Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Volkswagen Karmann Ghia represents one of those unique collaborations between three companies in two different countries: the Volkswagenwerke in Wolfsburg, Germany and Wilhelm Karmann in Osnabruck, Germany, and the Ghia coachworks in Turin, Italy. It also represents the efforts of four men who have all gone down in automobile history for their achievements: Heinrich Nordhoff at VW, Wilhelm Karmann at Karmann, Mario Boano and Luigi Segre at Ghia. From the moment the pretty coupe walked onto the world's stage it went straight into the motoring Hall of Fame. Interestingly, where most coupes of the time had some pretense towards being sporting, generally with a mildly hotted up engine, the Karmann Ghia was simply stock VW Beetle from the mechanical point of view. In other words, it was still a 72-75mph car, it just looked great doing it! And that is why owners loved it. By 1961 VW introduced the Karmann 1500 based on the Type 3 platform to supplement the original. It was nowhere near as successful and was withdrawn from production in 1969, long before its older and more famous sibling. There is a strong and enthusiastic following for the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia coupe all around the world, a movement that seems to grow each year.

Download or read book The Complete Book of Classic Volkswagens written by John Gunnell and published by Motorbooks. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volkswagens are some of the most iconic and easily recognizable cars on the road, and The Complete Book of Classic Volkswagens is your definitive visual encyclopedia. The classic air-cooled Volkswagen Beetle, officially the Volkswagen Type 1, is regarded as one of the most important and well-engineered vehicles of the twentieth century. It was the most popular imported car in America in the 1960s, and before that it enjoyed a humble beginning as "the people's car" in its native Germany. The Complete Book of Classic Volkswagens encompasses the evolution of the popular Beetle as well as other variations of Volkswagen's air-cooled cars, vans, and trucks. Thoroughly illustrated, this is an invaluable reference to Volkswagen's collectible and iconic cars. The history of VW automobiles is just as colorful as the hues they were manufactured in, and this book illustrates the full story. German automakers originally sought to supply their countrymen with an automobile that was easy to mass produce. By 1938, they finalized the design for the VW "Bug"--the first rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive configured car. In its heyday, the rounded Beetle was produced at a rate of more than one million per year. Today, with more than 23 million cars built, the Beetle holds the record as the most-produced passenger car of all time. But the Beetle is only one part of The Complete Book of Classic Volkswagens. The rest--from Type 2 vans, pick-ups, and campers to the Type 113 "Super Beetle"--is included here. If you're the owner of a Volkswagen or if you just love their iconic look and you're interested in their evolution, this book deserves a place on your bookshelf.

Book excerpt: Aufbauend auf der technischen Basis des unverwüstlichen VW Käfer kam 1955 der erste Karmann-Ghia auf den Markt - und fuhr sich mit seiner attraktiven, sportlich-eleganten Karosserie direkt in die Herzen des Publikums. Ob als Coupé oder Cabriolet, er blieb fast 20 Jahre fester Bestandteil der Modellpalette und musste zum Leidwesen vieler Liebhaber dieses Autos schliesslich abtreten, als die Wolfsburger den revolutionären Wandel zum Golf vollzogen. Dieses neue Buch widmet sich detailliert der ungewöhnlichen Karmann-Ghia Story und geht sowohl auf den klassischen Typ 14 wie auch den von 1961-69 produzierten Typ 34 ein, der auf den Technikkomponenten des größeren VW 1500 fusste und niemals serienmässig als Cabriolet erhältlich war. Heute werden alle Karmann-Ghia Modelle als Liebhaberfahrzeuge hoch geschätzt und in restauriertem Zustand zu stattlichen Preisen gehandelt. Das Buch ist umfangreich mit historischem und aktuellem Bildmaterial versehen und wird abgerundet durch eine Kaufberatung sowie einen ausführlichen Datenteil.
