Hi all

I have a callooked jan 1960 KG
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?)
-whatever goes into the small round hole between the clock and speedo(fuel gauge?)

Anyone that an help out with any of these or knows of where to get stuff from
Much appreciated.
Cheers
Steffen

Thanks

are you also known as BUK ?

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
