French Cal-look Karmann

Last week this Karmann re-appear in a meeting, it was built in the early 90s (or late 80s ?), maybe one of the first cal-look Karmann in France.
Maybe Fabs you have more pics or an article in Super VW Mag ? I will check mine but they are not old enough I think.
My pics, it seems it's still in the same shape as it was 20 years before.

Looks to be a nicely built car, but I think I'd put chrome bumpers, light trims and handles on it. Other than that, it seems to have aged very well!

Could this be the old Jeff "Eggs" Benedict Ghia that once was on the cover of Hot VWs, shot on the Balboa Ferry about 1978-79? If so, it was once the World's Most Beautiful VW"....
