in case you people dont know i have a particular bent for t34 kg's .i am a member of the t34 register which is a world wide organization trying to keep track of t34's worldwide. i recieved this email today 540 kg's together cruising to the factory AND 44 t34's at the 1 place together unbelievableThis is the latest news from Tom Reay in Germany at the KG 50th
Anniversary ...
"Here is the low down on the event- It was amazing! 540 karmann ghias
in one place! Of those, (drum roll), 42-44 Type 34s.
When we went on the 40 K cruise from GMH to the Karmann plant the
procession was over 4 K long (Brent Carter´s estimate). Durring the
entire time there were people on the sides of the roads clapping and
waving. I was privledged to ride in Johannes Krasenbrink´s 54,00 KM 1962
t343, and it was fantastic.
The weather has been warm, with only one short rainstorm, the people are
awesome, we have alot of new freinds , the food was been great, the beer
was,uh,,cool,,
and the cars are all of the highest caliber like nothing I´d ever seen
before.
Congratulations to the guys that put on the show - it was the best ever.
That's a truly amazing gathering!
Thanks for the link.
Did you see the cabrio from West Australia?
I have a magazine with a feature of it... one of Jerry Heldt's restos.

Thanks for that Topless, what an amazing event!
Jerry from the Australian Karmann Ghia Company, WA was there so I look forward to his report in VMA later this year.
Sorry I didn't get to chat to you at the Karmann Kruize. Tell us about your T34 - I would love one.
