The ride height and stance is just perfect, nice work! That is a beautiful car. My current Ghia that I'm building is one of those bright 60's candy colors, but I think I'll always love the look of a black Ghia the best Cool


Thanks man.
It’s always a comprise between looks and driving comfort but I really like how it sits now and still drives nice.

I like the dual carb kit. Looks like 28PCI carbs? With the big bore and dual carbs it probably has more umph than a stock 1600. It’s pretty rare to see vintage speed 40hp. Well done!


Thank you that’s why I did it. It’s easy to put in a 1600cc but it has no personality.
It’s actually 32pci carbs. The kit is home made i back in 1962, manifold tubing is from the frame of a bicycle. The guy who build it back then is 87 now, I’m going to visit him later this month and let him see his old kit being alive again.
