My brother got a '68 bug a few months ago. It has a 1500cc motor, 96k original miles, and original paint. We were looking at a Karmann Ghia, but we're too tall to fit in it. Thought I'd share a few pics. :tup:

Damn, that's niiiice. Love how clean and original it is.

As for ghias... Those things are made for tall people, the seats sit so damned low on the floor, a lot of people under 6' have a bitch of a time seeing over the dash.

Nice, I still have mine in the garage, future turbo bracket racer/street sleeper! I had a 68 once, it was blue with a white interior and was converted from an autostick.

Ghia is one of the most expensive VW's to restore, the body work alone can killyou.

That's a clean bug. Your Jetta has come a LONG way too since the last time I saw it.
