Hi ,
you can buy lots of new stuff from vintage vw at campsie nsw, speak to Corrinn, or try The karmann ghia company in WA, both very helpfull, approx 3 hour time diff from NSW to WA, both have some 2nd hand stuff as well, also, i have some parts avail, just let me know what you require & i'll see what i have.

Enjoy!

The Australian companies mentioned above plus Classic veedub in Sydney are all good. There are also some good places in the US such as ISP West which are worth a try. I bought a heap of new rubbers and the side chrome strips when over there for work - about 2/3 of ghias made went to the US so they are not considered as 'rare' there.

Enjoy your ghia, mine is a '63 very similar to your '61.

Cheers
