1978 VW "Champagne Edition" Karmann Convertible

G'day everyone,

My dad and I spotted a VW bug mostly covered over on a trailer coming home from Melbourne today. The guys who were towing the bug stopped for fuel so we stopped and I had a look and had a chat to the owner. He told me it was a 1978 VW "Champagne Edition" Karmann Cabrio. It was a very, very tidy car. Here is a pic I took of the bug...

When I got home I had a look on google images and found this pic...

I read on the Internet that in 1977-78 VW USA had one of these vehicles per dealership.

I will try find out more info but if you wish to search for info just type '1978 Champagne Edition VW Convertible' into google.

Thanks for looking.
