Summary
This 1971 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia has been with the same family since new and used regularly for 20 years, featuring a 4-speed manual swap, a 1640cc flat-four with dual Kadron carburetors, and front disc brakes. It has been repainted multiple times, shows some exterior imperfections, and has an interior freshening with tan vinyl and brown carpets. Extensive service records for the last 20 years are included, though the odometer is believed to have rolled once and the speedometer can be jumpy.
