The story so far. The car began restoration about 8 years ago by a gentleman who resided in the Dandenongs, he has taken a fair proportion of the car back to metal, but there is still a fair bit more to go, he has also begun cutting out and repairing the rust in the car and from what I have seen he has done a good job, no corners cut, pardon the pun, and also begun smoothing a lot of the dents in the car. It was then sold to a fellow Melburg VW Nut who simply did not get the time to do the project, and now I have bought it and the journey continues. So I picked up the car last Sat 5th Sept, at around 11.30am, and have parked it in the shed and gone through the mountain of spare parts with the car. Then on Sat Afternoon the work began, first was to check all the gaps around the car and inspect all the mounts and mechanical, this being given a clean bill of health it was time to separate the body and the pan. Then I began removing all the primer and then the long task of metal finishing all the previous repairs, and removing all the filler that had been put in, I have made some good progress on the RH front guard, and am now working around the front panels....so much to do Sad ......I am convinced that I am completely mad After checking through the parts I placed an order with CIP in the US and Ill be stuffed all the gear arrived today Shocked, I cant get parts from Sydney that quick Exclamation So the wrap is, the Ghia has already fitted: Ball joint front end with adjusters fitted and Bulk head changed to suit.
