I don't have a Ghia but was at the pull apart in Charlotte yesterday.They have a 73 with a repairable deck lid it is rusty and pitted but did'nt look rusted out.Very good tail light lenses.Door hinges were not great but passenger door was in good shape front end was hit engine was still in it but not complete.I did not really pay attention to what all was missing.The dash looked to be uncut but the radio is missing.

The later decklids are desirable, especially if the plastic drain tray is intact. They are a good upgrade for an earlier car that has an upgraded engine, as they flow more air.

Ghia lids tend to rot along the bottom edge, and they can be tweaked around the area where the license lamp mounts. If both those areas check out, its worthwhile picking it up.
