orange ghia bow

From my photo vault - at the 2002 KW Bug Out. I couldn't decide which photo was better of this beauty orange Karmann Ghia, so I posted both. Both make great desktops for your widescreen Ghia fans.

    I would imagine the great style of the Ghia made your job easy. Don't think I have seen this view and certainly the photographers of the 60's, when the car was new and hot would'nt have thought of it.

    Such a beautiful color!

    My sister had a Ghia, not sure of the year. It had a gaping hole in the floor behind the driver, that she kept covered up with cardboard. It reminded me of the Flintstones. :)

    It's by no means a good shot of Karmella, butthis is our 1968 Ghia. She's currently "wintering" at the German Supply shop, getting a gas heater and chrome pin stripes installed.
