CUSTOMER INFO: No car manufacturer makes all items on cars they sell. Typically, 50%, or more, of assembly line parts
are made by independent suppliers. VW is no exception. Dozens of outside frms, like Hella, Bosch, and SWF once made
parts for Ghias. Often, they still do. Lenses, seals, switches, and a host of parts are still made by these Original Equipment
Manufacturers (OEM). We are pleased to supply many OEM parts for your Ghia.

Warning: Life was once simple. Earlier ONLY an original lens, (made by Hella) existed for Ghias. Now, besides the True-
Hella lens, 3 unique repros from 3 diferent molds are marketed as 60-69 lenses. At least one repro borrows the Hella
logo.Ordering a lens from a catalog that lists only one lens? Gottcha! Which of the 4 lenses will they send?
Worse, if you pay big bucks, assuming it is for an OEM lens, is that what you get?

unit is embedded in the plastic of the rear facing refector. If the mild steel embedded bolt is rusty or
corroded, trying to remove the nut will break either the plastic or the bolt. In either case, youll have
no way to reinstall the refector.

Ego Marks: Since the invention of hand-held body grinders, every "would be" bodyman who ever
lived, thought that he and he alone, could scalp paint without scarring in-place chrome and mold-
ings. All tried. None could! Result? Used chrome pieces on a Ghia almost always exhibit these Ego
Marks sanding and grinder scratches on even the best piece of chrome. So, on many used chrome
items, it is often not a question of IF they have Ego Marks; but a question of how much scratching
can be endured. Condition of the chrome often dramatically changes the value of a used part. Don't
expect perfection. Be willing to accept tiny defects for a substantial price break.

Ghia Tip from JP: Look closely at a license lite housing the pod. Housings are cast metal on all but the earliest Ghias.
Somehow, the castings end up concave. No problem, until a restorer installs the fat bottomed lenses. Then, even with the
seal correctly installed, there is a disturbing gap. Everyone wants to draw up the lens by tightening the mounting screws,
"Just one more turn." Crack! The mounting tabs on the lens break. SOLUTION: Use a very fne bead of silicone rubber seal-
ant on the seal face contacting the metal housing. When tightening screws, silicone glue acts as a gasket, giving a gapless
seal.

Important Ghia Tip from JP: After accidents, few body shops take time to correctly rebuild headlite
bucket tip. At fender end there must be a lip or channel about 1/4 inch wide, which circles the head-
lite opening. The channel looks like a simple, low buck, garage bracket used to hold garden hose.
What! It is not there? From the seal's point of view, there is nothing but a fat sided "clif" (cunningly
crafted of Bondo) for the seal to attach itself? Well, how in the____ is the seal going to ft? I estimate
at least one headlite tip channel, or lip, is damaged on 80% of all Ghias. Lack of lip is a quick test: Is
your Ghia a virgin in the Fender Bender Derby held on public streets? Does your eye tell you this lip is
part of the fender tip? T'aint so! The headlite bucket carries the lip. For a good ftting seal and chrome
ring, you may need to replace the headlite bucket. Fortunately, replacement is a cheap, easy task, IF
done at the correct time before painting.

Customer Note: Choices! Choices! Ghia bufs have never had so many important choices on parts. Use common sense!
Think quality! Don't be guilty of penny-wise/dollar-foolish logic. Where's the savings if a few pennies cheaper seal only lasts
half as long? Or takes twice as long to install? Or screams"I'm ugly! I don't belong here!" Today's brick hard seal is tomor-
row's cracked rubber. Buy parts to out survive you. You are not going thru the pain of a major restoration so your Ghia will
end up a junkyard yard queen.

The straight straw represents the rubber

mon is a working defroster rear window. Don't expect to fnd a used rear window without numerous "broken wires". Restor-

Hood & Body Seal Section
How to fnd a good ftting front hood seal
Step 1. Suppose a latched lids bottom is the arrow. Wow! Seal B is pre-crushed. The
lowered lid, or hood, wont even contact the seal. Seal A nicely contacts bot-
tom of decending lid and fares-out, giving maximum contact.
Step 2. Suppose line below the seal cross sections is the bottom width of hood seal
channel. Whats this? Seal B couldnt fll channel, no matter how hard you tried!
Step 3. Look for quality sponge. Generally, given the same fexibility of sponge, the
larger the trapped air bubbles, the shorter seals life span. Smooth, thick,
outer skin? A long-lasting seal!

Ghia Tip: To install air vent grille seals, test the length on the grille and trim/stretch if needed. (Yes, you should gently pull on
the seal to 'set the rubber'. It is only from that point on that the seal will return to its original length.) Using an ordinary stapler,
staple the ends of the seal together in the groove. (Yes, that's the high-tech method that Karmann used on the assembly-line.
They don't call a Ghia a hand built car for nothing!) You may need a tad of glue to control the seal in the corners.

Ghia Tip: Karmann used many ways to mount deck lid seals. All were attempts to bend seal around sharp curves. Glue
was a common but inefective technique. All still use glue, but also use push nuts on the 4 posts found in the trough. . If all
else fails, drill a small hole thru the lower fap of the seal and into the metal channel. Use a self-tapping screw with a large
washer. Put your holes in the end and in the 'curve' of the channel.

Customer Info: Do you shop by price alone? Price and quality are often related. Low price,
low quality. There are exceptions! But, in a competitive market, it is madness to assume
quality accompanies an unbelievably low price. Take the above seals. You wouldn't want

EXTERIOR MOLDING KITS
We strongly urge using new clips with new moldings.
Why the concern? There are several molding kits on the market. Quality
ranges from superb to not-so-superb.
Used trim is hard to fnd for many reasons:
1) Each piece on a side is of a diferent length.
2) Each molding uses a diferent angle or bevel at the door opening. (Only front of door trim swap side for side)
3) Two non-interchangeable molding clip slots exist. Wide slot used plastic clips. Narrow slot used metal.
4) Two distinctly diferent cross-sections of trim exist. (i.e. arrow-head/hatchet-shaped, or softly rounded)
5) Each of several suppliers, over the years, made subtle changes in the trims profle. (Often to make it more
generic.)
6) Each trim lost, or wore away, its bright, metal, anodized fnish at a diferent rate. Even one side of the samepiece of trim can

There are two distinctly diferent headlight rings being ofered for the 64up ghia.
One is a fne repro of the original 64-up ring. The other is a good quality Brazilian ring. It does
not look or work like the German ring. But, in pairs, it does the job inexpensively. Look at the
cross section diagrams. B, the Brazilian ring, is fatter. Also, note the rear, outer edge of the Brazil-
ian ring is sharp, while the front, inner edge, nearest the seal beam bulb, is curled under. A, the
German OE style ring, is just the opposite. You can be sure that if a supplier lists headlite rings at
the price of a Big Mac dinner for a family of 4, you have found the Brazilian ring.

Consumer Info: Got troubles with the lever assembly located in your glove box (68-74)? Buying a new
cable won't solve the problem IF your cardboard (papier-mache) glovebox walls are collapsing! You
need to buy a new, plastic glovebox in the Interior Section. You may have to drill out old rivets, and
drill new holes in the plastic glovebox. But, fnally a box is available that is sturdy enough to not fex
when pulling the cable.

Rear hood lower inner lip is a design faw. It catches water, slowly rusting out lower lip. We suggest
dipping or treating the decklid to kill rust in those drain channels. Good used lids do exist, but
virtually all of them will have a certain amount of rust to treat.
All rear lids are interchangelable.....to a degree. The diferences are mainly script type and locations.
But there are other diferences to consider as well. When ordering a lid, please call or email with
your Vin Number. It will help us determine if we have a correct lid in stock for you
LICENSE LITE HOUSING EDGE TRIM
Consumer Info: You may think you can buy a good, used, lic. lite housing and merely paint and bolt it on. (Plug and play!)
Think again! The housing's trim (molding) is always dented. Always! As in, There are no exceptions. Best to rebuild your
housing using the trim and clips listed below. Then, never place your Ghia so it can be attacked by other drivers who paral-
lel park by sound. With Detroit iron, a gentle tinkle means the bumpers are mating. With VW's, that tinkle means untold
chassis violence . AND, the other guy will drive away unscarred!

SO YOU WANT A GUARANTEE!
HOW ABOUT A LIFETIME GUARANTEE? WHOSE LIFETIME?
WILL THE LIFETIME BE LIKE ONE OF THOSE PRORATED BATTERY OR TIRE GUARANTEES?
JUST WHEN THE BATTERY FAILS, YOU DISCOVER , YEP, THE EXPECTED LIFETIME OF THE PART IS OFFICIALLY OVER?
We, at House of Ghia, look at things a bit diferently. Why pretend our parts will last a lifetime, when we
all recognize wearable items will eventually wear out. The pleasant retail fction consumers can buy items
lasting "forever", is just that: fction. Not only does such a guarantee demand an impossibly high quality
product; a very well defned defnition of "lifetime"; it requires a retailer who is still in business when "life-
time" questions come up. Besides, how does a retailer handle two or more quality levels of parts. If both,
say, "Gismos" have lifetime guarantees, then isn't price the only real consideration? We
turn the usual lifetime guarantees/warrantees on their head.
We guarantee your satisfaction! You must be pleased with any of our parts! If not, return it for a no hassle
refund/replacement. Note, our policy puts the burden just where we think it belongson the retailer. If
we are not accurate in describing our items, if we unnecessarily infate product claimscures gall stones,
baldness, and unpleasant personalities; as well as polishes silver and prevents tooth decayif we create
excessive expectations thru product pufery or "creative" advertising; the consumer will have vastly in-
fated visions of our parts. Any frm will sufer massive returns when hype created expectations collide with
reality. The moment of truth is when the customer opens the box, or tries out the item.
If we are honest in our descriptions, and timid in creating galloping expectations that can't possibly be ful-
flled; we will NOT cause the defated expectations that lead to a food of returns. Besides, the more a buyer
knows, the better a consumer he will be come. And, who better to educate the consumer, than the retailer.
JP-ism: Finding serviceable, COMPLETE doors requires understanding aging.
When Ghias were relatively new, fnding a complete door made sense. Now? Well,
imagine a surgeon trying to repair Joe Average, a 25 year old male, whose heart
was damaged by Cupid's Arrow'Buba' Cupid, all around low life. As a transplant,
a heart from a brain dead teenager who thought pleasure was snorting WD-40
sprayed into plastic bags, is found. 'Hey' you say. What a swap!' Fast forward a
few decades. Grandpa Moses, a crusty 77, wants restoration. Shopping stores like
Cadavers R Us, and Guaranteed Low Mileage Organs, no good pumps are located.
Finally, a donor. Percy was hit by 200 psalms, when the song book was accidentally
dropped from the choir loft. 'Perfect match!,' cries the salesman at the Tissue World
Superstore.' `Why, these gents are only months diferent in age. What a proftable
coincidence!' Halt! 'Big bucks' and this transplant could happen! But, I'll bet, no life insurance
frm will wager money on Grandpa Moses surviving long enough to see Halley's Comet return. Similarly,
what makes you think grabbing a 25 or 30 year old door of the shelf at any wrecking yard, even House of Ghia,
would get you a door without most, or all, of the following problems: Scratched glass, worn regulators, loose hinges, thread-
bare felt, decapitated guide plugs, 'gripless' door locks, or sloppy lift mechanisms. The door you want? Always the door opened
/ closed absolutely every time a Ghia is useda pristine left door. Consumers! Act according to your car's age!
Door Section
From late 56 and up, all Ghia doors will ft the opening and bolt up at the hinges! Incredible! However, they DO difer, almost
yearly, at the door lock / striker end, and in other details, mattering only to hardcore restorers. (From Ch. # 2-960-113 up).
For pre-60.5 doors, call or email. We do have them in stock on occasion.
All Door skin, outer. Dished metal cup under handle as with 68 up. VW never made a door
skin, only the more expensive complete shell. Had they, it would be this completeness/
quality. Flanged and lipped as OE. Replaces outer skin as assembled at Karmann. Truly nice.
Requires drilling spot welds.

Quik Tip: Early doors, thru 60, used a main door seal tapering to a fne point. (See drawing B) Elegant,
but, casual brushing easily peeled the merely glued seal from the door. Karmann cast a circular ball at
the sponge seals end, and provided a small hole (pencil diameter) at the spot where the seal ended.
Crush the sponge 'ball', and force it thru the small hole. When released, sponge pops back into shape,
but the ball is trapped inside the door. Now, the seal won't be casually knocked loose from the door.
Consumer Info: Door locks (latches) stick out from end of door. The latch, like an iceberg, is only 1/10th seen. 9/10ths are hidden
inside the door. The door is secured when the latch and the striker mate. Most Ghia latches have a design faw; the mechanical
worlds equivalent of a rogue, genetic defect. After decades, the question is no longer IF your door latches have the fatal faw,
but WHEN it shows up. Used locks are little help. They, too, carry the fatal faw. Quickie, do-it-your-self, cures, (like in-place, tack
welding), give only momentary relieffollowed by total collapse. (See Ghia Gab reprint: Closing In On Hinges!)

An entire era of outer Ghia door handles ('56-'63) is infested with chrome 'pimples' and deep pot-
marks; because a crucial ingredient in zinc die cast (or 'pot' metal) was ignored or was not available.
So, everyone has the same problem. Ugly, ravaged chrome. You guessed itgreat looking, used,
chrome handles for the era seldom exist. Karmann made up for the problem on the 64-74 door
handles. They are twice as nice as need be. 'Bullet proof chrome'.

Note: There are two diferent shapes to the 'trigger' on 68-74

wouldn't realize there is this slight change. But, when buying used

How to keep the door glass from rattling? Karmann had a problem by the late 50's. As the scraper
rubber/door felt wore, the door glass could move wildly from side to side. The door slot was a done
design , AND there was no way to install nuts/ keepers on backside of any plug used in the narrow
slot. Karmann's idea? Design a plug exactly the diameter of the mounting hole. Any movement of
glass brushing the plug would 'cock' it in the hole, keeping it from falling out. Of course, installation
meant getting the plug exactly at the right angle in relationship with the hole. A sometimes frustrat-
ing task. Freeze the guide plugs. They shrink a little and make installation easier.

Want to cause a future Ghia restorer much anguish and grief? Never replace your door slot felt. As felt wears, ages the metal clip
holding it in place becomes more and more exposed. Finally, when your fuzzies aren't fuzzy anymore, metal clip to glass contact
takes place. Yep! Felt clip trauma explain those mysterious 1/4 in. wide bands of light scratches streaking up/down, especially
your left hand door glass. The problem can be nearly universal. At one time, House of Ghia had 25 used, left hand convertible
door glasses in stock. Not one was immune from light felt clip scratches.

Jim P.: How do you know if your window regulator is in old age, approaching senility?
Window regulators, even a regulator at death's door, seldom stops lifting the glass up and
down. They just stop lifting the glass all the way up. Then, human nature being what it is,
you crank extra hard on the last inch or so of travel. Close that gap! As surely as death and
taxes, what little is left of those last, few crucial gear teeth is ground away. Even if the glass
seems to travel all the way 'up', if it does so at a slow and sluggish pace; you'll soon have a
death in the door. What's this? You are tempted to use TWO hands on the crank? Your regu-
lator is already dead. You should be arrested for corpse abuse. And, please, don't convince
yourself, "Just a little grease and this regulator will be as good as new" Look closely at it.
See the powerful, 'clockwork' spring? At its center, it is held by a large split rivet. What? The
rivet is broken! Think about it. What is the spring's purpose? Of course, it is to help supply
some of the power to lift the glass. That broken split rivet, like cutting Samson's hair, has taken a lot of oomph out of a
power lifter. Now, inspect the gear teeth. They should look like gears. What! They rise to so sharp a point it would make a
Nail Bed sleeping Yoga advocate nervous. You have major regulator problems! One fnal note: Lets say most of your gear
teeth are fne; Only 1 or 2 % of the teeth are bad. Lost 2% of the teeth? The regulator is 100% bad.)
Rebuilt window regulator: ,Regulator cleaned; dismantled; huge gear and notched rivet replaced
w/stouter version; gear & unit assembled and re-adjusted. H of G.

Modern styling in '55, demanded the 'hardtop' look. Trash those heavy, cumbersome support posts
holding the door & quarter window glass. Detroit achieved a sexy 'hardtop' look by making quarter
window glass disappear into rear fender. Karmann cunningly arrived at the same look by making the
quarter window glass stationary, while designing its support post as thin as possible. It is the "If you
can't see it, it doesn't exist" trick. But, soon there were complaints about the car's lack of ventilation.
Karmann now faced the neat trick of designing a pop-out quarter window; and, yet, keeping a hard-
top look. Pop-outs, by their nature, require hefty support pillars. Karmann gained pop-out windows
by cleverly borrowing what was already there. Instead of rubber seals sliding in the thin, "almost
invisible" aluminum post, 3 one inch long plastic blocks slid up and down the channel. They were
'pinned' in place by self-tapping screws coming in from the front of the chrome post separating the
door and quarter panel glass. Being plastic, these blocks had fexibility enough to let the the glass
pivot slightly. This allows the back end of the glass to "pop-out". Presto! Ventilation with relatively
fxed windows; and, overall, the invisible hardtop look.

ALUM. / QUARTER WINDOW SEAL CHANNEL PARTS
Metal molding (trim) between roof and main seals. Great used channels DON'T exist. Ours are decent. Use thumb pressure to shape.
Consumer info: As a manufacturer, Karmann avoided metal to metal contact. It caused squeaks and groans. The chan-
nel holding the quarter window seals in place, was a prime candidate
for squeaks. Solution? Simply hand ft a thin rubber seal between the
channel and roof. But, for speed on Karmann's version of an assembly
line, a quick bead of silicone "bathtub caulk" was used on the similar
aluminum channel holding the main door seal. However, the crafts-
men quickly realized the seal intended for the quarter window, also
worked just dandy at covering up gaps/faws in the door seal channel
to roof junction. I estimate 30% of all KG's came with a seal in place of
silicone caulking. A seal is an even better idea when reinstalling used
channels. The lips on the seal hide gaps and misalignments. Redoing
your headliner? We stongly suggest using two sets of G3Q-853-34P.

Controversy: Wood verses synthetic (plastic) bows. Since the frst polyester fg leaf, Adam and Eve have been bickering over
the advantages of synthetic vs. natural products. To this day, no harmony in Eden. Top bows are no diferent. Plastic and
wooden bows each have their supporters. About the only facts both sides agree on are these: 1) Thousands of synthetic
bows have been successfully installed. 2) Synthetic bows look positively crude in comparison to fnely grained wooden
bows. 3) Synthetics cost lesssometimes a lot less. 4) Few people would choose synthetic bows if they were the same
price as wooden bows. Virtually all other arguments are biases built on emotion.

TOP FRAME SEALS/CABLES
Consumer Info: With most seals, low quality shows up thru vastly increased installation time. So it is with the following seals.
The Econo version may take 5 to 10 times as long to install correctly. The quality diferences mainly concern 3 areas: 1) Easy
access to the insert bar channel. 2) The softness and fexibility of the rubber. And, 3) How faithfully was the original profle
followed. (Some of the extrusion dies were obviously made by machinists who knew nothing of how the seal functioned.)
Of these seals, it can be truly said; "Pay me a little more now, and I'll save you a lot of agony ,anger and money, later."

72-74 Convertibles cleverly used an insert bar on the main header seal. The header seal was no longer sponge, but more
like an elaborate door sweep. Several frms repro the seal as a straight extrusion. What this? The insert bar and header are
both curved. But, all repro seals are straight? No wonder they don't ft. Suggestion: Use the earlier header seal. It is simple.
Easy to install. Efective. (It worked for 15 years). And, cheap, with no insert bar required.

Two potential problems with wood or synthetic bows. Neither is a product faw! 1) Installing cabriolet tops requires lots of
staples. Quality hardwood or plastic bows are less tolerant of misangled staples (but, therefore, hold staples better) than
softwoods, pressboard, or paper tack strips). Many upholsterers, weaned on crude Detroit headers, hurry the tacking pro-
cess. Insuring the tack gun is correctly angled to the work brings success. Run and gun or shooting from the hip won't work
on quality headers. 2) Convertibles fex! Steel topped cars, don't. VW 'verts rely on pan and rocker structures to provide the
only support holding the front and rear halves of the car together. Your pan! Rusted? Rotten? Rockers! Swiss cheese? You'll
have fex problems!

Twisted wire cables can be made as cheaply as a budding capitalist's conscience allows; AND still have the look of quality.
Figure 1 x19 lays down 1 strand of wire and twists 19 similar strands around this center. Figure 7 x7 lays down a central core of
seven fne strands and twists 6 similar bundles around the core. Figure 7x19 uses 19 very fne strands to make a core and then
uses 7 of these 19 strand bundles to make a cable. Given that each diagram represents the same overall diameter cable, which
wire is the most fexible? Sure! 7x19 strand by a huge margin. Which will be the cheapest? Which is stongest? Rule of thumb!
The more fexible the cable, the less strength. Strong, truly fexible cable is expensive. Suppose each strand is made of mild
steel. Oops! The most fexible mild steel cable (7x19) now becomes the cable with the shortest life span. Why? Because each
tiny strand rusts easily. Why not use stainless steel? Cost, of course. Want even more strength (for a price)? Braided instead of
twisted wire is super strong. Unfortunately, claiming one's wire is "Aircraft cable" is meaningless. No industry standards! Does
it mean surplus Albanian Airforce wire? Or?? Be assured! House of Ghia does not play "games" with either the quality or price
of our top cables. We use the fnest cable. It exceeds OEM cable in strength, fexibility, longevity.

Rockers
also called sidemembers, heat channels, rocker box, sills
(by any name, the foundation of a Ghia body)
Lets build a Ghia rocker, the foundation for the entire car. Most of a rocker structure or box cant
be seen, so well build the straight section under the doors frst and add the branches later.
Because these pieces are so uniformly long, and narrow, weve pictured only the last few inches.
When we fnish, we will have constructed a rocker box for the right hand or passenger side.
Start with a 4 foot long piece of metal that isnt much more than 4 inches high. Thats what
well call the central divider. The rockers central divider, is never ever seen (Step 1). Now, add a
vaguely C shaped piece of metal (also 4 inches high and 4 feet long). This piece too, is seldom
seen, but it can be viewed if the carpet under the door is pryed up . So, lets call it the rockers
carpet wall (Step 2).
By welding these two pieces of metal together (Step 3), youve created a 4 foot long hollow
metal straw. Air, heated and pushed by the engine, uses this hollow chamber as a highway. The
hot air ends up at outlets near the drivers toes. (Air is even pushed to the dash defroster vents.)
Caged or blind nuts are installed in a fat horizontal section of the rockers carpet wall. This al-
lows the rocker to be bolted to the Ghias frame or pan.
By design, this hollow straw is exceptionally light-weight; yet, very strong. By adding an addi-
tional piece of metal (Step 4), the rocker structure can be dramatically strengthened at little
penalty in weight.
Lets call this third piece of metal (Step 5) the outer rocker. It is the only easily seen part of the
rocker structure. At that, only a 3 foot section, directly under the door, is visable.
These three rocker pieces: carpet wall, central divider, and outer rocker cover are all that is need-
ed to make a stout foundation for a coupes body. But, a convertible doesnt have the extra rigid-
ity a coupes metal roof adds. So, for more strength, the factory installed a convertible stifening
plate (Step 6) between the central divider and the outer cover. The convertible stifener is little
more than a piece of channel iron Swiss-cheesed for lightness. Thus, four pieces make up the
rocker of a convertible. (The factory sold a replacement part they called a side member. It was
merely a pre-welded central divider and carpet wall. Once, over the parts counter, side members
cost an easy $1500).
A Ghias foundation could run straight along the cars entire edge. But, the wheels get in the way.
Forward of the doors, the rocker curves, or bends, inward to avoid the tire.
This curving, or dog-legged, piece is seen by lifting the carpet at the base of the area known as
the kick panel. Well call it the kick panel base (Step 7). A kick panel base looks like an upside
down, curving section of household rain gutter. To make the kick panel base into a straw, weld
on a fat bottom. The fat bottom would contain caged nuts allowing frame, or pan, to bolt to
the rockers. Add the curving kick panel to the end of the heat channel portion of the rocker and
create the entire inner rocker area (Step 8).

Consumer Info: Installing fenders or rust repair panels? Cutting, massaging, fnessing, welding and tal-
ent are needed to correctly install Ghia sheet metal. Quick-buck operators give rust repair panels a bad
name. Pop-rivet them on. Slap on lots of "bondo". Paint for $49.95. And re-sell quickly before the fender
rots of. That's one way! In your haste to condemn the quick-buck method, don't mistake the quality of
our panels. Installed correctly, these are as stout, good looking and long-lasting as original metal.

Imagine this scene. Returning from 6 months of life in tropical heat, you've just thrown away and burned every last piece
of smelly, rotting clothing you own. Now, to hit the shower! Just as you start to rinse, comes a loud knocking on your door.
"The Pope is here. (Or the President, Mother Teresa, or 60 Minutestake your pick.) Suddenly, as you frantically search the
closets, you remember burning all your clothes. You ASSUMED you could get clean clothes. What should be the proudest
moment of your lifeand you have to meet it with all your shortcomings exposed for the whole world to view. Never as-
sume! Just because House of Ghia lists fenders and other neat, rare goodies in their catalog, it doesn't mean, when you
need them, they will be available. On crucial parts whose availability is fast dwindling, the best advice has ALWAYS BEEN:
Get all of your vital parts before beginning restoration.

The headlite bucket looks like half a scooped out melon. The bucket tip forms the necessary lip for headlite ring/seal. Your
headlite area ever damaged? Replacing buckets restores chrome/seal gap. 70-80% of all Ghias need at least one bucket
replacement. A beautiful paint job actually highlites crummy ftting chrome and seal. Do your fender a favor.
Yr of Ghia How later (64-74) headlite buckets work!
56-59 Any bucket listed works IF you use 64.5 up chrome rings and adjusting assemblies. Results? Headlite unit is
not fush to fender. Far easier bulb adjustment. But, it wont look museum stock. Only one in a thousand can

60-64.5 Any bucket listed works, and looks authentic, IF you use 64.5 and up chrome rings and adjusting assemblies.
Your era parts wont ft the newer buckets. What? You are missing some of your era chrome or adjusting
parts? It will be easier/cheaper to buy all new buckets, chrome, adjusting assemblies rather than fnd high
dollar NOS early bucket parts. Results? Undetectable from stock, EXCEPT headlites adjust easier.

Ghia Info: (Quarter panel, lower rear) The lower rear quarter panel (KQ-809-095/6), fts 60-66 Ghias after MAJOR changes. The lower rear
quarter shape is diferent. A competent body man can make it work. (Then, a competent body man could make the panel from scratch.)
"Making it work", requires darting the metal and reshaping the panel. So, we don't suggest trying to make the later panel into an earlier
version. HOWEVER, two later panels can be used on 60-66 Ghias. The cars fank will look like a 67-71 Ghia. Only 1 in 10,000 will be able
to spot the diference. THE BAD NEWS? Stock 60-66 rear bumpers will NOT ft. (But, the superb 67-71 repro blades and any similar era
assembly-line bumpers will ft nicely.)
60-74 Taillite to rear apron. When installing new metal along the bottom
or lower skirt of the body, this piece fts from just below the center of
the taillite inward to rear apron seam. Includes a 3 inch corner of the
rear deck lid seal channel. U-must cut slot for rear bumper arm. Mates
nicely with Qtr. panel lower rear pieces, and with the rear apron.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT SHEETMETAL
Rear apron, lock panels, etc.
Consumer Info: Many used sheetmetal pieces are available in de-
cent, used condition; but you must know exactly what is wanted,
describe it completely, and wait a few days for us to cut it of. Then
expect expensive truck shipping charges on large chunks of sheet
metal. Finally, be realistic! The youngest Ghia is nearly a quarter of
a century old. Some parts have had 5 decades of 'life'. Used sheet-
metal is not likely to be pristine; nor is it priced that way. Have a
heart. At 90, will you be glamorous and unblemished? Call those
lines and brown spots, character marks.

Engine "foor" sheetmetal (rear lock panel, battery tray and air cleaner platform) are of two basic styles and a seemingly
endless series of variations. For example: battery mounting hardware changed totally at least 4 times between 66 and 72,
and changed again before 74. It is unlikely replacement sheetmetal will exactly duplicate what you've got. The frst style of
foor, up thru 66, uses a smaller engine opening. From 67-on, the later large opening was used. So, there can be no mixing
and matching between basic styles. One fnal problem. The frst part of the entire rear end of a Ghia "laid down" by Kar-
mann on the assemblyline were these 3 engine "foor" pieces. There may be no way to remove these 3 pieces (especially
the side pieces) without, Humpty-Dumpty style, the whole rear end falling apart. In other words: the patient badly needs
a major structural transplant (like a heart replacement); and you're complaining some mild scars will show, compromising
the ability to wear a bikini. Wrong set of priorities!

Got rotten, rusty foor pans on your Ghia? Read about the various pan sections available. Then, look closely at your pan
troubles. Why buy more expensive metal than needed.How can I tell if I need lipped pan sections? you ask. The answer?
A Solomon like response that seemingly evades the question:Dad, how do I know if Im still a virgin? Son, if you have to
ask, you still are! Doubt not! If you NEED lipped pans you know it. Can you reach in, thru the outer rocker, and grab the foor
mats? You need lipped foor pans. But, is rot limited to rusty foors? You shouldnt need lips.
These stamped, weld-in, metal panels are precision pieces with stifening ribs and stamped pockets, as original. Panels use
sturdy, heavy guage sheet metal, as original; not the fender thickness tinfoil found on some Beetle repro pans. These pans
can provide as sturdy and long lasting a foor as any original pan. But, they do require cutting, welding precision measurement,
talent; plus tools and patience. Satisfactory results will not be achieved by a"craftsman" whose only mechanical experience has
been in changing light bulbs; and whose whose most expensive tool is a pop-rivet gun.
Save the following from your rusty pan. 1) seat track runners; 2) L shaped brake pedal stop 3) gas pedal hinge, spot welded to foor; 4)
rubber mat thimbles 5) covered bridge support between front seat track runners; 6) seat belt mounting nuts; 7) insulation pads.

Notice and Warning: Good used bumper pieces are, SOMETIMES, available. Occasionally, these pieces are something you
would want on your own car. Ask! But, don't expect miracles. And, remember, the cost of the part is in DIRECT proportion
to its quality. If you manage to buy a $25 complete front bumper from us, don't expect chrome to rival the brillance of the
Sun, and DO expect surface smoothness matching the Craters of the Moon. Once we had over 2400 bumper pieces. Techni-
cally, if evenly matched by position on the bumper, we had the makings of 300 bumpers. (2400 pieces divided by 8 major,
chrome items per bumper.) Murphy's Law got us! If you needed left hand, say, bumper corners; all we had were right hand
pieces. Want a center front bumper blade? We have 2 dozen, virtually perfect pieces, to which 2 dozen pygmy-brained
former owners have drilled huge holes in order to screw down the front license plate. The rear center blade must have
an "Abuse me" label etched on it. What else explains the number of welded, screwed, holed and hammered attachments
found on these blades. Want to take your cello on vacation? We've got bumpers with a built in cello rack. Do you transport
your 500 pound mother-in-law in a wheeled Lion's Cage. Well, we've got the bumper hitch for you. So, just because you
want it/need it doesn't mean good, used, reasonably priced bumper pieces are available instantly. Still, couldn't hurt to ask!
Of course, Murphy's law rightly will tell you, moments after fatly telling a customer, "Fresh dinosaur steaks would be easier
to fnd!", an entire herd of bumper ends will make an appearance in our yard.

Look closely at the two diagrams of a right hand rear bumper corner.
Assume the brace for mounting the tip of the bumper to the fank of the
car is at exactly the same spot on both bumpers. Why one bumper cor-
ner is LONGER than the other? True. The reason? All Ghia bumpers were
designed to stop at the beginning of the wheel opening. From 56- 66, the
Ghia wheel opening resembled a half circle. From 67 thru 71, the design-
ers tapered the back edge of the wheel opening in an efort to make the
car look as if it were in motion when still. This meant the bumper corner
had to be ever so slightly shorter on the late cars. Quick Test in the feld. If
two fngers ft between the bracket and the tip of the chrome, you've got
an early corner. If no fngers ft between the tip and the end, it's a late cor-
ner. The practical result? All late corners (and present repros) ft all years.
An early corner on a late car will stick the bumper visably into the wheel opening. Late and early corners do not visually mix
and match. So, be careful when assembling a bumper from a pile of used parts. Apply the Quick Test to all rear corners.

Ghia Tip: Using too long of a mounting bolt on your 56-71 bumper
often puts a chrome "pimple" on the face of the blade or the bum-
perette. Use care! Don't tighten bolts completely to the last ounce
of your strength! Use washers between bolt head and the bumper.
Disassembling bumpers? Got lots of broken rusty bolts? Agony!
Use stainless bolts and grease threads before assembly.
Ghia Info: Ghias and Beetles came from Germany without license
plate mounting hardware. VW had long known it could not antici-
pate the shape, location or size of license plates dictated by gov-
ernments. So, the Mother Firm left it to the national sales organi-
zation (For the USA, VW of America) to come up with hardware.
VW of A hung the plate from the center of the front overrider tube
with clamps. The only non-metric bolt on your car is likely to be the
cheap, quickly rusted bolt coming with the dealer installed clamp.

From 66 thru 68.5 (Ch #148-381-366), VW used a troublesome, hard to diagnose, complex "thermal
wire", 9 terminal relay working as BOTH the turn signal and the newly required emergency lite fasher. It
was not one of VW's better ideas. If any one of the 9 circuits failed, all were messed up, sometimes mys-
teriously so. The relay was used only for 2.5 years, was expensive then and, today new, can be ruinous to
your bank balance. Enter Yankee ingenuity. A true electronic, simple, cheap, far more reliable solution;
a relay with some nice touches. A failure of the T-sig relay won't mean throwing away the entire unit.
Components can be replaced. But, these easy installing relays don't LOOK like the era black box. So, fnd
a working, used, original, install it for shows, and let it ride in the glove box the rest of the year. (In other
words, why wear out an impossible to fnd original relay. Use the great repros.)

Entire units. Element is common parts store item.
Cigarette lighters were virtually universal on "Detroit Iron" by the 50's, but were not at all common
to VW's Until the early 70's, VW lighters were commonly dealer installed, so the type and look of
especially the dash knob was nearly unique from car to car. Pre-67 Ghias always used a Ghia-shaped
knob. Of course, spare Beetle knobs were what dealers had on hand. Soft, safety knobs didn't lend
themselves to lighters until VW settled on a universal knob with replaceable 'center' inserts. Even
then, dealers used what they had. What! Your heating element is worn out? Replace it with a generic
element found at Auto Parts Stores. Want a totally new unit? The knob is not likely to be authentic.

Warning: Assembly line relays use outdated technology. Current replacement relays live longer, function better and use elec-
tronic components. But, they do not LOOK like assembly line parts. There are 3 types of relays available: 1) True OE lookalikes,
with obsolete technology: scarce, and expensive. Occasionally surviving 1 or 2 decades. 2) Updated technology, with quality
components: moderately expensive and modern looking. The Methuselah of relays. And, 3) The old technology packaged in
an USA-style cannister: Amazingly cheap, but looks like a marshmellow. Quality depends on country of origin.

INTERIOR LITE LENS
Don't kid yourself! Just because items like interior lenses once existed, and are even illustrated in the
catalog, doesn't mean they still exist. Do you sincerely believe a pristine example is waiting for you
to purchase for mere pennies? Ha! Ha! Don't hold your breath. Most restorers start by buying all the
glamour items frst. Then, when the restoration is nearly complete, they start searching for the
tough to fnd, never to be reproduced goodies. Knowledgeable bufs will politely tell you,"That's
bass-ackwards!" Get the tough parts frst. You can buy the repros at will. Truly hard to fnd parts sel-
dom become easier...or cheaper... to locate.

WIPER MOTOR
Yes! It is true. A 67 Ghia wiper motor (67-68.5) fts most earlier Ghias and is an instant, bolt-in way of
converting to 12 volt wipers. Of course, if you've fgured it out, so have ten's of thousands of other
Ghia bufs. So, here is another "truth". Low supply (essentially, one year only) and high demand (all
those 6 volt Ghia owners) mean a high price, IF any used ones still exist.

REBUILT CLOCKS
Work w/new lens, cleaned, repaired, tested.
Info on clocks: Today's quartz/electronic clocks have spoiled most people. They ofer super accuracy and longevity. But, quartz
clocks were not available for automotive use until the mid-70's. A Ghia mechanical clock is electrically wound. They are quality
clocks, but are to time-keeping as the bow and arrow is to warfare. An extinct technology! We'll probably be able to fx original
clocks, but it will never work so as to lose/gain only seconds a month. Don't expect more accuracy than your clock can give!

WARNING: 72-74 clocks also house the fuel guage. Logic suggests they are two separate systems, each
independently repairable. The reality is that somehow they are intertwined. Yep! your clock can stop your
fuel guage. And, your fuel guage can fuster your clock. We have not yet fgured out what's wrong. Every
owner of a quartz clock (late 73 thru74) has phoned. "Repair my clock!". they demand. Can't do it! No re-
tailer likes to say, NO. But for now, there may not be a solution to your non-working clock.
Info on fuel guages: Electrical guages. The dash unit seldom goes wrong. So frst suspect the electrical connections. Check, clean
and wire brush all connectors. 2nd, Just repainted the car? The pointed mounting brackets for most guages are intended to PIERCE
the paint on the back of the dash, creating an electrical ground. 3rd, Look closely at your tank sending unit. Only then suspect your
dash guage. Mechanical guages only give trouble if the cable or housing becomes brittle/breaks.

Most gas tanks rust from the INSIDE out. Why? Condensation from sitting. A Ghia used daily, seldom
rusts out its gas tank. Extra water is burned before it does damage. So. today's "Garage Queen" Ghia
will be hard on gas tanks. The best replacement gas tanks are new, German breathtakingly expen-
sive and usually unavailable. 2nd best? Your used tank; cleaned and chemically sealed. 3rd best? A
Brazilian or Mexican tank, frst tested with your fuel guage sending unit to insure ft; and then chemi-
cally coated. While not show authentic, in-line gas flters are a great idea. Be sure and clamp all con-

DASH PADS.
Early dash pads, thru 67, were not pad-
ded and were not meant to provide a
soft landing in an accident. The pads
were anti-refection devices. American
drivers howled piteously about refec-
tions in the windshield caused by the
elegant, simple 56-59 painted dash top.
A crinkled, pebble grained vinyl was
VW's anti-dazzle device. Later came US
safety mandated "padded" dashes.
Typical of:

anti-refection pad
Padded safety cover

Slotted defrost outlet opening in vinyl. Typical of 60-69.
Notched defrost outlet opening in pad. 8 inch notch. Typical of 70 only.
Notched defrost outlet opening in pad. 13 inch notch. Found on 71-74.
Dont mistake the metal/plastic cover
plate used over the defroster opening
on 70 and up Ghias as a slot. When the
cover plate is removed the pad itself is
likely to be defnately notched.
Dash mask installation is simple, easy
and time consuming. Patience! Patience! Your
reward? A great looking dash.

Customer info: No solely Ghia repair/ service manual exists. Most mechanical operations are VW Bug. Any "Bug-Bible" has
lots of useful info and useless chaf. We use and recommend, John Muir's "IdiotsGuide" and Bentley's, Ofcial VW
Service Manuals. In the 66-74 manuals, only 1% covers uniquely Ghia repairs. So, the 300 plus pages of Ghia info in the
61-65 manual is doubly precious.
The chart below estimates the usefulness of the 61-65 VW Workshop Manual for the following Ghia owners.

ity photos. 2 1/2 inches thick. Over 300 pages exclusively devoted to
Ghia body information. ASM -616-5BB
Ofcial VW Service Manual. Excellent info, intended for dealership mechanics. Often calls for tools
