About 6 months ago a crack appeared in the paint on the roof by the gutter at the rear of the passenger side.
Unfortunately Brackley Paint who did the paint work have now changed hands but the good news is that Frankie who worked there and knows the car well now runs his own paint and bodyshop. I took the car into Frankie's body shop today after removing the gutter trims and we popped out the rear screen. The roof will be repaired and resprayed ready for me to collect and bring home on Thursday morning, ready for prepping for next week's Sandown Park VolksWorld show. Here's a link to Frankie's website.

Originally focused on the restoration of my November 1961 built (1962 model year) Type 3 Karmann Ghia (343) I have now extended the blog to cover the ongoing ownership of my 1964 built (1965 model year) RHD type 3 Karmann Ghia (344) purchased in 1982.
