1958 "Lowlight" Karmann Ghia for sale
Mild restore in the mid 90's Original Pan with no rust Some body rust under rear quarter and nose -- see pics Also some small bubbles on the roof Original crash box transmission Works fine but shifting into 1st and reverse isn't smooth. (re-build in the future is recommended) Not original engine; has 40HP / 12 Volt conversion Interior is not original but in decent shape; tear in seam of driver seat Paint has some flaws & small chips but looks good from 5 ft I have nice clean C-channel trim for front windshield and back window that goes to new owner This car looks amazing for its age and receives complements everywhere it goes. As you can see from the pics, it's grabs your attention. Only driven on the weekends otherwise it's in the garage. I need the garage space which is why I'm selling I have a birth certificate for it Correct 56/58 YOM California plates (If buyer's in CA, they will go with the car otherwise stay) Recently had $4K worth of work done (new brakes, alt, battery, tune up etc, can provide detail upon request) |

Jay Leno brings a rotary-powered VW Beetle to the garage
Mon, Aug 1 2016It takes something really unique or inventive to pique Jay Leno's interest. His show, Jay Leno's Garage, has featured everything from concours-worthy classics to completely custom, home-built machinery. How do you get Leno to feature one of more than 20 million Beetles on his program? Stick a turbocharged rotary engine under the hood. The Beetle's owner, Mario Markakis, swapped the car's stock flat four-cylinder for the Wankel engine from a 1990 Mazda RX-7 Series 5 Turbo. The engine's 250 horsepower are fed through a reinforced version of the Beetle's stock four-speed transmission. That's about five times the original engine's output. It works well, with the car putting down some impressive times at the drag strip. Markakis did most of the work to the Beetle in his garage. In addition to the engine swap, he's modified the car's brakes, suspension, and interior. Check out the video to hear all the details of this custom Wankel-powered Volkswagen.
