It was a great Volkswagon though...lol...lol.

The only thing Porsche about it was its badging...lol,

It should have just been called a VW Karmin Ghia...lol.

Those are as hard to get into as my Spitfire, at least my Spitfire doesn't have a top.

A friend had a Ghia when I was in high school. He also had a split rear window VW...

I'm gonna be the kid with the oldest car. Mine's a 63 dodge dart. I also have a 48 willys. I won't drive her because I don't have the money to get her going.

This is one of the more interesting projects I have seen. I really love it.

Long = stable at speed might be a pain in tight maneuvers, but for the kind of speed that thing can probably reach, it will be a dream when you are cruising along.

seat post brace built up, it is really strong just tacked together, but more x bracing will follow. the breaks are set up minus the cable, the shifter probably will be a sequential foot type, kinda like a motorcycle. maybe i will get lazy and just have a bar to step on. i need to design and print a throttle bracket/linkage, re mount the tank, continue to add bracing from the trans mount to the seat bar, tie the seat bar to the engine, build a transbreak/engine protector, weld an aluminum sprocket mount to the wheel somehow come up with a small power source to power the neutral light. paint it, dump gas in it, and go delete the yard/rear tire.

You might be able to use a rag joint or hub adapter to get a sprocket on there.
