My Dad has just picked up a 1960 Karmann Ghia

that is still registered and he needs a passenger side rear pop out window and a rust free (
or nearly) engine lid for the roadworthy.
Can you guys & gals please let me know if you have anything available?

Hi Jnr,
I think the glass has just been broken, but I haven't seen the car yet?
I'm sure he'd be interested & he's just in Eltham.
I told Dad just to cut the rust out or bog it & paint it for the RWC.
Do you know if anyone does replacement weld in repair panels?

As Mark said; hard to get rust free.. usually gone along the lower inside edge.. Not sure about panels but google House of Ghia..

Thanks Tonz & Sam,
Dad will probably tackle the repairs himself, will let you know if we need a hand
