@Shaggi6969 Thank you very much for providing those pictures; my regret is not seeing them in time before the auction ended. Your Karmann Ghia really pooped with the yellow exterior. A very fine specimen. I hope you were please with the results of the bidding. All the best!
I have removed the reserve! She is going to a new home today. Thank you for the bids
