og-front-left.jpg (30952 bytes)

 The illustrations here are of a superb late 60's car which has only a few thousand miles and has never been restored. As a result, they are the closest original colour photos I've found. 

(All pictures can be enlarged)

og-engine.jpg (41082 bytes)

 The engine and boot/trunk are in absolute original detail. Even the tool kit is unmarked and the spare tyre still has it's inspection 'dot' present.

Interiors

Very broadly-speaking, there are 3 'marks' of Ghia. Typically they fall into "Early", "Middle" and "Late". Early Ghias are those which are very rare and desirable, dating from before 1960. These cars are especially rare in the UK. Middle Ghias probably had the majority of large changes (engine, electrics etc) and range  from 1960 to 1971. Finally there are the Late Ghias from 1972 onwards, which have the large rear lamp clusters and big, box-sectioned 'Europa' bumpers.

 Early Ghia interior, which, in my opinion, is the most original and better-styled. One of the twin 'gauges' is actually a clock. Some people prefer this look so much, that they equip later models with this classic look.
Middle Ghia interior. This is actually right at the end of the 60's styling, this car being a '71. The twin dials being replaced by a single large dial, with two smaller dials either side. Veneered dash is not to all tastes, especially when compared with painted original, above.

 This late UK-spec Ghia shows how the early 70's had changed the interior to almost total black vinyl and plastic. Twin dials made a strange return for the last few years of production.
