Tony Miller and his company Translog in York, Pennsylvania specialize in Porsche maintenance and restoration. When a customer approached the company to create a custom VW/Porsche vehicle they didn’t turn them away. The company built “Ghia Monster” using a 1972 Karmann Ghia body they widened to fit over a 2001 Porsche Bosxter S chassis and powertrain. Now the sports car has a classic look while maintaining a mid-engine 3.2 L flat-six making 250 hp and 225 lb-ft of torque, six-speed manual transmission, modern suspension, and four-piston disc brakes.

  1. Used to own a 1962 Carmen Ghia Lavender Convertible.Bought in Chicago.2800.00 Cash New.Wish I Had it now.Beautiful work you do

  2. I would like to know an round about figure on what it would cost to
    transform a 1974 Ghia on to a Boxster? I am aware that the condition
    of each vehicle would have to be taken into consideration.
