YOU HAVE JUST BEEN DAKED
don't worry it's a VW thing
rust! All the usual places, sills, pillars Check for repairs in the nose, you can get a good look from inside the boot.
Original verts would have had a Karmann folding convertible top which would be nearly impossible to replicate. Fakes would be dodgy vinyl roofs that fix on with buttons or something.

Originals also have a glass rear window that is hinged at the bottom and have a release catch in the centre of the top of the glass. You undo the catch and let the glass fold down so you can open the roof.

Lots of money 😉
I am sorry, I just couldn't resist. My friend has a 61 KG but it was restored already so not sure what problem areas to look out for....wish I could be of more help!
I know you want to have a good look inside the nose because once hit they are supposedly very hard to get straight again.
RUST and lots of money in your pocket.
ghias consist of 3 panels in the cross section of the body work..... this traps moisture whuch creats RUST
Make sure all the trinkets are there eg bumpers taillights, headlights seats,
stay away from a converted convertable
You see Dave knows...........oh hale Dave
