@ssimon64 Don't know what displacement it is, but it definetly sounds like an aircooled flat four. They can be modded to several times their original output, and the one in this video probably had about 200hp - ish.
It does not take a lot of power to move these things: an honest 70hp Ghia will easily walk a 170hp Chevy HHR. Same 70 car will also out-pull a 3.5L Dodge Magnum though 1st and 2nd gear, but they usually catch back up halfway through 3rd, lol.
@Altema22 Thanks for the info. That Karman Ghia is badd ass

@Lightwader3338 The '56 through '72 Ghia has a small back seat that's good for one adult sitting sideways or two kids without legs ;)

Maybe it's because he had a smaller and lighter car with the same sized motor.
This is EXACTLY what I would want to do to a ghia though.

Keep that in mind, all you Corvette owners... that VW in the lane next to you just might spank you and you'd never know it.
