Regarded by many as one of Volkswagen's most aesthetically pleasing offerings, the Karmann Ghia stood as a distinct departure from the Beetle's appearance while sharing more commonalities beneath the surface than differences. This harmonious creation emerged from the collaborative endeavors of three notable entities, each contributing to the vehicle's name. Volkswagen, the driving force behind the project, entrusted the esteemed Italian design firm Carrozzeria Ghia with shaping the car's form. In turn, coachbuilding company Ghia took on the responsibility of constructing this automobile, further cementing its reputation as a prominent player of that era. Today, we present the opportunity to acquire a 1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia, a vehicle that embodies this intriguing history. The current owner attests to a comprehensive refinishing process, encompassing both its exterior and interior, resulting in a renewed visual allure. Imposing an even more irresistible proposition, the odometer indicates a mere 17,000 miles of travel, a testament to its remarkably low usage over the years.
The 1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia, a car of such historical prominence, finds its perfect visual counterpart in a vibrant shade of red. This choice of color seamlessly encapsulates the vehicle's distinctive character. As indicated by the owner, the car now boasts new lights, imparting a remarkably crisp and pristine appearance to the lenses. Mounted on the vehicle are a set of aftermarket aluminum sport wheels, adorned with generously profiled tires that not only enhance its aesthetics but also imbue it with a robust and commanding stance that complements its iconic cab-forward design. Accentuating the rear are four exhaust pipes, a visual cue that anticipates the pleasant hum of the Volkswagen air-cooled flat-four engine. Stepping inside, you'll be greeted by an inviting cabin adorned in matching red upholstery. The interior accommodates two low-back bucket seats for the driver and front passenger, alongside a rear bench seat. While modest by contemporary standards, the cabin design was thoughtfully conceived for its era. Instrumentation comprises a 120mph speedometer, a clock, and additional gauges. Practicality is well accounted for with a net-style parcel shelf supplementing the glovebox, while front seat occupants benefit from the presence of seat belts for enhanced safety. Positioned in the front compartment, commonly referred to as the "frunk," lies a small storage space along with the spare wheel, further emphasizing the Karmann Ghia's clever utilization of space.
Under the rear hood of the 1972 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia resides a 1.6L air-cooled flat-four engine, a mechanical heart closely related to the Beetle of its time. Notably, this engine has undergone an extensive rebuilding and tuning process, ensuring its performance and reliability are at their optimal levels. A significant improvement is the inclusion of a Dual Vacuum Advanced Distributor, a modification aimed at eradicating any flat spots in the acceleration curve, thus enhancing the driving experience. This rejuvenated power source propels the car's rear wheels via a meticulously calibrated four-speed manual transmission. Moreover, it's worth noting that the vehicle's electrical system has been meticulously overhauled to adhere to the precise specifications of the factory harness wiring, an endeavor that underlines the dedication to preserving the authenticity and functionality of this classic automobile.
