Fat beetle

Considering building a Baja, so having a sniff around for a cheap ass fat beetle. Will consider anything, but prefer a roller at this stage. Its gonna be chopped up so not prepared to spend a lot on anything decent if you catch my drift. Would prefer a MacPherson strut car, but really not too fussed.

I know of a fat beetle but has some rust and I just chopped out the parcel tray and firewall. It's macpherson strut. Interior gone almost a rolling shell. I would need to check if it's already gone to the scrapper.

It's evidently a runner ?
Never had a chance to even look at it after I picked it up after kustom nats last year ????
