VLKWGN airbagged Ghia????
dvs_vw - July 9th, 2007 at 03:24 PM

I got the latest Ultra VW and noticed in the back that this car was for sale, not much info listed, no price, but a website, which also doesn't list a price, it doesn't even mention its for sale.

Does anyone know the owner or know roughly what this car would be advertised for, price wise? I wouldn't say I'm in the market, but its as close to dream material as they come and would consider the possiblity if the price was right.

I don't want to waste the guys time by ringing him just for a rough price, but if no one knows, I will, just thought I'd check here first!

Thanks

Oh yeah, thats what I wish my car looked like, not so low though, never make it out my driveway if it was.

Ha ha posted that last one before I realised, skilled ay:)

Great car though, so clean. Great lines.

Thats a 30k+ Ghia easy. I've got one for 20k if interested.


Karosserie - July 9th, 2007 at 08:27 PM

Hi guys, that was my car. It sold about a month ago. I took my details off the website as soon as it sold.


ancientbugger - July 9th, 2007 at 08:54 PM

I must say I hate it! In fact I hate all KGs and especially that one. Whenever I see one (and it's not that often) I stop liking my own vehicles ! That is just perfect and Karosserie you must be a) Daft b) Stupid c) Incredibly rich d) Incredibly lucky e) or know something we don't!


dvs_vw - July 10th, 2007 at 08:55 AM

oh well, no biggie, can I ask how much you sold/had it advertised for, just for curiosities sake? And did it stay in Oz? I suppose that the problem with UltraVW, we get it months after it would have been in there.

and again, awesome car!

i know where the car is but i am not telling.......shh..........hehe


Dasdubber - July 10th, 2007 at 12:28 PM

Very nice - I'd be interested in seeing some details of the suspension setup if possible? How it was fabricated, also issues of certification (not trying to kick up dirt here - genuinely interested as I'd love to go this way on my splitty but haven't been able to get definite answers about legality etc).

Cheers and congrats on the sale
Alan


dvs_vw - July 10th, 2007 at 12:33 PM

different legalities state to state!

but I'd also be interested in knowing the setup, what was used(as in beam, bags, air shocks etc), how in rear etc, pics if possible?


The_Bronze. - July 10th, 2007 at 12:34 PM

I agree with AB on this one.

Very nice indeed.


oval TOFU - July 10th, 2007 at 03:18 PM

gaah! I can't believe you sold it! I'm not asking why you sold it - that's your business.. I don't understand how you could part with something you put so much effort into creating - that KG is gooooooorgeous!


Karosserie - July 10th, 2007 at 04:22 PM

the suspension set up is 2 airbags on the rear and a single off centre air bag beam up front. refer to the KCW website for more info..
I placed ads all over the place Unique cars, Ultra VW, 911 & Porsche World ect..
My phone has been going nuts, any unfamiliar numbers I dont answer now.
I sold it for the $$$ and I have a kg lowlight comng from the States.


oval TOFU - July 10th, 2007 at 04:44 PM

can't wait to see the low light transformation dude!
You should post up a step by step thread if you can be arsed - i think a lot of people would be very interested.. unless you totally go the opposite direction and just run it rat-style... bwahhahaha


dvs_vw - July 10th, 2007 at 04:45 PM

good work on getting the $'s you wanted, I never saw any of the ads so I'm unaware how much you had it advertised for, I'm just curious to know???


Karosserie - July 11th, 2007 at 11:48 PM

I got the asking price.. 45k.... with my 57 I think i'm going to roll it the way it is for now and just slam it.


dvs_vw - July 12th, 2007 at 09:22 AM

any pic of the lowlight as it is now? How long til you get it?


GASBNR - July 12th, 2007 at 11:01 AM
