Interesting Project
« on: September 20, 2024, 20:14:33 »
I saw this on a FB page. Someone put a modified 1974 Karman Ghia Coupé body on a Mercedes SLK320 chassis!

Other than the fender flares and the choice of wheels - not bad!

That's a really good use of a Karmann Ghia body. I'd do maybe white painted vented wheels with a chromed or polished dog dish, like this 190sl Rennsport: https://cars.bonhams.com/auction/22723/lot/356/1962-mercedes-benz-190-sl-rennsport-roadster-chassis-no-121040-10-023145-engine-no-11595412043337/
