Got a karman ghia box up for grabs.

AO code, complete drum to drum but the brakes are shot.
Nice ratios for a light car with a good motor but I'm all IRS here.

Seems OK but came with a project, so untested, but the project car came off the road because of rot in the chassis.

£150

Jim, correct me if I'm wrong, an AO is from a 1600 Ghia? Be very interested if it is...

Yes mate, it's the high ratio box all the bus boys love.
Seen them fetch daft money, but I've never driven this so can't guarantee it.

Bottom line as its you, if you buy it and it turns out to be knackered I'll give you your cash back  ;-)up

Hi, i have a 1600 engine (AD) tin port, based on a 1960 beetle.

Would your gearbox be a straight swap from my one, then all i have to do is swap over my drums and brakes ?
