edit - oops - looks like ya missed out on this one...!

Where are you located? Will help with responses

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...!

Im in Newcastle so something around Sydney would be ideal.

I've just sent you a pm.

I'm based in Sydney.

Call me if interested.

The one already previously mentioned for sale in this thread by esevwbits should fit the bill perfectly.....

thanks guys will chase up the leads.

Merry Xmas to all.

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.

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 tintin you still interested in selling?

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.
