Model information
Karmann Ghia
Info
It’s often hard for those working within the motor trade and in this caes, the VW scene, to finish their day’s work and get onto their own project but that’s exactly what Jon White of VW Spares did when he decided to build a Karmann Ghia for his wife Jackie.
This beautiful 1966 Karmann Ghia was worked on in the evening and weekends by Jon but occasionally he would sneak in a few minutes during the working day. And who could blame him, the Karmann Ghia is one of the best automotive designs in the last 60 years.
Our advice is to ask Jon to show you the Karmann Ghia when next buying your parts in VW Spares and you’ll see why this subtly modified Ghia has won awards wherever it has been shown.
