I explained the other day how the VW-Porsche 914 replaced both the Porsche 912 and the Typ 34 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia. I’ll come back to the Typ 34 tomorrow but today the car that started the Karmann Ghia story, the Beetle based Typ 14, produced between 1955 and 1974. Origins of the Karmann Ghia name - design by Carrozzeria Ghia of Italy and bodywork by German coach builder Karmann. From Techno Classica Essen 2014. #WeirdCarMastodon #davidsdailycar #VW #KarmannGhia
