This car sits right next to my property in the woods. Who knows how long it's been there!

I just got LR3, and I'm really liking it!

Too bad. I had one for a while & they weren't bad cars for what they were.

They were a fun little car. My Dad had one and was rear-ended by a dump truck. That was the end of the Karmann Ghia. Nice if not sad shots :)

That is such a pity. Maybe somebody will find it and restore it back to its former glory. Nice processing as well.

Drove mine from Pitt Pa to Vegas back in 86 , not a single problem , other than a slow climb over the pass in Colorado.

Nice capture.

I learned how to drive a stick shift driving on logging roads in one of these.

I wish I could. I always found these cars interesting. But, after getting up close to this one, I've come to like it even more. I wish I could get it. But, the owners of that property won't let anything go. It will rot completely before they sell it, much less give it away. :cry:
