The car passed its' roadworthy test (MOT) at the end of the week. Just waiting for the birth certificate from VW to be able to submit the registration papers for road use in the UK.
I have a few mechanical adjustments to make following the ride back from the testing station, adjust the clutch cable conduit and tweak up the rear brakes amongst them. Additionally I have some remaining trim pieces to work on, but more of them as they take place.
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.
