I sold it to matt rose in primer before I got married, then painted it blue for matt. I saw it in orange about 10 years ago and beat, with stock wheels. Freddy's ghia I just painted, Remember <Terry Buick> Long time ago

I bought the car from a guy here in Chicago, who purchased the car in theSan Fransico area and drove it back here. The before shot was his picture and I am not sure where it was taken.

Nice pic Mat!
from the top photos of yours, at the top is yours truly! Then Robert Kong's stunning CLC car, Susy Herbert, Roger Crawford, and finally Rick Oliver.

In the second group, Hans Huber's blue ghia is truly a refugee from a bygone time. Still active, running low 11s pretty much the same as it was years and years ago, and a stones throw from where I live
Also the lowered blue race Ghia belongs to Nor Cal racer Jeff Newcomb.

Both Vegas and Sacrameto were great and had a lot of very cool cars out. That shot of your car, is that on Fremont? Cool place.

Hi Matt who owns the gold ghia, fricken nice, sets perfect.

Not sure, either Sal or I snapped it up in Norway a couple of years back but given it was at SCC someone on here will probably know.

LuftsickTero, that teal Ghia in your top photo looks a lot like my old buddy Mark French's car from Texas. Is that who is or use to belong to as it looks like it has european plates on it. I heard it was sold a while back but I know not where it went.

Mat, yeah that was on Fremont Street in Vegas in '07. The last year the show was there. It was fun. Getting the car to the show was an adventure.

I think it's in Germany now, somebody won it in eBay auction, there was some funny story about that auction and how it ended up in Europe too.

Here's the only decent pictures I have of my brother in law's. This pic was taken right after Bug-in 1980. The trophy and plaque was a prop. I think the VanWilgens placed in thier dragster that day. The paint scheme was a variation of the Super Shops cars that they were giving away as a promotion. It's a crappy scan of a old picture but the colors were very tasteful and looked really good in person. The second picture was the club DVW picture from VW trends where you can see the front. The front had been smashed pretty good at one time so Gene filled the vent holes and welded the headlight rings to the fenders and filled them. The purist probably wouldn't approve, but it turned out pretty good for a beater! Gene VanWilgen was a master with Bondo!! He also did the 2 chops on the right.

Dang, Dustin... those pics sure take me back. I remember that Ghia, D.V.W. (still have one of their cards), and I was at that VW Trends photo shoot at El Dorado park, as well. Fun times! Super Shops. Haven't heard that name in decades. I drive by the old Long Beach store on P.C.H. & Orange Ave. every morning, on the way to work. My friend, Randy, painted his Ford mini-truck those theme colors like that Ghia. Used to love beating those trucks on the road, back then.

Here's a shot of Tod Fuller's and Kevan Wood's cars at one our many club events, during the early '80s.

HA HA! When I pulled the page out of the "Archives" (aka: shoebox);D I noticed on the back was the DKK info like I included at the bottom of our photo. I didn't have any other pics to look for your car but figured you would recognize it!

Well, at least your "archives" vessel is much more sophisticated than mine. Which is the same mustard box that I've had my old pictures in since I was 19 or 20.

 ;D

With the way I live, they SHOULD be in one of my old Vans shoe boxes. D'OH! But the mustard box is rather big, so it houses those great memories. I'll have to scan that VW Trends cover... unless Fabian beats me to it. HAHA!!
