.....I am at a loss for words on the Ghia......That could have been really cool if a little restraint was used......But this is a perfect example of why guys Like Chip Foose make the big bucks - They can do a nuts paint job and it looks so right...... _________________ D-Dubya Manx clone - 63 Short pan,1914.

Except for the dash, I love that Ghia. And I'm a stock nazi. _________________

I like the ghia, but some things have to go, that butt ugly wing for one, second the gauges and that single 6" speaker, if your gonna do custom gauges don't take them out of some 90's pos, put something new in there, I'd rather see a set of all digital gauges
also hood as been repainted, silver doesn't match |
