1959 Karmann Ghia Convertible For Sale
This truly stunning 1959 Karmann Ghia Convertible
has just emerged from restoration, fresh and flawless
and ready for the concours lawn.
Exceedingly rare and desirable "low light" Ghia convertible in
perhaps the most beautiful color combination ever to come out of the factory.
Birth certificate from VW showing that the car left the factory in Bernina blue with blue top and interior.
This was a US "Tourist Delivery" vehicle
which sets the mind off on the sights and scenes that the first owners
must have encountered on their travels through Europe in this incredibly beautiful Ghia.
Owners manual and service booklet in the original folder included.
The restoration of this car is really well done inside and out.
Every detail attended to.
Okrasa tuned 36 horse engine out back with dual carburetors and an Abarth style exhaust.
Wide whitewalls on two tone painted rims.
Stock suspension height.
Some great period accessories such as the radio with under-dash preset tuner
and cool shifter mounted ashtray.
VW logo mudflaps

"Drive in" speaker is not mounted, it is just hanging on the rear seat edge.

More engine detail images to come...but here is a peek.

are in the break in period. Very minimal miles put on the car at this point to retain that
flawless finish.

Still 6 volt electrics .
I love those air filters!
Just wow
Correct Hella logo headlight rings
Chrome is superb
Nose emblem

but all the photos of this car just look so good
I wanted to post as many as I could so folks could take it all in.
The underside is as nice as the top!
Transaxle has been upgraded to a full synchromesh box with
improved gear ratios for modern fast paced traffic.
Stellar level of detail underneath
Wow
Disc brakes are a bolt on set up if you are a purist.
The added stopping power is a nice benefit
Impressed yet?
