Very cool lowlight! But an odd name for the website: Purist to me signals originality not modifications like this VW certainly has been.

Nice ghia 🤙

Thank you for the content 🙏

It’s really Beautiful….! I have a 71 Karmann Ghia Coupe I purchased from a friend that had it sitting in his yard with a window open,and had not been running in around seven years….! I patched up the floorboards put new seats in it , and it is my everyday driver….! What a Great Sled…! It Always starts , always runs…👍🏻❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Attention!!!! Unfortunately, all petrol cars will soon be banned in the EU and the USA! In France there is a new law prohibiting combustion engine cars called SCHLABOUBVE and in Switzerland the HESCHLAVVO law! In the Scandinavian countries there will soon be a so-called SMORVERBIDEN law) for Germany there will probably be a federal exhaust gas ban ordinance from 2027.

My pops had a square back and two of my older brothers had a 59 and 69 so I have a soft spot for VW's. I never could find a cheap and decent Type 3 notch so I never joined the ranks but it's still cool to see the community striving.

More please 😊

Subscribed 😊 Very nice looking Ghia 👍

wow cool interview and very cool Ghia, been a beetle, Ghia and combi fan for decades....and this is a very very fine example 👍

It,s the suffering for the art, that brings joy in life. Can,t get any lower than the bus☕👍

I detest slammed vehicles.

Volkswagen's every where

A very nice gathering of Vdubs.

No Polo, Golf? Where is it, Canberra?

Your crew had some sick cars. We were your neighbours👍

In high school at age 16, I drove a 1964 K-G. Endured the low power motor until I could save up enough for an EMPI header and other minor tweaks. Enjoyable car which handled reasonably well and gave excellent fuel mileage. A poor boy's Porsche.

Yeah...

beautiful car 👌🏽

I'm viewing this from New Zealand. I spent my childhood in the 1960s. I had a school friend , and he had an Aunt who drove VW Karman Ghia in the late 1960s. It was in beautiful condition i remember and it was left hand drive too. I like yours .

Thanks for watching, please like and subscribe. If you'd like to hear our full hour long conversation with all the fine details about the build process, plus some amazing rolling shots of this slammed Ghia with full ASMR 36hp engine sounds, please let me know in the comments ;)

I have a '57. I love that mirror, what is it ?

Thank you for sharing your wonderful relationship with your beautiful car and the friends you’ve made along the way.

My everyday drive is a 1969 Karmann Ghia Convertible. I love the car and the look. My first car was a 1960 VW Bus. My second car was a 1963 VW Squareback. It was brought over to the US from Germany.

Why didn’t the car move when he got in is it stiff or does he not weigh anything

Beautiful car. Thanks for sharing your story.

Very sweet video! 👍👍 It’s a great car, a really nice guy, a good story about how it all came together and the community around that… and then the obvious sense of fellowship between you two and the others we see and hear about. Thank you. 🙏 I owned a 67 Beetle way back in the 70s, did all the work that she needed for five years, except for mounting tires on rims. Took her on one cross country trip with my wife, from Florida to a family reunion in southern Indiana, and then, on two lane county roads, all the way to Chicago and back. Good memories. Thanks for providing the spark that brought them back to the surface! ❤

Great looking car :D

I wish I saw this when I went to Brisbane instead of losing all my $ at the casino !😂
