Kinda hard to do, a looooot of kit cars (that aren't sports cars like a Shelby) are built on Beetle frames in the first place...

the shelby cobra? THey are not built on a beetle frame...

Learn to fucking read!

It said a lot of kit cars are built off Beetle frames, and are a far different form of kit involved in cars like Shelby.

Body kit is not the same as a kit car firstly.  

 Secondly they do not make a Beetle Kit car, seeing as the whole point of a kit car is to take a cheap car and make it look/perform like something much more expensive. The beetle is already cheap. They do make kits to turn older beetles into dunebuggies though.



most kit cars are not "cheap cars"... though there are exceptions like those shitty ferrari bodies on mazda frames...

Fiero's are cheap cars and can easily add lambo or ferrari kits.

I've seen T Buckets, Shelby Cobra's, and a few other things, but no Beetle.

i doubt it... and why would you want to? It would be cheaper to buy a new one. Plus the kits do not include engine, drivetrain, wheels, tires, brakes, etc.

I'm sure they have it
marshmellowman Posted at 11:50 am on July 5, 2008
I highly doubt it. You can probably find the body itself for sale, but not a whole complete DIY kit.
