As mentioned in an earlier email, we have been looking for a VW Karmann
Ghia. A near cousin to Forward Look since Virgil Exner had some hand in
designing the car at the same time he was designing the Forward Look cars.
Chrysler was approached early in the concept of the car but beyond Exners
involvement, they apparently did not continue or participate.
Well, we finally found one and picked it up a few weekends ago. For anyone
interested, you can see it at http://www.infopage.com/vw/ . Click "Ghia
Story" for a long winded description of the weekend trip to pick up the car!
On a Forward Look note, I have yet to have time to get the Belvedere out and
take pics of the newly finished interior. I hope to have that done soon and
post pictures. I will let you know!! On the 2nd of this month, I spent all
day working on the car fixing little problems that should make the car safer
to drive. Looking forward (pun) to some warm weather now!!
See ya, Joe.
