Awesome job man. My dad has a 69 ghia that he is trying to get rid of and i think im going to buy it. I want to bag it really bad. How hard was it to bag it? I've done some work helpign a friend of mine bag his 88 ford ranger, so i know how to do some of it and he really knows what hes doing, i just wondered if it was a real challenge or anything. where did you get all of your parts from?

well done mate ! that is an amazing car and you have done one hell of a job on it. After seeing your car im convinced that i want one, how hard or easy are they to work on ? what problems did you have ? what recomendations do you have ? If you get a chance have a look at my ride.

very nice.
love the air shocks in the front.
I have always planned to get a ghia some day.
j,c, witney has so much crap for old vw engines that puting a car of that age and rareness on the road should be realitively easy, in theory at least.
what are some of the problems you faced with the car?
