This car was owned by a very good friend of ours that recently passed away suddenly. We are selling it for his wife since she is liquidating many assets in order to pay her home off.
I will try and find out any further info you need on it but will give you the basics that I am aware of.
It is a 1974 Karmann Ghia-I believe the color may be original. It is actually in very decent condition and as far as I can see looking it over, there is very minimal rusting. The floor boards are pretty firm. It does start and run, but carborator needs to repairing to run proper. The mileage of 63,388 I believe to be accurate but have no way of knowing since owner has passed. I know there is suppose to be something about this car that is rare but again have no information on it since owner has passed.
Our friend bought this to restore as he has several other cars he had already completed.The title is in hand and all the parts appear to be present.
You are responsible for shipping or towing and the sale is final and "as is". We do have it listed locally as well and may end the auction early if a sale is made. If you win the bid or auction, deposit is non refundable since we will have local ads and buyers we will not sell to if we believe we have a buyer off Ebay.
Car is located just outside of Knoxville in Maryille Tennessee. Please ask any questions you have and I will try to answer them as best I can.
On Feb-12-13 at 11:54:19 PST, seller added the following information:
I have had messages asking these questions so will answer them on here in case anyone else was wondering. The car does not appear to ever have been in a wreck and looks all original. The motor will start and run with new battery but it cannot be driven home since we cant promise you it runs good. The tired are not inflated but rims are original and look fine.
I can make no guarantee about anything on this car since owner has passed away and his wife simply does not know much about it. It is solid, looks to be in very very decent condition. If you want to come look at the car prior to bidding, you are more than welcome to do so and bring any mechanic you would like but car will have to be towed. It does not seem like it would take to much to get it running. When he 1st purchased it, we have seen it driven on the property and down to the store so we know motor does run but that was a year or so ago and he was never able to start work on it before he passed away.
It is however, a super vintage car and from what I have read, it is well sought after in this condition. As you can see from the buy it now price, she isn't asking for an unreasonable price. She believes her husband paid close to asking price for it himself and the price is simply trying to get that back as well as advertising fees etc. If local buyer makes the purchase prior to auction ending or buy it now is not used 1st, the ad will be removed.
We thank you very much for looking.Feel free to ask any questions. We will do our best to get you the accurate answer.

Peugeot will prove it doesn't offer cheater diesels
Thu, Oct 29 2015Our diesels are clean, really. That's the message from French automaker PSA/Peugeot-Citroen as it plans to go on the offensive in response to Volkswagen's diesel-emissions scandal. PSA will go out of its way to prove its diesels are as clean as advertised. The company is looking at disclosing "real-world" fuel-economy statistics as soon as next spring and will use an independent entity to vet the numbers, Automotive News Europe says, citing comments that PSA/Peugeot-Citroen financial chief Jean-Baptiste de Chatillon made to reporters this week. Such efforts may be vital, since roughly two-thirds of the vehicles Peugeot-Citroen sells in Europe are powered by a diesel engine. Last month, VW admitted that as many as 11 million of its diesel-powered vehicles were programmed with software designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. The news shook up the industry, especially companies that sell a good chunk of diesels. The EU itself may start instituting "real world" fuel-economy and emissions testing as soon as 2017. French regulators have said they may eliminate diesel-fuel subsidies that currently make diesel fuel cheaper to customers than gas. That adjustment may occur as soon as next year, since it's been pushed up in response to the VW scandal. Peugeot-Citron continues to reiterate that it has never installed software that was designed to cheat emissions-testing systems. Additionally, the automaker was more than a decade ahead of European Union mandates for engine components designed to cut soot emissions, so the company is hoping its track record makes a difference. It wants to be perfectly clear about that.

Car Club USA: CleanMPG Northwest Rally
Tue, May 19 2015Car Club USA heads to Los Angeles for the CleanMPG Northwest Rally, where a group of like-minded hypermiling enthusiasts led by Wayne Gerdes attempts to drive from Los Angeles, CA, to Bend, OR, on one tank of fuel. For this challenge, Wayne tapped some of the most accomplished hypermilers in the world, including Guinness World Record holder Bob Winger and Mike Sefton, "the most fuel efficient driver in all of Canada." It doesn't take long for the competition to get heated. "They're not aggressive enough, and it's not going to save them anything by being soft right now," says Gerdes as the group attempts to navigate the Interstate traffic. "Driving in Los Angeles is a hyper miler's nightmare," says Winger. The trip will challenge both car and driver, while putting the latest fuel-efficient tech to the test. Wayne is piloting the Volkswagen Golf Sportwagen TDI, Sefton drives the Audi A3 TDI, and Winger attempts the trek in a Honda Accord Hybrid. It's diesel versus hybrid tech on this fuel-efficient trip of a lifetime. Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog.
