This may be a reference to the one in Kill Bill, as Tarantino likes to reference his own work - /v007905.html but it's not the same car. |

From the tail lights in the 3rd photo from the set, it looks like the 1960-69 tail lights. Obviously, the range is too broad. Is the paint an original? |

The paint looks original. If it is, then it would be a 1969. The color appears to be Chrome Blue, which was only available in that year. |

Will be auctioned shortly. https://propstore.com/entertainment-memorabilia-live-auction-la-2020/ "This car, a 1968 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia comes from the production with the VIN number 148836325 and a 2.5L Subaru engine from Jaz Products installed for the actors’ ease with Field Auto Group manual valve body, reverse pattern transmission. In addition to its distinctive retractable sun roof, the vehicle’s many amenities include charcoal-color leather and cotton fiber-backed padded seats, teardrop-shaped brake lights, polished chrome details, and an installed fuel cell. The choice of car is an homage to the one driven by Beatrix Kiddo (Uma Thurman) in Tarantino’s Kill Bill Vol. 2, with the custom paint color personally requested by the director. This is one of two Karmann Ghias used for the production. It exhibits some signs of use from production, including scuffs and some rusting to the front and back bumpers, the body, and the driver’s side door, while the interior and exterior paint have been restored for display. It remains in good and operable overall condition. Estimate: $20,000 - 30,000" -- Last edit: 2020-08-24 04:39:27 |
