Ghia Gallery

This page will have cars on it which have caught my fancy. Most of them will have been stolen off of want-ad sites, like www.thesamba.com/vw/, but there may be a few showing up from personal sites. If you see something here with no credit given and you have info, let me know, I'll be happy to add it.

For whatever reason, lately I've had a lot of interest in cars built along lines of a "custom". Not necessarily VWs, but not excluding VWs either. Add to that some time spent on volkrods.com, and I ended up with a design study that's sticking in my brain. I have no plans of doing this to the car I have now, but someday???

Yeah, I know it's obvious these are faked. That isn't the point, I was just playing around with a few ideas, namely lowering the car and chopping the top. I particularly like the looks with the top up now, compared to a stock Ghia. I suppose I'm biased, but I think this would even look better than a Porsche Speedster. When I get more ambitious I may play with rollbars and wheels, though I have to admit, I even like the whitewalls on this thing!
