1966-7 Ghia 450 SS at the Dayton, OH Cars and Coffee, Carillon Park

You never know what you might see at Cars and Coffee, particularly the day before the Dayton Concours. Below are photos of a very rare car, Ghia 450 SS. Only 52 cars were made, and perhaps only about half of them survive. Why 450? the car is powered by a Plymouth 273 cubic inch V-8 (4.5 liters), found in the Barracuda. Sold in Beverly Hills, CA,  the car is another example of American-European hybrids of the 1960s.
