My old girl has recently gone from a stock rocker to an old school custom (bolt on only, I hate drilling hole). The list of mods to come is a mile long so keep an eye out on the forum and watch her change. She actually won best Karmann at the Blast from the Past in Berry at her 1st show in Australia ( I'm a proud dad, lol.) More pics to come
Check out the pics below.

sweet ride !!!
I love the KG's and hope to get one when i grow up 🙂
That picture looks familiar 🙂
Nice ride!
I nicked the pic from the flat four web site, as I still can't get my pics under 50k. Thanks guys.
My little girl now has a set of whitewall, which really sets her off. I'll post an updated pic soon.

That is one sweet ride
If you can't laugh at yourself you can't laugh at anyone else! Because life is to short not to LAUGH
Hmmm, nice work bones, I'd love to own a KG...
Does anyone know of any Karmann Ghia nuts in the Melbourne area. I'm after some little ghia goodies.

White walls look great and really suit your ride.
So whats next as you tick off your list?

hey pete that looks great.
lets hope that they don't rub like your other tyres!
some people are like slinky's
they have no useful purpose
but they are fun to watch
when you push them down the stairs
Next on the list is T1 2.2Lt with 44 IDF's or 48 IDA's. I'm also looking at dropping the old girl on her guts. I'm also toying with a supercharger at the moment.
Lee, there actually the same tyres with latex paint on whitewalls, $30 ea, from the whitewall guy in Sydney.
That is hot. I love the KG's. Will buy one, one day ..........

Home made, I actually used a chromed curtain rod from a hardware store with black rubber chair stops on either end. All up it costed about $15.00.
Looks pretty cool and adds more shinny bit to the engine bay.
I might hinge bolt it to the bootcatch so as that only half the chance of slippin and a bicycle pump type spring clip at the side to hold the bar and not allow it to rattle..
thought may be a bathroom towel rod ao what you called it.
The steering wheel looks a bit woglike if ya dont mind.....to me...he ha ho yassou.......bit lairie
what brandname him bee.

The steering wheel is actualy a Billet repo, you can pick them up from Autopro for $280 and $350 with the bosh.
It's actually called old school custom, not woggy.lol.
If you thinl thats woggy you should see all the shiny bits in my garage for my prjects.
You'll find it easier to keep the bar in the car. I keep it beside the drivers seat near the heater channel and it dosen't get in the way or bounce around.
