Doing this on a budget...

Not made of money I am.

So heres what I was thinking of doing with my 70 beetle:

2.0 Type 4 (need to know where to find the conversion tin)
Dual 44IDFs
Some kind of exhaust (don't know where you all find the awesome ones)
Maybe something else to bump the performance, I don't want a trailer queen

944 trailing arms
944 brakes
944 wheels
sway bars
bilsteins
other little suspension goodies (camber plates and stuff)
Roll cage

For the interior I was thinking of using 944 seats (since 944s are plentiful and cheap to get crap off of) or just a set of corbeaus, along with harnesses. Remove the back seat (save a little weight :P) remove the running boards (opinions on that one please) and just find little interior things to do (tach is a big one)

As for the body I was thinking of just painting it white, and black out chrome, except the side trim which I think I'll just remove.

And other ideas?

I'm trying to stay low budget
