This 1968 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia convertible, located in Canada, underwent significant refurbishment after being acquired by the seller in 1997. Its body was restored with new panels and repainted in pearl green. The car features a 2,110cc flat-four engine paired with a four-speed manual transaxle and includes modifications like 90.5mm pistons, Empi 110 camshaft, and dual 44mm throttle bodies. The vehicle also boasts 15" Porsche 914-style wheels, a lowered suspension with an adjustable front beam, and four-wheel disc brakes. The interior is updated with gray cloth and black vinyl upholstery, alongside VDO instrumentation and LED exterior lighting.
