Hi and thanks, ideal would be chassis / body and associated bits. Located near to stoke , I've got a GTV beetle copy running a 1776 I built. Trained in body/mechanical originally so not scared of project.  Had a Hustler project 25 odd years ago but sold before I did anything due to to many beetles.Not got big bucks as for 14year to build/restore

Not to put you off! My friend did a buggy project and it was to be on the road for when he was 17 but got finished when he was 19 but no? one would do classic insurance for him as he needed to be over 23? And with all the no petrol by 2030! The out look is not good..
Do not be offended by my spelling mistakes! Why asking tech? questions" As so far I have not asked Any,, Everyone fort it was in possible apart from the One who invented it..

Petrol and diesel will remain just going to be more ethanol in the petrol which is no good for classics but it is easily removed at home if the info on the net is correct.

Pretty sure it was a "H" plate 1500 chassis had been shortened ,painted gold I think. Body was in white but the light panel at the back had been cut off.
