i have a '62 purchased off the 2nd owner, who was a mate of the original owner. S.A. car all it's life, mostly original - resprayed 10 yrs ago, and "leatherette" replaced with leather. The Engine is totally original as is underneath...

i want a small fortune for it.

why...? can't he buy one from interstate...?

a mate of mine just flew from northern nsw to adelaide to take delivery of his KG and and arrange shipping it home...

says he's not scared of rust - might not be afraid of flying either...!

hey mate, my name is gavin I bought vwsteves black karmann ghia for 3k (check his list for photos) - good straihgt car will sell it for 4k - this is still a better buy than the 6.5k car by easybeat. You decide it will cost 1.25k to send to you - you decide I am easy you pay its yours otherwise the restoration continues.

I am flying to mine site tommorow and I will not be back to look at this site until 15th Jan - if you are interested in the details of car ask steve as it is pretty much the same as he supplied as I have been sourcing some really cool parts for the resto.

yeah tintin, each to their own, the car i have for sale is 100% original, comes with reco gearbox, reco motor, original motor, all moulds, all interior bits. all rust sections.
starting january if no interest i will commence rust repairs and have this ready for the easternats. IF someone is keen on the car for themselves, i can still carry out the work and you can choose the colour! 🙂

sorry for hijack, just not a fan of people suggesting they have ' better buys ' when really have no idea.

Hi ashbaxter - Yes the karman ghia is for sale - good straight kg - if you wanted to see several photos refer vw steve's posts when he had two kgs for sale - mine is the black one and is exactly same condition.
