Fully restored Beetle chassis/body !
Volkswagen, Beetle. 1972 L Reg.
Here I have what at the time was my pride and joy, a project which I undertook in restoring the Beetle i purchased from a good friend. I had all intention of completeing a full restoration, and Subaru WRX STI Engine conversion, ( which i had sat on a pallet waiting to be installed). Then due to having a young family to support I found the time needed was not available. So grab yourself a fully restored Beetle chassis and shell, in need of paint and rebuld. I spent £900 in panels alone, ( 2x complete floorpans, 2x inner/ outer/ lower/ heat ducting sections, front inner wing complete front nose section, rear wings and rear section) basically any panel I found rotten in anyway, I replaced it, not to mention the hundreds of hours replacing all defects with new panels. This is the ideal platform for any VW enthusiast to finish what I started. Sorry to have to let go but my Dad wants his garage back (after 7 years). Maybe open to sensible offers. If you would like to view get in touch.
