1970 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Coupe

This 1970 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Coupe is finished in black and features the distinctive styling that has made the model a recognizable air-cooled classic. The exterior shows cosmetic wear consistent with age and use, including surface chips, light scratches, and areas of patina around the front nose and lower rocker edges. With its Italian-influenced design, compact proportions, and classic chrome detailing, the Karmann Ghia offers a distinctive blend of European styling and Volkswagen engineering.

Highlights:
- California Car
- Exterior Color: Black
- Interior Color: Light Gray
- 4-Speed Manual Transmission
- 1600cc Flat-Four Engine
- Solex Carburetor
- Front Disc Brakes and Rear Drum Brakes
- Classic VDO Instrumentation
- Dash Wood Fascia
- "Karmann" Signature Badging
- Chrome Bumpers with Overriders
- 15-inch EMPI-style 8-Spoke Alloy Wheels

Power comes from a rear-mounted 1600cc air-cooled flat-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. The engine bay features a Solex carburetor and black fan shroud, while additional equipment includes front disc brakes/rear drum brakes, a single exhaust outlet, and a floor-mounted shifter. A driver-side mirror and chrome bumpers with overriders complete the exterior details.

The interior features low-back bucket seats with headrests, upholstered in light gray cloth basketweave inserts with contrasting off-white vinyl bolsters. A matching folding rear bench seat continues the same upholstery combination. The driver's seat cushion shows splitting along the center seam and wear through the fabric. Additional features include classic VDO instrumentation, a two-spoke steering wheel, an aftermarket radio, and a full-width custom natural wood-grain dashboard fascia with matching upper eyebrow trim. The car rides on 15-inch EMPI-style eight-spoke polished alloy wheels with black-painted accents between the spokes, complementing its chrome exterior trim and signature Karmann details.

An interesting part of the Karmann Ghia's history is its collaboration between three German and Italian automotive names: Volkswagen supplied the mechanical foundation, German coachbuilder Karmann handled production and assembly, and Italy's Carrozzeria Ghia designed the body. Despite its elegant Italian-influenced appearance, the model retained much of the straightforward mechanical engineering found in the Volkswagen Beetle.

This Karmann Ghia will require electrical and cosmetic attention. It can be enjoyed in its current condition or further improved over time. Priced accordingly, this Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Coupe offers an opportunity to own a distinctive example of Volkswagen's air-cooled history. For $12,750
