Trying to find some original side trim for my '60 Ghia.
If anyone has any/knows of any, would love to hear.
Obviously, the straighter the better.

In a hurry?
This for the Mango?

Not a huge hurry.
Yeah it's for the Mango.
I have some repro stuff which I bought for the schwarz KG but it's not as good as the OG stuff.

Wouldn't bother mate looks like we have a buyer for the Ghia now anyway.
Its going to Sydney so he'll probably flare the gaurds anyway

Wouldn't surprise me.
Will probably stick an luft scoop in front of the windscreen too.

I heard through a contact that the guy from the US making those beautiful, detail correct billet deluxe bus bumper deco trims is considering making a 'perfect' repro of the Ghia side molding, even the early lowlight ones with the seperate inserts for the ends. I'll follow it up and find out.

That'd be good. Though I don't think I've ever come accross a perfect repro of anything.
There are a couple of US companies already doing side-trim repros, but neither are quite as good as the original stuff from what I can see.
