Some advice maybe.  Go find a complete bug running (with engine/trans) or not. This way you will have a ton of parts and nut/bolts that you don't have to tramp all over the country looking for. Even if some needed parts are about worn out, at  least you may have something to repair cheaper than trying to buy new . Of course you should replace some things like all brakes pieces. Just a thought.   Have fun.

If you really want one, I have a rolling pan.  It's a balljoint, IRS unit that is solid, has full brakes at the wheels but no master cylinder or lines that can be used both floor pans are already gone, probably not a big deal for you if you need to shorten it anyway. There is a full beam with steering gearbox and I can probably square you away with a steering column and a jacked up steering wheel.  ;D  I also have a pair of front seats for a late model Beetle I can throw in the deal too.  No title, just bill of sale.

Give me a call at the shop, we will be there this week to Friday and after that we will be back at it 6 days.
Rick.
