Hoopie’s Hot Rods is back with update videos on the Pria Ghia project. The goal is to install a 1971 VW Karmann Ghia body over a 2004 Toyota Prius chassis and powertrain which includes a 1.5 L 1NZ-FXE inline-four and CVT automatic transmission. In the videos below the builder explains how the Prius chassis/wheelbase was shortened and the Karmann Ghia body and doors were installed.
