Just a bit more about the Type 3 Karmann Ghia for sale. It is original right hand drive, has an original steel sliding roof, has an original heated rear window, has manual transmission with swing axle rear and 'Z' bar (although the body has the metalwork at the sides for the mounts for a CV-joint rear engine carrier) and it is a genuine 1968 model (the chassis number begins with 348....). It has a totally original unrestored and almost unmarked black interior. It was bought new in Britain but spent the first few years of its life in Portugal until the current owner bought it in England. Bodywork restoration and a respray was carried out in England before the second (and current) owner immigrated to Australia some ten years ago. The front suspension has recently been rebuilt with three new ball-joints - hence the car's lovely stiff and sold ride. As I indicated in the last item on this car, I can be E-mailed for pictures of it. When I told the current owner that I could not afford to buy it and thus own three cars, I said I would try and find a good home for his car because I would like to see it go to someone who appreciates Type3s and particularly Type3 Karmann Ghias.
