Kicked out the 90‘s Recaro seats and put in some 914 , period correct steering wheel which my son found while we cleaned up a barn , and an original Blaupunkt instead of the fancy digital display radio . Standing on original Sprint Stars , lowered by Kerscher front beam Engine is going to be : 1600 cc C35 cam 36 Italian IDF Full Flow (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200321/e715b3bb91a09d174a5f2022a84cf836.jpg) (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200321/d2029f8796b2a08978bf0c5912e13d9e.jpg) (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20200321/4a2ee082bc7e623f3a7ea3949168ee91.jpg) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Title: Re: 1970 Karmann Ghia Post by: Bryan67 on March 21, 2020, 19:12:59 pm I think it can be.

So it is in and running great ;) I love the Webers in a Karmann engine bay ! As i had the pedals out to put a new clutch cable in , i took the opportunity to put in a roller gas pedal , but i didnt like the black plastic , so i did a quick aluminium one .
