Title: Re: 80's cal look ghia Post by: stealth67vw on September 15, 2007, 21:48:05 pm Not mine, but here are a few not public pictures of Joe Hullet's 1970 ghia. I believe these pictures were taken around 84 or 85. My buddies brother painted it. It had an 82 x 88 IDA engine with N20 and ran 12.0s. The wrecked picture was taken the week after it was painted, it was fixed before being featured in Hot VWs.

One of my all-time favorite cars back in the day. Title: Re: 80's cal look ghia Post by: JK Fab on September 17, 2007, 05:04:59 am This car was built in the 90"s but kind of looks like 80's to me with the color and all.
