what's in the "boot' of a K.G.?
 
I went to pick up a floor jack and the young man wheeled in out of the
store and stood behind my '69 K.G. waiting to put it in. I said no,
there's in engine already in the space. He was young. and didn't see the
air intake slots.
Maybe he's never seen a K.G. before. Is that possible?
hey, the car's only 44 y.o.

Karma ; what a concept!

I was running into people twenty years ago who'd never seen a Karman Ghia
(my brother owned one).

And even today I continually run into people who've never seen a Scirocco,
and it (mine) is only 26 years old.

I get people almost daily asking me what kind of car this is. Yesterday, a
fellow thought it was a kit car, designed for the VW chassis.
