Beautiful build. The color is incredible. Well done.

It's beautiful Mr. Phillips! Well done!

Mr Phillips,you did a great job building that,Carmen Ghia...whether you build more or not...its all good❤❤😊

Built Not Bought!! Great Job!

Nice video. So cool to see so many modern features on the classic Ghia. Love it. Great work capturing it, thanks for sharing.

Nice job mate.

On word, WOW.

That’s amazing

I think it would be nice to get/find/make a Ghia kit for a Generation II Beetle. Yes, yes, I know, it would be a Wanabe Karman Ghia, but it would still be cool.

I did a full restoration on my '71 Ghia by myself. I have to admit that Craig's look better, but also, he looks like he lost a shirt restoring it😂

thought it was a twin turbo but then I realized it was the reflection in the doghouse!

$100,000? I was thinking much more.

I would think the engine would be 15K to 20K. I thought that was very cheap.

What sunroof did he use, looks like tinted glass

Wonder who did the body work prep and paint for him?

Good question, let's hope one day he finds this video and he can answer. I made this video after asking him if I would've been able to find his creation online and he replied: No, never! So, I wanted other people to see what he had put together. A really nice car with so many features and a great guy to talk to.

@@RitmoMotion It's rather an extreme custom. I liked the moonroof addition, that is not an easy task. I just got done restoring my 69 stock Ghia and that was a hard restoration and I did it all myself. Body work and paint and everything else. He just does not look like the type of person who would do the actual body work and paint himself. He looks like a fabricator to me. Thanks for sharing.

@@RadRidesByCru You are correct sir, he did say he did the whole restoration himself. Guy has a lot of talent and time on his hands.

Pretty standard body in my eyes , shaved bumpers and a spoiler

Color is too stealth. It blends into the background. Dare I say Blue or Red would be suiting?

Some times those special parts you need are made of UNOBTANIUM!

I'm surprised he put such a big engine in it. I love the horse power in it, but the rest is a bit too modern for me. He would have been better off just buying a used Porsche.

I could not agree more. Why spend a fortune to ruin a classic car and produce a near-copy of a more recent everyday one that would cost a lot less to buy ready-made at your nearest used car lot?

If everyone thought that ignorantly no one would watch any of your videos because you're just producing copies of "My Classic Car". Far be it for the guy to enjoy a hobby with you and so many used car lots around.

I would have preferred to see more car and less owner on screen.

anyone living in the Carmel Valley, has many millions of DOLLARS, and why not buy something like a Ferrari, which will appreciate, and I would love to see this car make the smog cut, in californium.....LOL ....NO WAY......

Would have looked better with stock vw seats and old style one piece bumpers , mirrors and no roll bar and spoiler. Looks like a 16 or 17 year old design not a older man !
