go and stand in the corner Lol, I know I'm playing devil's advocate here, but somehow the Ghia doesn't look as "cartooney" as a Bug with a V8 does... believe me, I'm one of the first to say how much I can't stand V8 into VW conversions, but for me this Ghia ain't too terrible. Not what I would do with the car, by any means, but what the hey.  |

This car is actually quite cool. It tool me 10 minutes to do a walk around at a recent show. There are a LOT of interesting details that can't be appreciated by a casual glance. Those are front fenders on the rear. Olds tail lights. Bolts in the trim holes. Carson style top (hand formed). The engine cover is treated uniquely. Shows what happens when you aren't hampered by preconceived notions of what works. |
