Thera-Pea - 1973-Porsche Arctic Silver-Karm Ghia Cpe

Well this is no longer "my" car, I still reserve the right to show it off because I am proud of it!  I spent about 2 years "Updating" (she wasn't restored in the true sense) this car.  She now belongs to someone in Atlanta, if you are the new owner and you find us, by all means claim her and let us know who you are :)

She is basically stock running on 5.5" Chromies and with a standard 1600 dual port engine breathing through dual Kadron Carbs.  The only Exterior modifications I made were shaving the front turn signals and putting them in the nose grills.  Interior was another story, when I got her it was badly butchered, I redid the dash to give it the "smooth look" adding a Super Beetle Gauge, found stock seats, and custom made the console and rear compartment area.

If you want the full story on Thera-Pea (up untill I sold her earlier this year anyway) go to The Story of a Ghia

LOL, did he only have it for a few weeks? It probably WAS mine.  I sold it last May to a guy around there and then found the poor old girl on E(vil)bay about a month and a half later, turns out the guy I sold it to, turned around and sold her for a healthy profit to some lady in the area, then she sold it to someone in Atlanta.  I don't know where she is now but I miss her from time to time.  Molly is doing me well though, no regrets.
