I wonder if it's the same part as used on the VW Samba!

It might actually, Karmann-Ghia, Beetle and Samba all shared the same engine blocks, from what I recall. …it's probably still better to ask a car mechanic. On 04.01.19 23:04, A.

Or at least post your smb.conf, we tend to base our diagnosis on it.

And yes, they did all share similar if not identical blocks which was very similar to the vintage Porsche designed by the same man. My family used VW Beetle parts to keep my dad's Porsche alive when I was a child. He got his first Beetle in pre WW2 Berlin, in medical school. For those not familiar models, the Karmann-Ghia was the sports model. It could fairly easily top 130 MPH with a Porsche transmission replacing the less robust VW transmission, which was a drop-in replacement, and with enough weight in it to keep it on the road. The Samba was the "VW microbus" of "Alices's Restaurant" fame. Squarebacks, Fastbacks, whatever the shape of the shell, the parts were a lot like good quality freeware. You could swap in the parts you needed from another vehicle with little difficulty, and they were cheap enough that you could carve them if you needed to.
