who owns this car? that thing is bad as hell

I think its from the UK

I wish this Ghia was in my garage,thats where I wish it was! :)

That car is from a small town here in oregon called Shedd. My uncle is the fire chief of that little town. story goes it was in a patch of blackberry bushes and couldnt be seen until the bushes were cleared out

Chris at L5vw bought it, then Cameron (camrod) bought it from him made it like it is now then sold it to the uk

Nice story. I like how you kept it before it went overseas. 8)

Once day, I'd like to get a set-up like that.

i dont know what cameron had in his car but mine was a 1600 single port

went pretty good, with the turbo it acted like a 1835. not major HP increase but was fun.
