I have an old hot vw from september 2001
in that issue there is a canadian ghia convertible built by a guy called Brad Lang - it was featured as killer ghia on the front page
i have searched google etc for more info on it but cant find any
it is the best looking kg i have ever seen
im interrested in more info and pics of the whole car
the pics in the hot vw are great but there is so much work done on the front suspension alone it could cover two pages

That car was sold a couple of years ago and now resides in sunny California somewhere. Definately a nice car.
