Thinking of returning it to stock again.
Can anyone help out with the following:

-chrome window surrounds
-front seats
-front and rear bumpers ( can swap for good late ones...)
-speedo (is this the same as beetle?)
-steering wheel ( is this same as beetle?)

hey i have the same year ghia as you, am restoring from a bare shell so basically need everything.

So far I have established that volksbahn in greystaines are importing ghia parts, from USA I think.
Failing that it seems that CIP1 in California are OK but the freight cost can be a killer.

Lucky underneath its a beetle otherwise we may as well have brough porches huh.

I think the steering wheel and speedo are the same as a beetle and may be able to help,i can send a photo of the dash if that would help,the bumpers are available in stainless steel for about the same cost of rechroming.PM if interested
